Austin TX Wedding Photography + Portraits » Wedding Photography for the Alternabride + Portraits that Pop!

Gen & CJ are so cool! And just the way they would look at each other and laugh throughout the session would pretty much tug on any gal’s hearstrings. Gen & I met last winter at the Weddings Unveiled show and I was instantly impressed by her bubbly nature and outgoing attitude. Gen said she was into bright colors, and fun photos that popped, so that was the focus of our adventure! And of course, throw in a whole lot of love and 3 locations for the recipe of a super fun session! CJ is also the drummer of a very well-known 80′s band in town called The Spazmatics, so we couldn’t get too girly and romantic here – it had to have a little rock n’ roll edge as well. And of course, we got several shots of CJ’s infamous Spazmatics pose (think Superman without the cape here!)…

I can’t wait until your wedding, guys!!!

Rae Ann & Sean entered for our first meeting and I could immediately tell that I *WANTED TO SHOOT THEIR WEDDING*! In addition to so clearly adoring each other, their truly hilarious sense of humor only endeared them to me more. When they showed up for our session with light sabers, cowboy hats, handcuffs, white go-go boots, and a Star Trek shirt, I knew we were going to have a blast.  I swear the 2 hour shoot went by in what seemed like 5 minutes! We started in the studio, then hopped down to Red River Street, and finally to the Long Center. And OH THE CRUSHING dissapointment! We wanted to shoot in the squirty fountains, but the water had been shut off.So brainstorming what other fountain options we had, we decided to hit a fountain in front of an office building downtown. We knew there was a possibility that we’d get kicked out, so they jumped in and we took photos at lightning speed. And right about the time we were taking the last shot, the sun set in-between two buildings in the background, and I fell in love with this shoot forever!
