InStyle Weddings is Going Under
Sadly, Time Inc. has decided to close the InStyle Weddings magazine and the last issue will hit newsstands on December 25th. Another sad casualty of the imploding news industry. Sad.

Tip : Family Wedding Stories
Celebrate StoryCorps National Day of Listening on November 27 by recording your parents or grandparents wedding story. Ask questions about the day, the engagement, the dress or anything else they want to talk about. You’ll be creating a treasure to share with your children (or siblings) when they get married. You may even discover a special family tradition you want to incorporate into your wedding.
Bridal Portrait : Four Seasons
Loved this session! Katie is amazingly beautiful and so sweet! We had perfect weather for this session. I’m really looking forward to this wedding!

Wild Rose Hall : Wedding
This is my last wedding of the year! Tricia and Miles were the perfect way to end a great year. The Inn and Wild Rose Hall provided an excellent backdrop for this wedding. The weather was perfect and Tricia looked stunning in her strapless dress and cowboy boots! The ceremony was held as the sun set – which was beautiful. A string quartet was lead by the brides young cousin. They did a wonderful job! The reception featured a mix of country music and swing classics. Guests danced late into the night! I photographed this wedding solo. I usually only photograph weddings solo if there are going to be fewer than 40 guests. I was exhausted by the end of the night, but every once in a while it is nice to work alone.
Wedding : Wildflower Center
Venue : Wildflower Center
Flowers : Mariposa Floral
Food : Austin’s Catering
Couple : Hill and Beth
The Wildflower Center provided a wonderful backdrop for this very classy wedding. The colors were fall inspired with lots of oranges and yellows. The service was officiated by the mother of the groom which was wonderful! During the ceremony there was a very cool reading done by everyone present AND the words to the reading were printed on wildflower seed paper. Meaning – you can plant the paper in the ground and wildflowers will sprout. So cool.
Wedding : Private Estate
Venue : Private Estate Wedding – Austin Texas
Catering + Flowers : Central Market
Jamie and Demarion got married at the home a family friends who live on Lake Travis. I love small weddings and this one was no exception! Jamie looked amazing in her JCrew dress and I loved all of the peacock inspired details. A close friend did the officiating and then we headed outside for some photos. Guests enjoyed dinner on the patio overlooking the lake and then everyone headed back inside for cake cutting and some dancing!
Engaged : Heidi and Jeff
I photographed Heidi and Jeff’s engagement portraits at UT last week. They brought along there very cute pup (and a pup wrangler). I got to meet Jeff last year at his sister Michelle’s wedding. I love getting to photograph more than one wedding in a family! See y’all at Kindred Oaks in May!!!
