I’ve had the pleasure of working with THE nicest couple ever. No really! I didn’t know them prior to working with them on their engagement, bridal & then wedding portraits but over the past several months of working with them, I feel that I can genuinely say that. I shot their engagement session last fall which is posted here and then Peggy’s fun bridal shoot in Gruene posted here and then a couple of weeks ago, God blessed them with the loveliest spring day and we all met out in Marion for their wedding day. My friend Chasity joined me as second shooter for the day which rocks because we always have so much fun working together and balance each other out very well. After getting to know Ryan & Peggy and learning more about their story, I’m so grateful God brought them together and was very honored to spend their special blessed day with them from beginning to end. Congrats my friends & enjoy your sneak peeks!

Peggy and I along with 2 of her best friends met out in Gruene one sunday morning thinking that because it was an early sunday morning we’d have the quaint little town to ourselves but alas NOOOOOOOOOO, ’twas not meant to be. We were greeted in town by hundreds of other folks who had gathered there that morning for the Texas Clay Festival. What’s a clay festival you ask? I wasn’t quite sure myself but after closer observation noticed booths set up where folks were selling their creations made out of, yep you guessed it, clay. REALLY? How awesome I suppose that folks can see beauty in all things however I was NOT pleased but we made the best of it and found plenty of places to tuck ourselves away from the clay fans and the shoot was a success! At first we weren’t going to post any sneak peeks for Peggy but I ran into her out shopping one day for Halloween costumes and she told me it was ok, that Ryan could resist the temptation to peek, so here you go my dear!!

Let me paint the picture for you……..lovely country farm that’s been in the family since the early 1900s, rolling green pastures, dozens of cattle, tin buildings, hay bales, windmills & cool old rusty farm equipment everywhere you look all lit up by lovely late-September evening daylight. It was such a lovely serene setting for Ryan & Peggy’s family & engagement photo shoot and I felt right at home there. See, I was raised on a farm too so having to watch out for and step over a few cow patties in my flip-flops didn’t phase me a bit! Lol. We were blessed with dry cool temps and although it was a bit breezy we made it work and I just had the best time. Enjoy your sneak peeks, Guys, and thank you for the privilidge of being your photographer!

Family Portrait. I fell in LOVE with that barn, just look at all of those yummy textures!

Definitely wanted to take advantage of the great big hay bales so we put the kiddos up there

Ring shot for the happy couple!

They totally worked it, LOVE that!

There’s just something about windmills that I love. I think I’ve found my new favorite place to shoot. Nevermind that someone actually lives on the property, think they’d mind if I brought some clients around every now & then??! Haha. It’s hard to believe that just a few weeks ago none of the lush green grass existed & everything was dry & desolate as we were in the midst of a major drought. Thanks for stopping by, have a great week!
