Austin Portraits: Thomas

Here are some of my favorite photos with Thomas. Thomas is a young professional, specializing in design engineering and works for a successful internet company. He even does a few public appearances and speeches. I learned Thomas likes to sing and plays some instruments, like the drums. He would sing a few lines of a song during our session. He has a really great voice, by the way! When he's not working 9-5 or playing music, you can find him doing cross-fit or working out. All around, he's a cool guy! Check out some photos from our session. :)

Engagement Story: John & Alyssa

John and Alyssa got engaged on July 2nd. After dating for two years, they moved into a new house together and planned a house warming & 4th of July party to celebrate. During the celebration, John proposed to his sweet heart, Alyssa in front of their friends and family. And she said YES! I think they make the perfect couple. ;)

These two are getting married at the beautiful Red Ridge. When I met them, I knew McKinney Falls would be the perfect, secluded spot for our photo shoot. They are the type of people who live in the moment. They enjoy being outside & dancing. You can really see the love between them. I am so excited for their wedding, it's going to amazing! Here are some of my favorites, I hope you enjoy them!

A Wedding Story: Judy & Scott

Sneak peeks from Judy & Scott's 10-year wedding celebration in Austin, Texas! These two got married in the Philippines 10 years ago, to the date. In honor of their anniversary, they decide to have a wedding/vow renewal with their friends and family. Their three kids participated in the wedding, as well. They have two boys and an adorable 3-year-old daughter. So cute! Their wedding had a high-end, luxury, Italian style to it. It was very elegant.

Judy looked so stunning in her dress! She got ready at the beautiful, Hotel Granduca Austin. Then we drove down to St. Catherine of Siena Chapel, where they were married and some tears were shead. Following the ceremony, we headed to the Trattoria Lisina in Driftwood, for some delicious Italian food. The experience was amazing and everyone was so nice! We even got some really fun sunset photos at the end of it all. Their wedding was beautiful, and a true celebration of their love and dedication to one another. I'm so happy I had a chance to meet them and photograph all these memorable moments! Here are some of my favorites, enjoy.
