My name is Ben Godkin, owner and photographer of Godkin Photo. Thank you for stoping by! Here you can find out more about me and my life as a photographer. I live in the best city in the world! Austin Texas... (well the best city in Texas anyway). I began shooting weddings fulltime after I recieved my BFA in Photography from 
Here are the rest of Hien & Fred’s engagement photos taken last week in downtown Austin. It was raining but we had no chance to reschedule because they live in Dallas and their wedding is coming up in Nov. We just went with it and it turned out great. I really love the last few shots that are back lit. It really created a dramatic effect highlighting the rain and the atmosphere of the shoot. Hien and Fred were really fun to work with and, as you can see, they were up for any of my crazy idea’s.
