Chesley & Andy | Bella Sera Ranch Wedding
Chesley & Andy | Bella Sera Ranch Wedding

Chesley & Andy are one of my most favorite couples I have ever photographed.  They are super kind and have such great hearts I loved being there with them on their 1st day of their marriage.

Bella Sera Ranch, a terrific place to get married.


If you remember their engagement session you know these two love food.  I was not surprised to find a nice little table of sweets.

Custom root beer bottles?  Of course.  (Get your own here.)

Pennies are a big deal to Chesley & Andy.  They have collected them, traded them and even have a fireplace decorated with them.  I knew I wanted to work them into their ring shot somehow.

A rainy First Look.
Loved the different dresses and shoes.

One of the guys forgot his shoes so he had to go buy some last minute.  We all pointed and made fun of him.

Loved this moment between Andy & Chesley’s niece.

Speaking of the little people.  How off the wall cute are these two.  (She kept showing me her grapes.)

Lots and lots of dancing thanks to CMB DJs.

The Mug Machine was also there in full force.  Check back Monday for those photos.

Ruth & Steve had a super chilled wedding at the Vista on Seward Hill in Austin, TX.  The whole day was about them, their friends, and having fun.  We started the day at the Aloft Hotel.  An uber cool spot to get ready.

Did I mention The Mug Machine was also there in full force?
