Tammy+Clay | Engaged! | Texas Engagement Photographer

Tammy was one of my cousin, Heaven's, bridesmaids back in 2013 at her wedding in Arizona! She and her fiance, Clay, met through a mutual friend in New York (where Tammy lived) and immediately hit it off! When Tammy contacted me earlier this year about shooting their wedding in Colorado, I was like "yes yes yes"! One of my dreams as a Wedding Photographer is to do more weddings out of state/country, to expand my portfolio (and maybe even my passport!) so knowing how adorable of a couple Tammy & Clay are, plus the idea of a backyard wedding in the beautiful Colorado--I was sold instantly! Then, to make it even more exciting, Clay happened to be from Houston. So that meant Tammy needed to move down to Houston prior to the wedding to get settled, which worked out perfectly for us to plan an engagement session and even grab dinner! I had so much fun at this shoot. Tammy & Clay are naturals in front of the camera (yes, you too Clay!) which made my part that much easier! I loved their chemistry all throughout the session, and the admiring looks they would give each other without me even directing them to do so! We introduced Tammy to the reality of muggy, hot, humid Texas photography sessions, and then sealed the deal with some "frog dip" (which is really just queso+guac+ground beef, but while in Texas, am I right?!)

So, meet Tammy+Clay. Tammy is an actress from Colorado and Clay is a Texan Firefighter. 
They're pretty fantastic.









































Tammy & Clay; thank you so much for driving out to Seguin for our session! I had so much fun getting to know y'all better, and I canNOT wait for your wedding in June! It's going to be so beautiful!

Sarah Kate+Preston Williams | Laguna Gloria, Austin Wedding Photography

Oh my goodness, this wedding was a dream. 
When I first met Sarah Kate and Preston at our pre-wedding consult, I knew their wedding would be fun. They're the type of couple that loves to adventure together. Traveling to other countries, rock climbing, exploring the outdoors--that's their thing. Which convinced me from the start that I was going to love their wedding. Their laid back personalities and pure love for each other was the perfect combo for a simply elegant evening.
From the most precious first-look, to intricately assembled floral arrangements, perfect typography on all the stationary and signage, and the classiest, most fun wedding party ever--the Williams wedding was definitely one for the books.












































































































































































































Sarah Kate & Preston,
thank you so much for choosing us to capture the prettiest parts of your day! We had so much fun getting to know you, and witnessing your love become official.
