It’s no secret that this was one of my favorite engagement sessions of 2017!

We had talked once or twice on the phone but I hadn’t met handsome Jeff or the sublime Dr. Shay until the day of their shoot.

The moment they stepped out of the car, I was pumped! Look at these outfits!!!

Bright, primary colors that work amazingly well together!

The clothes are fitted and no one is “wasting a waist”!

Shay’s lips, nails and shoes are all the same bitchin’ shade of red!

I was floored by their style!  Jeff even wore my favorite color, bright mustard yellow!

I know bright colors are not everyone’s cup of tea but I do think that they photograph better in many of the environments I like for photography.

These two both moved here from Florida (Shay’s original from Michigan) rather recently and I loved seeing my stomping ground of South Congress through fresh eyes.

Jeff and Shay are getting married on Maui in 2019 and it’s definitely going to be a killer experience!

Don’t let Jeff’s serious face on the bottom left fool ya, he’s a softie!

After blowing my mind with their more casual outfit, they then put on this elegant attire!

I know right, it looks like the cover of Forbes Magazine’s “Top Power Couples to Watch 2018”.

(I don’t think that article actually exists but it totally should!)

I made a little mock-up of framed photos from their engagement session, I love how well they work together!

One of my favorite autumn engagement sessions from last year!

Olivia and Kyle are two cool kids from Kentucky and even though they are getting married back home, they wanted their engagement session here in the ATX.

I was in the middle of a Justified binge-a-thon when Olivia reached out so I was pretty excited to photograph someone from the ‘tucky!

Anyone else madly in love with Raylan Givens?

By the end I was more Team Boyd but still….that hat…..

Olivia is a teacher here (no idea how she manages to look so rested!) and Kyle has a super cool job as a sports journalist specializing in wrestling intel.

Their wedding is slated for this June in Kentucky and is sure to be a blast!

Many, many congrats to these two lovers!

Doesn’t Olivia have the most unfairly good skin? So jealous!

Silhouettes are still my jam!

I’ve been slinging a few more framed pieces lately and I loved this mock up I did of their session!
