A bright, warm and colorful Austin, Texas elopement at Camino Real Ranch — held on the property’s greenhouse, making it seem the opposite of winter.

Jeff + Dailey’s wedding day, featuring a midwest backyard ceremony, a family full of incredible dancers, a cinnamon roll cake + the warmest golden hour.

Do ever do something cool & then think “Wow, was I really there?” My exact feelings about this Max Patch Mountain Golden Hour session.

We seriously considered eloping for the majority of our dating years, so we thought “Why not? Let’s just do it!”  […]

More often than not, when chatting with established brides about their wedding days, they acknowledge how they would plan their days so much differently. They mention their mom/aunt/mother-in-law who imposed their opinions and preferences on the day, which created a distortion of their vision.

What am I going to do in Florida? When I found out we were moving, I was really unsure of how things would pan out for me career-wise. My undergraduate degree is in nutrition science and I did not feel the push to continue my education in that direction any longer.  All the sudden, opportunities […]
