Hello

Historic Gruene, TX Engagement: Rachel + Dallas

Sessions

They met in 8th grade drama class, however they didn’t have their first full conversation till sophomore year of high school. “If you told me then that I would one day marry Dallas, I would have probably been confused”.  After having several classes with each other, Rachel and Dallas started dating. Sparks flew! If you are familiar with the town […]

Sessions

I love when I get to work with people who make you feel like you have known them your whole life. Growing up in the same hometown with only one house between us, I have literally known Jordyn almost my whole life! It was no surprise that had such a fun time hanging out with her while taking her senior photos and catching […]

“It was a scary time”. An amputee due to osteosarcoma, Emily has remained a conqueror of cancer since childhood. Last year, after battling cancer all these years, she was having symptoms again and had to have scans.

These portraits are very special to me. This is my brother Connor!  He is a surfer, a swimmer, the captain of his waterpolo team, and a great student.

Ben and I have known each-other since the good ole middle school honor choir days. During our time at Texas State, our friendship was able to go blossom a bit more and I got to know how awesome Ben really is! This shoot is special. All of the locations mean something to Ben. From his love of SM […]

Sessions

Sarah and I first met at an Instameet in Houston, TX. While I was there, I snapped a photo of her thinking she resembled the beautiful Lana Del Rey! Now almost 6 months later, she asked me to do her senior photos.  I was thrilled! With a tornado warning the day before and unpredictable Houston weather, […]

And the best name ever goes to……..Marnie!  Marnie and I had the best weather during our morning shoot in Austin, Texas. Cool and breezy, perfect smiling weather!

I love a good morning shoot! Add in a fun muse and some gorgeous weather and I’m set! Tyler and I have known each other through some of our past courses at Texas State. Whenever a professor said something cringe worthy or a class discussion took an awkward turn for the worse, I knew I could turn […]
