Austin Portraits and Headshots: The Label Collective

Sneak peeks from my photo session with my friends, Erin and Kristin, twin sisters and co-founders of The Label Collective. These two are creative, ambitious and dedicated to their passions, but don't take themselves too seriously. They bring a wide variety of skills and talents to the table when it comes to branding, design strategy, marketing and user experience. I've had the pleasure of photographing these two, highlighting their similarities and differences. Our session was really fun, and I love how their unique personalities shine through in their photos. If you are looking for a fresh, new look for your professional headshots, email me at: msv1013@gmail.com. I offer a variety of packages and will tailor our session based on your needs! Enjoy :)

A Proposal Story: Fernando & Daniella

Fernando & Daniella started out as high-school sweet hearts and have been together for about 6 1/2 years now. Both of them are living and working in Houston. Fernando knew he had found his match and decided to pop the question to Daniella, at Mt. Bonnell over looking the Colorado River and beautiful Austin city skyline. At first, she had no idea. He was very casual about it. While they were admiring the view, he reached into his back pocket and got down on one knee. When she turned around, Daniella was so surprised! She had no idea and started crying tears of joy. And of course, she said YES!! Congratulations you two! Here are some of my favorites from our session.
