Melissa & Jon | The Springs Event Venue Wedding | Boerne, TX.

Hill Country Wedding in Boerne, TX. | San Antonio, TX. Wedding Photographer

What can I say? We waited for this day for 11 months! We met Melissa & Jon 11 months prior to their wedding day. I had a phone consultation with Melissa and we just hit off right away. When she and Jon came for their consultation and we met Jon, we loved Jon too! We knew right away that these two were meant to be. They are such an amazing and fun couple to around. I love their love story too! They were friends in high school and although their lives led them in different directions for a bit, fate (and Facebook) stepped back in and reunited them. They are best friends and we couldn’t be happier for them.

It was an absolutely gorgeous day for a wedding at The Springs Event Venue in Boerne, TX. We had blue skies for the ceremony and an just like their engagement session, an absolutely gorgeous sunset for the reception. Melissa’s younger son helping her with her shoes was such an emotional moment and her older son walking her down the aisle was priceless- I literally had to hold back tears. As we shot her ceremony, it was the same all around, people wiping away tears of joy and looking at her in awe as she walked down the aisle. Such a gorgeous bride.

A Father’s Day Tribute| San Antonio Family and Wedding Photographer

Happy Father’s Day to our San Antonio Families!

We want to thank all of the wonderful dad’s who have let us photograph them with their babies (and I mean from newborn to giving away their daughters on their wedding day). I know it’s not your idea of fun for a stranger to pose you and try to make you smile but thank you. Your children (and grandchildren) will thank you later, I promise. We know how important these moments are and in a life full of chaos of packing lunches, picking up from daycare, bath times, the one more bedtime story plead, flights across the country and endless roadtrips – We thank you for smiling and willingly participating and letting us capture these moments for you! Happy Father’s Day to all dad’s and grandfather’s. Our thoughts today are especially with the Reiter family who lost their father and grandfather recently due to brain cancer. We know he is with you in spirit today and we are thankful to have been able to call him a friend.

We have compiled a few of our photos with dads, and hope you love it as much as we do! Watch ’til the end for an adorable message- and don’t forget to share and sign up for our upcoming newsletter on our website!!

“What can you say to someone who has always been one of the most essential parts of your world, someone who took you by the hand when you were little, and helped to show the way? What do you say to someone who stood by to help you grow, providing love, strength and support, so you could become the person you are today? What can you say to let him know that he’s the best there is, and that you hope you’ve inherited some of his wisdom and his strength? Maybe you just say – I Love You Dad – and hope he understands” ~ unknown

Extended Family Sessions | Grandparents | San Antonio, TX

Extended family portraits w/Grandparents | San Antonio, TX.

“So long as we live, they too shall live, for they are now a part of us,
as we remember them”

I struggled with the right words to say today. When you lose a loved one, I fear I never have the right words to say. I lost my uncle (more like my brother) 2 years ago and there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of him and how much I miss him. I never talk about it because I fear if I do I might just breakdown. I do find comfort in the photos I see of him. When someone posts a memory on Facebook or when I come across my own old photos, I feel a sense of comfort. He smiled in every single picture – even when he was trying to act like a tough guy- I still see that little half smile he couldn’t hide. We lost a dear friend this past weekend. Sam and I met had the pleasure of meeting Al through his daughter Katie, who we have done family sessions for in the past. Last October we were happy to do an extended family session for Katie. Included in this session were Katie and her daughter, her parents and Katie’s brothers family as well.

San Antonio Pregnancy Photographer | Maternity Couture Gowns

NILMDTS Volunteers and Gorgeous Maternity Models

“I don’t know who you’ll be but I know you’ll be my everything” – unknown

There is nothing more beautiful than an expecting mother. Pregnancy is one of our favorite things to photograph. As most of you know, I volunteer for Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep (NILMDTS). Unfortunately this month has hit San Antonio a little harder than usual. With only a handful of volunteers in San Antonio, you can imagine how this can take a toll on us. It doesn’t help that I sprained my ankle pretty bad a few months ago and haven’t been able to take as many sessions as I would normally but I am thankful to be on such an amazing team of volunteers who will at times stop what they are doing- even if it means leaving a Mother’s Day gathering to help another mother in need. This is not something that we are required to do, it’s something that calls to us in our heart. Last year, I made a stop on the way to my sons birthday party to help a family who was in need of our services. It’s not a second thought- it’s a call we get and we go. I am especially thankful for all the supportive families out there- including mine, for understanding that sometimes our world has to pause for a bit to help another family. Because we had an unusual amount of calls this month and because doing what we love can sometimes take an emotional toll on us, I was so happy that two of our amazing volunteers decided to have a fun maternity model call with tons of amazing couture gowns last week and just get together and shoot some gorgeous expecting mamas just for fun as friends.
