Remember that time Tiffany & Chris and I went all over Austin taking awesome photos?  I do.  It was super cool.  For some reason the images that I totally dig form this session are a bunch of the black and whites so I’m only posting those.  Get ready to get your greyscale on.

Ashley & Jay are my new favorite engaged people.  From the moment we first met I felt like I “got” them.  They are so so comfortable with each other and that comfort  just jumped right though into our  session.  It’s funny because Ashley kept saying she was super nervous, but I could never tell.  Jay does such a great job of making her feel secure that she just seems at home anytime he’s nearby.  These two love to read and Ashley grew up in a state park so we basically planned a session around books and trees.

Take a look at at these images and tell me you don’t wish these two people were in your life.

It’s faces like this, that keep Ashley smiling & laughing.

And finally, here are a few from the park.

So, I just finished a stretch of 9 shoots in 11 days.  Tons of shootings, tons of driving, tons of editing, tons of fun.

Not to mention some crazy stuff in The Mug Machine.

Enjoy a smorgasbord of photos below.

It would be IMPOSSIBLE for me to love Audrey & Cody more. They are the type of people I love to photograph. They love each other oogles and oogles and they care more about their marriage than their wedding. 2 minutes into our shoot Cody & Audrey busted out the awkward prom pose. + 10 random points for them. 15 minutes into our shoot Cody picked up an cicada bug and put it on his nose. +25 random awkward points for them. :) I stopped keeping score soon after that because I knew I would not be able to count high enough. Enjoy their images. Also, be sure and stick around till the end and see the awesome save the date video they made.
