Jess and Alan's wedding was one for the books. Jess and I met each other while attending photography school and are business partners with our company Snapbox Photo Booths. I was beyond excited when Jess asked me to shoot her wedding and thrilled when I learned it was going to be in Punta Cana. Lets just say I am now a fan of destination weddings during the winter at all inclusive resorts.
Jess did an amazing job on the details of everything. From the ring box to her bridesmaids gifts(made by her godmother!) to the welcome gift bags with the ferris biscuits for all 63 of her guests to the handmade bouquets. The wedding took place on Friday and on Sunday I shot Alan and Jess's portraits. This way we could take our time and they could enjoy their cocktail hour. When you have known the bride since the age of 6 and the groom since 5th grade, you say yes when they ask you to shoot their wedding. It's not like I would have said no anyways. Their wedding brought me back to my childhood and old hometown, Trophy Club, TX. The day started at Solana Marriott, a hotel visiting family would always stay at. I remember them having the best breakfast as a kid. After the girls were ready to go, we headed off to St. Francis in Grapevine, Texas where the ceremony was held.
Today I spent the day with my best friend Kirstin to shoot her bridals. We spent the day in downtown Grapevine scouting locations for her wedding day and snapping a few(or a hundred) shots of her in her dress as well. Can't wait for her wedding day!
Liz & David's wedding was simple but very sweet. There were less than 20 guests and the ceremony was held at Davids Dads house. Their rings were gorgeous! I love David's ring, i've never seen one like it before. Thanks Liz & David for letting me apart of your day!
Brenna and Ryan's wedding was such a beautiful day. The weather was perfect(it was flooding in Austin and my room was getting water damage but that is a story for another day). Brenna and Ryan were so down to earth, it felt like I have known them all my life. I loved that Ryan's grandfather officiated the ceremony. It was a day filled of celebrating love, family and the future. Thanks Brenna and Ryan for letting me be apart of your day!
Luke and Sharon's wedding will always be a favorite of mine considering they got married on my grandparents property. Luke is practically family, he's my brothers best friend, has gone on family vacations with us and his mom lives right down the road from my parents. This is the first wedding where I woke up and was already at work. The girls got ready at my parents house and the boys got ready at Luke's moms house. The ceremony was across the street at my grandparents house and the reception was next door at my aunt's house. It was a very unique wedding for me to shoot and one that I definitely won't forget.
Cayla is going to make the most beautiful bride when she gets married in a few weeks. She and I have known each other since high school and i'm glad to call her one of my best friends.
This was one of the easiest bridal shoots I have ever done. 1 - she is practically a model and 2 - she put up with my crazy ideas(hey can you jump up on that bar?). I'll be one of her bridesmaids so i'm glad I was able to take her bridals beforehand. Can't wait for her wedding in a few weeks! Today marks a new start for me, I officially shot my first wedding as the head photographer instead of second shooter. It was a beautiful day and I loved how the images turned out. Thanks to the Alamillo's for letting me apart of your special day.
Today I got to capture my cousins special day in Dripping Springs, TX at Heritage House. Amber met Scott while they were attending Hope College. While their day did start out with some rain(or maybe buckets of it), blue skies emerged just a few hours before the ceremony began. Check out some of my favorite moments from their day.
