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.

Alyssa has her own successful fashion blog, and Adam works for, Meltwater, a successful media management company. These two are just perfect together. They traveled down to Austin for the weekend to catch the UT game and visit friends. Alyssa had no idea he had planned on proposing to her! He planned the perfect spot, overlooking the beautiful Austin skyline. You can see the surprise and excitement in her face. It was such an honor to be there and witness this special moment between them! Congratulations to the happy couple :)

Austin Portraits: Russell

Photos from my portrait session with, Russell. Russell is a writer, his pen name is: A.R. Ashworth. He's novels are dark, suspenseful, thrillers that deal with themes of crime and mystery. He's newest book, Souls of Men, will be available on April 2017. Going along with his writing style, I thought it would be perfect to capture dramatic looking headshots. I used a combination of industrial backgrounds and an off-camera flash, to capture this look.
