Some how missed blogging this session earlier… which sucks because it was pretty AWESOME! Sam & Beatriz wanted to take their engagement photos out in Bryan, Texas because they went to school there in College Station. After walking around downtown Bryan, we hit the country side. Enjoy!

Leticia and Josh are two amazing people! We connected through mutual friend’s, Grace and Steven, who’s wedding I shot back in April. They wanted a real authentic Austin scenery for their engagement photos so we started at Butler park, which has a great view of the Austin sky line, then headed down South Congress to experience what makes Austin unique.
Josh is in a Christian Rock group, they travel all around the world! He will actually be coming back just a few days before the wedding…
It was really HOT so we stopped by Amy’s Ice Cream to enjoy a cold treat… It really hit the spot! I had the Passion Fruit, highly recommended!
Ahh…The Famous Greeting’s from Austin Mural… I have seen plenty of pics in front of this mural but I never knew where it was until now. South 1st and Annie street by the way…

We had an amazing time shooting Mike and Leighs engagements on the San Marcos River. Caroline has known them for years and they were willing to do an crazy thing we asked them to do. They were such a fun couple to shoot. I also got some hilarious video clips of the two. Enjoy!

Too freakin’ awesome! What a fun couple. Love that backlit shot!
Excellent set of photos. Such great sports. This belongs on Rock ‘n’ Roll Bride for sure!
I have known Marlene & Jonathan for quite a while now, I used to work with Marlene and went to high school with Jonathan’s sister. On September 26th they are getting married and I get to shoot my first wedding in my home town of Bastrop.
Bastrop has many beautiful places to shoot portraits but it takes a little driving around to find them. This provided us with plenty of time to catch up. We started the shoot at a friend’s ranch in Cedar Creek that had an awesome old barn and rotting fences. Then we head down to the Berdoll Pecan Orchard that’s right off hwy 71 for some great sunset pictures. All in all it was a blast and I can’t wait for the wedding!

Great stuff dude!
Last Sunday I got to visit San Marcos to shoot engagement photos with Matt and Elle. It has been a while since I have been to San Marcos, I called it home for my last couple years of college. We had a great time around the city and down by the river (I gotta plan a tubing trip soon). It was a beautiful day and we got some great shots.
This is my favorite shot from the day. I told Elle to stand at the top of the stairs while Matt walked up to kiss her. I stood back and used my 5DMarkII in burst mode to capture multiple frames as he walked up the stairs. I then layered them in Photo Shop and added a fade to each image.
