Austin Wedding Photography: Matt & Cori @ The Terrace Club

Saturday I had the distinct honor to photograph the wedding of another Austin Wedding Photographer, Matt Montalvo. I wanted to make something truly unique, so I produced a time lapse video of the whole wedding, which took place at The Terrace Club in Austin, Texas. The video was created entirely out of still images, taken with my canon 40d and 5d MarkII. I can honsetly say that this was one of the most entertaining, fun, crazy wedding I have ever attended. That’s because, we photographers and wedding industry folk know how to party! Some of the rockstar guest/vendors included, Francis Cruzada, Sweet Caroline, Arol Horkavy, Matt Montalvo(the groom), Richard Lizama, and Joel from GreenBelt DJ (Highly Recommended)

Check out the wedding photos from Matt & Cori’s wedding at The Terrace Club here.

This video was made using still images taken with my Canon 40d and 5d MarkII. It spans about 6 hrs during the wedding day…

Equipment Used:
10-22mm lens on 40d
45mm TS on 5d
Satechi. TR-A Timer Remote Control Shutter Canon 430exII FlashTripod

Austin Wedding Photography: Vista on Seward Hill

Last week I had the chance to shoot another Austin wedding with Caroline at Vista on Seward Hill. This is one of my favorite outdoor wedding venues in the Austin area. I love the “stone courtyard, complete with European statues. It’s a very romantic and elegant location to exchange your wedding vows. Its three-tiered fountain and four columns of fire contribute to the Old World Tuscany Charm.” You may recognize the setting from a wedding I photographed a couple months ago. See Josh and Tatiana’s Wedding at Vista on Seward Hill Below are some of my favorite images from this wedding. Enjoy!

Bridal Portraits at Mayfield Park in Austin: Cassie

So… last week a got a voice mail from a bride in search of a wedding photographer to shoot her Bridal Portraits at Mayfield Park. Cassie did a great job and I am so happy that I was able to step in to help her out… turns out, I will be shooting her wedding on March 14th. YAY!

This was the first time I really got to use my new 45mm Tilt-shift lens! I love the effect of the selective focusing. It really helps to isolate the subject and bring out the best features in image. I can’t wait to use it on future sessions. You can see more samples of this lens on my last post,  Reunion at Fort Hood.
