I have often seen articles in bridal magazines or on wedding planning websites telling brides what questions they should ask a potential wedding photographer. I totally get that they’re meant to help, but most of them leave out truly revealing components to what wedding photographers really strive to achieve. For example, here are a few questions that were in a recent article regarding Meeting with Your Wedding Photographer… Can we...
When Alyssa’s mom, Christine, reached out to me I was a little star struck! Christine is an amazing photographer herself and I was honored she even considered me for such an important day! I had a blast with this family and Alyssa is such so fabulous. Meeting her on that day her personality was so bright and she was either smiling or making someone else smile. Alyssa, you are beautiful...
I get asked a BUNCH about how I got started on my photography journey and thought I would finally sit down and make a blog post about it. Picture this: the year was 2013…just kidding! I mean it was 2013, but I’m not going to make this a novel. I had my starting camera equipment and was still using my friends and family to be models for me! My cousin,...
I met this Elena and Victor this year at an open house that happened to be on Super Bowl Sunday! I am so glad they still came out and we got to connect then 🙂 They are so sweet together and still have that “new” relationship glow even after being together for 6 years and engaged for 4 years now. It was so refreshing! Victor interviewed Elena for a job,...
One year ago Chelsea and Cody went and picked out her engagement ring. These two met at a party in college back in 2009 and have been making their life together since. How they actually got together at that party is told different depending on if you ask Chelsea or Cody. They had the “crazy” idea to have their wedding reception at a local brewery near their home, Cactus Land...
I haven’t photographed any of my family members for a couple of years now. Yes, I have done photography for my family that I was lucky enough to marry into, but as far as my side of the family goes I think my cousin’s Christmas mini session was the last time and that was for 2017 (if I remember correctly) So when my Uncle said the next time I was...
I was so happy to combine these anniversary portraits and maternity portraits for my very first San Antonio couple from 2017! I love that I am being able to watch their family grow in front of my camera and wish them all the happiness on the arrival of their baby girl this summer. 🙂 They are the sweetest and funniest couple and I know they will be amazing parents! Alexis,...
It was a beautiful day all over the south in Texas on a spring afternoon I met with Claudia and Troy for their engagement session. I was prepared to take photos on land near their home, but I wasn’t prepared for how truly gorgeous it turned out to be! I rode in their truck with the two of them from spot to spot and got to hear all about the...
It’s been a while since I’ve done a Tip Tuesday! The honest truth is this I had given into my hot mess self and just didn’t find time to blog unless it was about a session! However, I said I was turning over a new leaf and here I am! This post is meant to be a helpful tool for planning your outfits for your engagement shoot, but it will...
For those of you who don’t know, I have had the privilege of being Maddie’s Aunt for the past 8 1/2 years! I have watched her grow up since spring break 2009 when I met her for the first time! I still can’t believe she is graduating when I remember her playing with chalk in Seadrift 10 years ago. She will probably be mad about this, but I am going to end...
