It's always a treat when I get to photograph a wedding rehearsal. Not only do I get to become familiar with the venue (in this case the gorgeous LadyBird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin), but I get to become acquainted with all the VIPs of the wedding. Yeah....I just said VIPs. But it's true! Knowing these faces and how they relate to each other is so helpful on a wedding day. Plus, it's great to get to document another special event for the couple.

Travis + Lindsay's rehersal was perfectly smooth and enjoyable, thanks to their officiant Spike and wedding coordinator Crystal of Style & Grace Events.

More to come of this great couple!

Shawn and I spent some time in Austin this last weekend to photograph Brian + Jenn's Engagement session at the Texas State Capitol. I'm excited to be photographing their wedding there in just a couple of weeks!

We began the shoot at a park where they like to take Jenn's dog, Lola (which is the best dog name ever). It was so beautiful out- and we had a great view of the city from there.

Brian works in Politics and even officed out of the Capitol for a while, so needless to say he knew who to call to get us access to this rooftop view of the Capitol. It was beautiful- the sun was setting and putting off this yummy golden light.
