San Antonio Mormon Temple

Sneak Peek: Austin Texas LDS Wedding Photography

  As I mentioned the other day, we were back in my hometown in Austin TX shooting a wedding over the weekend.  Here is a sneak peek of some of the photos from the formals shoot that we did on Thursday at the Zilker Botanical Gardens before the wedding, and some photos from the wedding day itself on Friday at the LDS Temple in San Antonio.  They had their reception on Saturday at the Vineyards at Chappell Lodge, so I had some time to quickly go through and get a few of my favorites from the two shoots for this slideshow.  We ran it for the wedding, and one of the coolest things about it (aside from the awesome photos, of course)?  The song is actually the bride singing!!!

 

It's a song she wrote for her (now)husband a year ago about their relationship.  You can actually buy the song on itunes- her name is Katherine Gee and the song's title is Sunshine and Rain. She is fabulously talented!  In fact, her entire family is unbelievable as well... the whole wedding process was like a big broadway musical, with spontaneous poems, musical performances, and some really awesome dancing.

 

I'll definitely be posting more pictures from the wedding later on in future posts, but I just had to share a couple now so y'all can see what I was up to.  I had so much fun, and was so honored to be a part of it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Home sweet Home

Jenn and Jared were married in the LDS San Antonio Temple.  I LOVE the colors of the stained glass windows, and could we have found a more attractive couple to put in front of them??

My favorite thing about Jenn and Jared is how happy they look when they are together.  Their families look pretty happy too.

One of the reasons I was so excited to shoot at the San Antonio temple is because I grew up in Austin.  When I was little, the closest temple to us was Dallas, then Houston, and finally when I was about 17 the San Antonio temple was built.  I attended the open house and dedication, and it was a great experience to see that kind of growth in such a short period of time.

Austin will always feel like my hometown.  I love the culture and energy there. Maybe we'll end up there one day.
