Road Trip: Andrea's Bridals

Andrea and Ace tied the knot this past Saturday--yeah!!! Now I can share her bridal photos! We shot them the middle of March and managed to squeeze in between the rain. We were rejoicing that the rain cleared, but the wind kicked in and Andrea froze to death! She wore these fabulous yellow rain boots underneath just in case it was raining or muddy. I dressed in multiple layers with my thermals--you would have thought I was going winter camping! It took her a good day to thaw back out and rid herself of the goosebumps--but we all agree it was worth it!

When Andrea was trying to decide on a bridal shoot location, nothing jumped out. I had her look at the blog to get a feel for what she was wanting and what she liked. The bridal photos we shot at the missions in San Antonio last fall screamed her name. I suggested the missions down in Goliad. It worked out perfectly since Andrea had close friends nearby in Victoria. It was a gorgeous day, Andrea looked beautiful, and we enjoyed having the place to ourselves most of the shoot. I love the character, history, architecture, and workmanship of the missions and always enjoy a good road trip!

Andrea & Ace Engagement

We journeyed to Galveston to take engagement photos of Andrea and Ace. What better way to kick off the evening than starting at La King's Confectionery?! We were all just a bunch of big kids in the candy store! My eyes were glazing over at the site of all the goodies behind the counter and baskets of fresh salt water taffy . . .

After spending some time on The Strand, we went to the beach for more causal shots. Two words: Killer Sunset!!! I will admit I don't sit in my rocker on the porch every evening; but it's the best sunset I've seen since we moved to Houston! It was the perfect ending to the evening. : )
