Britto-Helms Wedding Highlights - Austin, TX
Right off the bat, I knew I was going to love working with Christian and Ashley! Their quirky sense of humor and their outgoing and welcoming personalities are obvious from the get-go, and it takes a whole of two seconds before you’ll find yourself completely charmed by them. Their wedding was heavily inspired by their love of New Orleans, and they specifically requested a more jazz, Motown vibe for the music in their video. I absolutely loved getting to lean into the more fun, upbeat vibes and editing style that this allowed for, and I think it helped capture their personalities in a way that was so fitting for them. The day was fun, emotional, unique, and perfectly reflected Christian and Ashley in every way. Congrats to the Britto-Helms!

Sumell Wedding Preview - Austin, TX
Let’s talk about wedding drama, shall we? In all my years of doing weddings, I’m not sure I’ve seen anything as dramatic as what happened on Brooke and Mark’s day. After months of heat and no rain at all, a storm rolled in like no other and threatened to ruin Brooke’s dream of an intimate, Italian-inspired, outdoor garden wedding. The torrential downpour lasted only ten minutes, but it was enough to seemingly ruin all hopes of having that dream garden reception. Despite having every reason to be upset over the events of the day, Brooke was so calm and didn’t let the storm rain on her parade. Once the storm passed, Kristin Catter and her events team swooped in to rescue the day, drying off every table, glass, and chair to make sure that Brooke’s dream garden reception would still happen. Not only did it still happen, but it was one of the most stunning wedding receptions I’ve ever seen, with the most perfect pink sunset to top it off. If rain on the wedding day is good luck, then Brooke and Mark are the luckiest. Congrats to the Sumells!
Cicconetti Wedding Highlights - Fredericksburg, TX
I always say that I want to capture couples authentically, that I don’t want their video to feel overly produced or like it doesn’t fit the actual couple. And I think that too often wedding days become about “the wedding”, and not the commitment that’s being made to each other. This was absolutely not the case for Janet and Mario, who are the one of the most authentic, genuine couples I’ve ever had the pleasure of filming. While their day was full of plans pivoting, they remained joyful and focused on the reason they were there: not for some instagram worthy wedding, but to get married and promise their lives to each other at the end of the day.
These two are so much fun and full of personality (or “Cicconetti spirit”, as Mario would say), that I’m pretty sure the entire day I kept thinking about how I was possibly going to fit everything into one video! It was a day filled with wild humor, light heartedness, deeply tender moments, and some all out craziness on the dance floor. I’m not sure I’ve had a wedding packed with so many levels of emotion in one day, but it for sure created a special place in my heart for these two, and I think one of the best love stories I’ve ever captured! Congrats to the Cicconettis!

Storey Wedding Highlights - Lockhart, TX
Annabelle and Philip are one of the most fun and unique couples I’ve ever had the pleasure of filming! Even though they had only dated for a couple of years, their relationship had the lived in feeling that they had been together forever. They both are so confident and comfortable in who they are as individuals, and I loved the quote from the maid of honor toast where she explained it so beautifully, “We see you living your life as it was, but even fuller, and together you’re just creating this magnificent combination.”
Also can we talk about their AMAZING style and how cool all of their guests were dressed? It was definitely one of the most stylish weddings I’ve captured, and Annabelle’s reception fit was a straight up dream! The dance floor was on fire all night, and the entire reception was one for the books. Congrats to the Storeys!
