Austin Wedding at Villa Antonia: Betsy & C.B. Hudson

Posted in Wedding Photography show hide 4 comments

Today was exciting! I had the opportunity second shoot for a great Austin Wedding Photographer, Ron Parks. Super friendly guy with a great team of photographers based in Austin, Texas. He needed some help shooting a “Celebrity” wedding out at Villa Antonia… Turned out to be the Guitarist of one of my FAVORITE bands, Blue October!!! I wasn’t able to attend the whole wedding because I was in San Antonio shooting another wedding… sometimes it sucks to be busy…But I made it out for the ending and the exit shot. Caroline on the other hand, was lucky enough to photograph the whole wedding along side Mr. Ron Parks and his crew… It must have been a blast! Check out her slide show of the wedding here. I LOVE MY JOB!!! Below is the only good shot I got as Mr. Hudson and his new bride as they exited the venue to head off to their honey moon on some tropical island…

I have seen Blue October many times in concert over the last few years. They are a local Austin Band after all. Below are a couple photos I took at one of their concerts back in 2007 out in New Braunfels. These were shot with my Canon G7 point and shoot camera… pretty good considering the tough lighting conditions… make sure to check back for more photos.

Kevin Ford - What a lovely wedding… looks like the reception was almost a concert. I bet that it was a great bad or a great band of close friends. Wonderful photographs.
