I missed the last week with my postings due a crazy one of editing, but now I can get back to posting my thoughts about my work and why I think specific images work. Weddings are full of emotion. There’s excitement, tears, laughter. There’s highs, lows, and humor! All in one day. My work is…

These are my favorite wedding images of 2019, most of these are unposed images and free of photographers’ direction, full of emotion pictures that document a couple’s story. Every year (see more from 2018 and 2017), like any photographer, I’ll work on areas of weakness and eliminate mistakes while pushing creatively. It is, after all, about ‘seeing.‘ It’s…
A handsome couple, Densil and Stacy tied the knot a couple at Ingenhuett on High of weekends ago in Comfort, Texas. I loved working with these two who have known each other for over twenty years!

Neha and Mrugesh are Chicagoans who decided to have a destination South Asian Indian wedding in Austin, Texas.

We start their celebration…
Kaitlin and Chris tied the knot a couple of weeks ago at the historical and magnificent, Sacred Heart Chapel (OLLU) in San Antonio, Texas.

See you 2018. What a year 2018 turned out to be. My journey throughout the last 12 months has been hectic indeed with a full wedding season. In the north, the wedding season is split into two, spring and summer. Here in South Texas, weddings are year round. I see this as an advantage as…
Molly and Pio are newlyweds and tied the knot at Noah’s Event Center. I loved working with this down to earth couple. Molly is a beautiful bride. Pio should be on the cover of GQ magazine, or something like that! Just a warm, friendly duo. My favorite weddings to capture are lower guest counts as…
