Susan and Joshua had a beautiful, simple, green wedding at the Inn at Wild Rose Hall outside of Austin.
If lightning struck your wedding venue 2 weeks before your big day, it could put a damper on things. Not for Joshua and Jennifer.
The Barr Mansion’s beautiful ballroom was hit and destroyed during a massive Texas thunderstorm. Fortunately the original historic building was left untouched.
And the wonderful people at Barr Mansion were quick to assemble the best reception tent you’ve ever seen, while the rebuilding of the ballroom begins.
The day turned out to be perfect for an early morning outdoor ceremony.
Thanks to Jen and Josh for their relaxed and graceful approach to the day, and the great ideas for some vintage and stiff posed photos (which worked perfectly in the location and with their vintage attire).
And thanks to Katie Luke for the 2nd set of eyes and some of these wonderful photos below:
Elise and Tom were married on the Pacific coast last week, at the idyllic Palos Verdes Country Club.

Katie and I had a great time documenting the lively wedding of Sarah and Nik at the Allan House in Austin.
It was fun to watch notes being passed back and forth between the bridesmaids and groomsmen getting dressed in adjoining rooms. The notes got progressively more obscene colorful and entertaining.
Shadi and Matt had a lovely Bahai wedding just after New Years.
Vintage Villas provided a wonderful setting that overlooks Lake Travis in Austin.
Thanks to Anu Saha for assisting and providing coverage and insightful images.
And thank you to all the friends and relatives who wasted no time in getting down on the dance floor.

A big thanks to Style Me Pretty for recently featuring this lovely wedding!
Libby and Matt had some wonderful DIY elements that piqued the interest of the SMP editors.
The preparation was at Omni Austin, ceremony at Central Presbyterian, and reception at The Wildflower Center in Austin.
There was a great moment in the Omni elevator after we ran into Quentin Tarantino, who was going to commandeer our elevator until he realized a bride was trying to get to her wedding. You’ll notice the bride and bridesmaids a little excited in the elevator after that run in.
One challenge with the ceremony was the limitation of the church for photographers, who aren’t allowed to go beyond even the first pew.
With this restriction, I decided to plant a remote-triggered camera behind the officiant, which I could control from the back of the church with an RF trigger. It provided some excellent coverage, including the example below with the best man handing off the rings.
Thank you Matt and Libby, I really enjoyed documenting your day.
