Cute couple in front of Austin’s best features, the mural, the capitol, and spider house – perfect representation of some true Austinites.
The first shot is seriously KILLER!!
The locations are great, i like the tones of the photos.
Ben, kudos on an amazing eshoot. The photos are amazing but I think my personal fave is the 2nd to last. I love the B&W and how intimate it feels.
Loooveee the images at Spiderhouse! What a great session, Ben!
Awesome job…..awesome locations…… that show of them laying on the grass…..wide angle….GOLD!!!
Beautiful. Does that wall really exist?
I love the way your colors always pop, Ben. Great work man!
OMG these are so gorgeous, hard to pick a fave! Love the ones with the til death do us part wall though!!
I love the crossing the leg dip shot, nice!
Cracking set of images as ever Ben. There’s explosive chemistry between Ben & Marty. That has to be one of the most energetic dips I’ve seen too!
First, your banner image is awesome. These are some fantastic images. Love the fisheye shot of them lying in the grass together.
@Ryan Thanks! I’m not trying to encroach on your NYC domination…
Bens of a feather… great shoot, and congratulations on the blog placement!
Wow – absolutely gorgeous! 
the puffy character is from the rejected video on youtube!! lol
I love to shoot engagement photos in Downtown Austin! Danielle & Kyle are getting married in Austin on April 10th, 2010. They were really fun to work with. We started at Butler park, near the Long Center, and made our way closer to Downtown Austin. I could not have asked for better weather! It was a perfect day and many people were out and about enjoying Austin’s beautiful parks. This was my first shoot with my new lens (70-200mm 2.8 IS) and I think I fell in love! Great lens! I can’t wait for the wedding!

After the wedding I took the whole bridal party out to the Lake for some epic bridal party photos. Congratulations to Danielle & Kyle! The rest of the photos will be ready soon!

BEA-Utiful! I especially love the one by the lake. It looks so magical! Wonderful job!
This was the real deal people! Jeffery is a very romantic guy. He wanted to surprise his girlfriend by coming down to Austin to propose to her. They both live in Denver, CO but he called me up at the beginning of the week to ask me if I could document his romantic proposal in Downtown Austin. He flew in on Friday and we went downtown together to scout out the perfect location. We decided that the Capitol grounds in Austin would be the perfect setting for his surprise. After a nice dinner and a carriage ride through the streets of Austin, they ended up a the Capitol walkway. Meanwhile, I was hiding in the bushes capturing every moment! It was very exciting and challenging at the same time. IT WAS DARK! After all the excitement had settled, I came out of hiding to surprise her with a photo shoot! We had a blast and I am so happy for Jeffery and Gyovanna. Congrats!
Happy Holidays to everyone!!! Now is a time for family, friends and love. I hope you have plenty!

fabulous work, fav is the almost silhouette in fromt of the Capitol
Nicely done, Ben! I love the light in the trees and in the city portraits at the bottom with the capitol in the background. Your work is amazing.
This sounds so ridiculous on paper, but the photos are so amazing. Great idea, and great work. Should I assume that you were shooting with some insane long lens. I would have been scared to death of cops.
Paparazzi-wedding-photography:) love the idea. love the execution. great work, Ben.
That silhouette shot of him on one knee should be framed and hung above their firplace!
It’s not often that these moments get captured. Great job!
Beautiful work!
The second photo is totally my favorite, but in general these types of shoots are just fabulous. Tons of emotion, extra surprise…it’s really fun. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful! I love the dreaminess of these images. Bravo!!
very very cute! love it! her man did a great job on his surprise proposal!

Fantastic work with a beautiful couple. I love those photos with the skyline, and you really rocked that last shot. Love it!
First shot takes it.
What a variety of skills you’re showing off here, Ben! Love that leaf diptych!
They are so cute! Love all the images, but you did an awesome job with all the shadows in this set.
The ones where they are larger than life in front of the city are great! So much fun. My faves are the palm fronds. The green is just lovely.
Wow, Ben. Stunning set! So many faves! The purple wall and green palms are great, as is the silhouette. And of course, every shot featuring the couple’s gorgeousness. Fantastic mix!
These are all great! You make me jealous with your OCF abilities!
Such a lovely couple
Great job. I love every single one of the images, but especially no 1, 8 and 13.
Love your images here Ben! Very natural, fun and creative! Great captures
Love the skyscraper shots! Looks like a really fun session
Great session Ben, I’m sure their wedding will be fabulous!
