jennifer + steve | vintage villas | the knot | austin texas

From a recent wedding at Vintage Villas in Austin, Texas, I just found that our recent winner of the Knot Real Weddings was also talked about on their blog. Petal Pushers did an awesome job with the flowers and decorations for the wedding, and Simon Lee baked a yummy cake.

They actually have two entries. They describe here some wedding reception ideas for center pieces with Christmas ornaments mixed in. This is a great idea for Christmas-themed or December weddings. You can also visit the blog entry of their entire wedding of Jen and Steve on the Knot here.

Latest The Knot Real Weddings – Texas Edition

I just received the latest copy of the The Knot’s Real Weddings – Texas Edition magazine, and I was excited to see that we had one of our previous weddings featured in the magazine, as well as some vendors are using images from some of our previous weddings. If you go to page 86, you will see a real Texas Wedding with Jen and Steve. This was a wedding that we captured back in December of 2008. We were honored that the Knot asked us to provide images from this awesome wedding at Vintage Villas! Stacey with Petal Pushers did an amazing job with the flowers, and Judy with Simon Lee baked a tasty cake!

You will see our images used in advertisements for Vista West Ranch, Vintage Villas and Bella Sera Wedding Planners.

Here is the story, along with some of the advertisement images.

Terrace Club | Open House Sep 2009 | Highlights

Wow! Another awesome open house! The place was packed full of people at the Open House for The Terrace Club. Again, I captured some work done by Matty Cakes and their peanut-butter and chocolate cake IS TO DIE FOR! Petal Pushers did a superb job with the flowers as always, and Amazing Ice Designs displayed a cool ice sculpture that kept the wine chilled. Here’s some of the highlights. At the very end, you’ll see an awesome portrait of the three gals who keep The Terrace Club looking it’s best – Hunter, Kristen and Ashley.

I got married at vintage villas!

So, the WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER gets PHOTOGRAPHED and MARRIED!

I got married on May 24, 2009. It was very intimate, emotional, and fun. All of our vendors were AWESOME and went above and beyond for us, such as our wedding coordinator, Lauren, of Vintage Villas, Tony Ku of Ku Photography and Amelia Tarbet of Amelia Tarbet Photography photographing our every step, Stacey Hogge of Petal Pushers producing the beautiful colors of flowers, and Simon and Judy Lee of Simon Lee baked us an awesome chocolate ganache with chocolate mousse filling yummy cake. Mike Rinehart did a fabulous job of making us laugh and cry by officiating over our ceremony, and Ryan Waguespack kept the background going with some classical guitar.

It’s really awesome to plan a wedding and to have the chance to work with many of my favorite vendors!

Here’s some of the fabulous images from our special day, captured by Amelia Tarbet of Amelia Tarbet Photography. I’ll post some from Tony Ku shortly.
