Downtown fun! Rio Grande Valley family photographer

It’s been about a year since I last hung out with the R family and I couldn’t wait to see how much Miss S had grown. She is such a sweetie and reminds me so much of my little one…full of spunk! Mom always knows how to dress the family too!! Don’t they look sharp??!! I just adore the shades of purple. She even brought coordinating flowers to match their outfits which I just LOVED! :) You have such a gorgeous family! Thanks for letting me capture your love for each other again!

Western Romance | Rio Grande Valley engagement photographer

Ashley and Dustin thank you so much for trusting me to capture your engagement portraits. You two make THE MOST adorable couple and were so much FUN to photograph! I had such a hard time narrowing down your sneak peek images, so once again, this will be a lengthy post. ;) Ashley told me she wanted some of the images to have a “western romance” feel to them and I think we were able to capture that perfectly. Thank you for being so easy to work with! Enjoy your peek…

Stunning outdoor wedding

Crystal and Eli, thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your special day and for trusting me with photographing your precious memories. Everything about their day was perfect. Their ceremony and reception were held outside at Puesta del Sol Sobre el Arroyo. What a gorgeous place! What stood out to me most about this couple was the deep love they shared for another, how strong their faith is, how important family is to them and what wonderful and supportive families they both have. Here’s a little peek of their wedding day!

Beautiful bride
