Lauren, Russell and Austin

We had the opportunity to see Lauren and Russell over the Thanksgiving weekend as they made a quick visit to Dallas and to my parent's home in Hugo, Ok. So we took that opportunity and turned it into a portrait session. They are looking good and feeling good as we all have to wait about 6 more weeks until we can really meet little Austin. Fun times.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amber and Jonathan

We are looking forward to Amber and Jonathan's wedding early next year. They will be married at Austin's newest wedding venue called The Oaks Events Center in Austin. But what is really cool... this couple won the use of this facility at their first open house. That really helps with the wedding budget! They are a very easy couple and naturals when it came to picture taking! It was a beautiful fall day at Mayfield Park for this engagement session - enjoy a sample.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rachel and Patrick –Lockhart, TX

We met Rachel and Patrick on a gorgeous fall day in Lockhart and roamed around Wilson family farm and Lockhart State Park for this special engagement session. We feel like we have known Rachel all of her life, but in reality it has only been for about the past 7 years when she was a wonderful roommate with one of your daughters. We had a blast taking this session, talking about the wedding plans and getting to know Patrick better. Patrick selected a beautiful sapphire and diamond engagement ring. Sapphires are known to symbolized romantic love, truth, and commitment. They will marry next March at Old Glory Ranch in Wimberley. It is going to be a wonderful celebration. Local band Suede will entertain the crowd. By the way, Rachel and Patrick will share our wedding anniversary date!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kayla and Philip - Villa St. Claire

Kayla and Philip got married at St. Elizabeth's in Pflugerville. They had a truly unique ceremony that combined both of their faiths. You could tell each pastoral message came from the heart and from knowing each of them for years. St. Elizabeth's is beautiful and provided a great backdrop for a lovely ceremony. A easy breezy family and group photo session and then off to Villa St. Claire for a full filled reception. Kim and Rebekah do a fabulous job coordinating events and this evening flowed very smoothly. A very tasty dinner and a special kids meal. I had to laugh that some of the adults waited until the kids went through first, so they could get the leftover mac and cheese with chicken fingers! Four cakes, lively dancing, a incredibly active photo booth and an exit to sparklers and bubbles. This wedding had it all. Good job and happy beginnings Kayla and Philip! The couple selected Jamaica for their honeymoon, jealous.....
