Valeria and David | Engagements

My last session were engagements at San Jose Missions in San Antonio! We had a blast! Valeria and David are such an adorable couple, you can just see how much they glow around each other! It was an honor to shoot their engagements and I can wait for the wedding!:)

Hillary and Rex | Engagements

Hillary and Rex. They are so adorable!

We went to play at the McNay Art Museum and then went downtown San Antonio, I am pretty sure we walked around more than we took pictures though!!:P

Just a cautionary tale when driving in the downtown of any area… there are a lot of one way streets… make sure you don’t go down one the wrong way and jump the curb into a parking lot!

Jennie and Lance’s Wedding Day

Jennie and Lance were married in Austin at Vintage Villas on a beautiful but chilly day.  It was worth it though because it made for an awesome backdrop of color and clouds. We were all a little worried though as the winds grew stronger and rain clouds rolled in. Was it going to rain on their outside wedding?! As the groomsmen were lining up and the bridesmaids started walking down the isle I felt a few raindrops on me and saw a few landing on my camera… I got a little nervous then. And in the 4 or 5 minutes it took the bridesmaids and groomsmen to get into place, ready for Jennie, the rain just stopped. Once she stepped foot outside it didn’t rain another drop all evening.

The rest day was just perfect!

February 5, 2010 - 3:21 am

Alen Abdula - Wow! Look at the sky! I love this set Shy! Great work! And I absolutely love the ring shot, maybe because I’m addicted to coffee.. :)

Jennie and Lance’s Day After Session

Jennie, Lance and I did most of the session at the Landmark in New Braunfels, then went to about every bridge in town for their day after session.
