janise & chris- engagement

this is definitely my favorite shoot to date.

janise is an old friend from the church i grew up in and her fiance, chris, comes from portland (where they currently live).

their original photographer had to cancel on them so while they were visiting janise's family for the holidays, they came through austin so i could shoot them.

they were AMAZING to work with. it was like i wasn't even there, they were so natural and PRECIOUS. i'm basically obsessed with all their shots. :)

p.s. these aren't edited (minus one) but i just had to put them up immediately.





















































mad mad props to matt meyer who came along for the shoot while visiting from denver. he did the lighting with my brand new reflector kit and our lives were changed forever. the lighting looks SO amazing and we shot in the middle of a verrrry sunny day. thanks matthew. :)
