This Austin spring wedding was so much fun! In the middle of the father and daughter dance, a brass band suddenly showed up and a New Orleans style second line parade happened. The guests were surprised for a moment, and then they quickly joined into the the parade.

Katie and Adam had a lovely vintage themed wedding at the Allan House, with wonderful little DIY touches. I was fortunate to be assisted by the talented Jenny DeMarco, and here are a few of our favorite images.

While in Las Vegas, I got to take a couple of photos of the lovely Sara and Dylan from Sara K Byrne Photography. They are such a delightful couple! By the end of the shoot we were all completely dusty from the desert floor, but it was so much fun.

three points ranch wedding – cyndi and shawn

admin — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 16:28:23 +0000

There’s something amazing about being present for two people declaring and committing their love for each other. As a photographer, I go to a lot of weddings where I barely know the bride and groom. Then I spend a day with them; a very intense and emotional day. After which I spend several weeks editing and looking at images of their faces, their family and friends. Everyday while editing these photos, I fell more and more in love with this couple and their wedding. The Texas sunset was beautiful, and Three Points Ranch is a perfect venue. It was clear that a lot of work and effort went into every detail of this wedding. And to top it all off, Cyndi and Shawn are really awesome and nice.

I wish them a life full of joy and beauty.

dallas arboretum engagement session | noelle and adam | dallas wedding photographer

When Noelle and Adam suggested the Dallas Arboretum for their engagement session, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But it was definitely not the glorious blooms of color that were exploding everywhere. It definitely was different from the rest of Texas that is dry and bare right now. I love the colors!

palm door wedding | amy and curtis | austin wedding photographer

Here is an Austin winter wedding at the Palm Door. The bride, Amy, found her dress during her college years, before she even knew who she was going to marry. It was a vintage dress that she just had to have. I love how it looked on her! The wedding was a lot of fun, and the dancing itself was spectacularly fun, not a surprise since Amy started the Austin chapter of Dance Dance Party Party! which by the way, is a women’s only dance party that happens every Sunday night, a safe place to just dance your heart out. The groom, Curtis, is one of the funniest people I know. He is an improvisor, actor, and all around awesome guy. Their wedding was good times!

Venue: Palm Door
Catering: Pink Avocado
Dress: Teenie’s Vintage (no longer exists)
Cake: The bride
Musicians: Stephen Robinson, Margaret, Libby and Anneke Wardlaw

trash the dress with paint

admin — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 14:10:51 +0000

I love color. When the Museum of Modern Art did their color exhibit I was so happy to wander around their halls. Bright, beautiful colors make me happy.

When I got a chance to do my first trash the dress session, using paint was an easy choice.

Before there is too much outcry about how pretty the dress is and how could you throw paint on it, please know that there was a really large stain on the front of the dress. It was unlikely that it would ever be re-used as a wedding dress. So we decided to play and make art with it.

Emily was very fearless. She was the one that suggested climbing up a tree. Thankfully, Andy was assisting me and helped her up a tree despite the layers and layers of tulle.

When it came time to play with the paint, we started out with her painting some white flowers pink, and slowly dripping it over the dress.

Creation, destruction, art. Here are the results.
