Congratulations Alex and Jennifer, you’re married! This weekend, we had the honor of photographing Alex and Jennifer’s wedding at the Mansion at Judges Hill in Austin, Texas and it was absolutely stunning! Every little detail was placed to perfectly compliment the southern appeal of the wedding venue.
Jennifer and Alex had to wait for two and a half weeks to see each other before the wedding weekend! Alex is in the Army, and has been in San Antonio while Jennifer has been in Arizona. They did not get to see each other until the day before the wedding which made the weekend even more special.
Mansion at Judges Hill almost has a french quarters appeal to it and Jennifer’s dress matched it perfectly. The intricate molding, hand crafted windows, and southern style furniture set the mood for a union that all the friends and family describe as “perfect”. The wedding was small and intimate to allow Jennifer and Alex to spend time with the family and friends that are closest to them. The Bride’s sister, Kathy, and the groom’s brother, Danny, were the complete wedding party so it gave us plenty of time to take pictures after the wedding.
You have no idea how hard it was keeping this blog entry below 100 pictures! We have so many great pictures from this wedding, but here are some of our favorites. The rest will be going into a beautiful leather album that will last a lifetime!
Brayden’s Portrait Session | Grapevine Portraits
This little guys has so much personality! He was so much fun to work with, and luckily, just like all other 2 year olds, when he doesn’t want to smile, his pictures are still gorgeous!! This little model has beautiful skin and eyes that sparkle when the sun hits them. We have known his mother for a long time, so we knew this little guys personality, and we really wanted that to shine through in his pictures.
Oh my goodness, to see Brayden’s robot! He is very serious about his moves, not cracking a smile while performing, but as soon as he is done….. CHEESE!!!!! During this session I learned a new trick from Jasmine ( Brayden’s mother) which I must say I do not know why we never thought of it before! We were trying to get Brayden to put his hand in his pocket, and he continued to give us that popular 2 year old answer of “no”. Plain and simple, “no”. Jasmine went to the car, got some money, put it in his pocket, and that was it!! He left his little hand in there just long enough to get a couple of perfect shots!!!
What a great time we had with them! Thanks Jasmine for calling us, we had so much fun with you two!
