Brent and Jennifer got married last Saturday in St Hedwig, TX. There is just something so sweet about a small town Texas wedding : ) Brent was a little camera shy, but he definitely warmed up to us by the end of the night. We had so much fun getting to know Brent and Jennifer’s family and friends. They know how to throw a great party. Congratulations you two!! Be sure to check out the slideshow for more photo goodness.

Lovin’ the pink parasols!

I love everything about this picture. Favorite : )



Married!! Yay!!



We recently got a new lens for ring shots and I am in LOVE!!

Like I said…they knew how to party!

For the next installment of {our 2 cents}, let’s talk about color! If you have spent any time on our blog or website, I’m sure you have noticed that we are obsessed with color. We absolutely love when a couple adds color to their wedding. Some of the best places to do this is your shoes, the bridal bouquet, and the groom’s tie/boutonniere. Your wedding is a perfect excuse to buy some fabulous shoes! And don’t forget about the guys. A cool tie and some fun socks add personality and pop to your photos. Check out some examples for our recent weddings.

Like I said…fabulous shoes!!
The guys shoes are important too! I love the contrast of Clayton’s cowboy boot and Chelsea’s heels.
Lovin’ the purple tie.

We LOVED Warren’s checkered Vans. They were such a great way to add his everyday personal style to his wedding.

Don’t forget the bouquet wrap. Jackie used several beaded bracelets to make hers. It added such a fun texture to the bouquet.

Bridesmaids can sport the fabulous shoes too!! How cute are they with their matching red toes!!

These socks have to be one of our all time favorite ways to add color! So fun!!
Pamela and Monojeet had it all! Bouquets, shoes, socks and tie!! Yay!
You may remember Chris & Veronica from their engagement session in November. I have been soooo excited about posting their wedding ever since we shot it. Alas, here it is!! Chris & Veronica booked us a year in advance… which means we had to wait nearly 365 days for their wedding to get here! “Why were you so anxious?” you ask… For starters, the wedding was in Austin (which is FULL of amazing photo ops) and they planned a 3 hour gap of time between their ceremony and reception. Translation: We got threeeeee hours to run around Austin with Chris, Veronica and their wedding party to take fun photos. SCORE!! Planning your timeline with “photo time” is a sure way to get a ton of fun/creative photos. Here are our favorites from the day. Enjoy. :) To see more, check out the slideshow.

Suddenly, I have the song “Men in Black” in my head. :) “Here come the men in black… the galaxy defenders……” you get the idea. :)
Oh, the fun & unpredictable things that can happen when you’re taking photos in a back-alley of Austin. :) I love this.
Above: Jenn’s view (one of my favorite bridal party photos ever, by the way). Below: my view. I totally wasn’t joking about the “back alley” thing, as you can see. :) Is it just me, or is there something really fun about the contrast of the nitty-gritty alley with a dressed up bridal party?


Like I said, Austin is full of crazy fun photo ops!! How fun is this wall? (Don’t answer that, I already know) ;)

Below: my view :)



I think my favorite shot of the day. Veronica, your laugh makes me smile. :)

Ross and Laura of Look No Further Entertainment (www.NoFurther.net) were the DJs. They had everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) dancing all night long. We love good DJs!! They MAKE the entire party.


A little while back, I met up with Megan & Scott for their engagement session. We love when couples come up with fun ideas that fit their personality. Megan had the awesome idea to start the session with margaritas!! FUN! So we met up at Rosario’s in Southtown (thanks so much to the Rosario’s staff for allowing us to shoot there). Megan & Scott live in Southtown and frequent Rosario’s – way to make your session personal!! Here are my faves from the session. Enjoy. :)

The photo above and the photo below are really similar. And really different. And I couldn’t choose between them. Thoughts?



I don’t think there’s anything better than bright red heels. :)

I’ve been wanting to use sidewalk chalk in a session for quite a while now. I’m soooo excited about how these shots came out. They’re my favorites from the session. :)





My other fave from the session. LOVE!!
Margaritas, sidewalk chalk, and an umbrella… I heart props. :)
