Austin Downtown Engagement Session | Maria + Guillermo

Guillermo had to take his pup into the vet one day and he couldn’t help but take notice of Maria who was the veterinarian. Needless to say, he left with a healthy pup and a full heart. For their engagement session they wanted a fun and playful shoot highlighting the downtown Austin scene and buildings. We started at the Austin Central Library then walked around Seaholm district laughing and have a great time in spite of the cold weather.

Austin Engagement Session at Butler Park | Patrick + Gaby

Let’s talk lighting. It’s what I would call the “main ingredient” of photography. Without it you have no photo so it’s pretty dang important. When I’m scheduling sessions the two opportune times of the day are within an hour of sunrise or within the last hour or two of sunset. Their are also strategies around middle of the day harsh light photography but that’s not really my jam so I tend to avoid it. If it’s an overcast day, well you can pretty much shoot at any time and get great results. I love a good overcast day for a more moody vibe.

Patrick and Gaby absolutely killed it with their outfits and good energy. We started out at Red Bud Isle for some nature shots then headed to Butler park to catch that evening light on Austins forever changing skyline. I can’t wait for their bid day at Springdale Station next year!

Austin Engagement Session | Madeline + Edward

Madeline… “can we do the shoot at an airplane hangar?”

Me.. “Hell yes!”

This freaking adorable couple showed up for their engagement session in an old Ford F-150 with their sweet pup and I knew this shoot was going to be epic! They met at a restaurant in Vermont and he convinced her to move to Texas….the rest is history.
