Heather and Austin got married 2 years ago in a very intimate ceremony. It was the officiant, who happened to be Austin’s grandfather, Heather’s parents, Austin’s parents, and Heather and Austin’s fur-baby. I was honored to shoot that very small service, but they did not get into wedding attire due to the size. They went to Bora Bora on their honeymoon and had a vow renewal on the beach. Heather dressed...
Yoakum, TX Family – Alecia + Brian
I took a 45 minute drive to Yoakum to photograph this family in their own slice of Heaven. It was so gorgeous and the weather matched. Everything kinda fell together perfectly almost as if the universe knew it was photo day. 🙂 From the get go Alecia shared details about their families coming together as one big, blended family that made me feel like I had been along for the ride....
Victoria, TX Lifestyle – Harry Potter Themed Baby Shower
Walking in through the door was enough to be transported to Hogwarts. The detail put into the snacks, drinks, and decorations was filled with so much love you could feel it even if “you have the emotional range of a teaspoon” This little boy is going to be sooo loved! Congrats to the soon to be proud parents!...
Victoria Courthouse Elopement | Victoria, TX | Coty + Will
I met this adorable couple at my very first Bridal Showcase. Coty came up to the table with Will in tow (as any dutiful fiance would) and looked over the photos I had on display. She told me they hadn’t picked the date yet, but they were planning in the next two weeks to make it official and would keep me in mind. She asked me questions that none of the other...
Victoria, Tx Elopement – Katie + Jeff
So these two stunning individuals did elope, but in New York…and several years ago. They were kind enough to volunteer for a collaborative session I was putting together. Katie is wearing her exact outfit from that day! Her hair was done by Sammie from Beehive Salon and her makeup was done by Miranda of Makeup by Miranda E. Blakeman. They finished with some super sugar cookie from Sweet As Can Be...
Shiner Central Station Wedding | Shiner, TX | Katie + Brandon
This July wedding was as warm as any other typical summer day in South Texas. The sun was shining and there were small puffs of clouds in the gorgeous blue sky. Katie started getting ready with her loved ones in a room at The Old Kasper House Victorian Inn. Brandon and his brothers were in the same house, but one room away. There was a person on guard at all times so...
Goliad, TX Family – Ruiz
I had such a great time with this family and I felt like I was a family member myself with how friendly and open they were. We went out to family land in Goliad, TX where they have their own island and sipped some “Me-Maw” juice after the session was over. The three boys are so much fun and I will continue to love hearing the stories from their mom,...
Educational Gardens Wedding | Victoria, Tx | Trish + John
It was a bright summer day. That seemed to be a long time coming. Trish and John had been waiting for this day since what seemed like forever. The ceremony started at Holy Family Catholic Church. Nothing else mattered today other than them saying their vows. Trish was her usual happy, hilarious self. She thought she was being silly striking a pose like she was in the music video for Vogue,...
Put up or shut up!
I have NEVER had professional family portraits done.My husband would say, “Oh you can do them right?” WRONG! I always told him that it would be too hard and that we should have someone do them…BUT, after I lost some weight.Three babies later and I am still waiting to lose weight. I always tell my clients to document the everyday and not put off photos because of this or that....
Victoria, Tx Lifestyle – Farrah had a birthday!
This little girl turned 2 years old and celebrated at Chuck E Cheese with family and family friends. You could tell how loved she was by the way everyone was doting on her! It was so sweet. She had such a blast from the very beginning. You couldn’t get her to sit still or calm down at all. She was a social butterfly; flittering her and fluttering there. She is...
