Roxana and Wellington wanted their engagement portraits done in the Sheung Wan district of Hong Kong, an area known for its hole-in-the-wall restaurants and tiny antique shops. Unlike the glitz and glam of Central or Tsim Sha Shui, there is grunge here. And since this is where they used to live, they wanted their photos to reflect the local flavor of their old neighborhood.
When my best friend got married, it was a tough decision for us both: Should I be *IN* the wedding or should photograph the wedding? Ultimately, I stood by her side as she married the love her life, Kyle.
However, for the day after their wedding, Meredith and Kyle get gussied up again as bride and groom to attend the annual Texas State Fair. In the midst of carnies and corn dogs and deep fried Dr. Pepper, we traipsed around the fairgrounds in the warm, waning light of dusk.
It was as if Meredith was a real-life fairy princess at Disneyland: Little girls would timidly approach and ask her breathlessly, “Are you getting married?” And she would say, “I already am.”

There is nobody quite like Melissa. She is graduating from UT with a double-major in Radio-Television-Film and Journalism, but what she really specializes in is animation.
For her graduation portraits, she wanted photos that would be funky, cool, and a little bit weird – which is to say, in the spirit of Austin. She chose a vintage Nicole Miller dress and brought along her thrifted leather suitcase. Rightly so, because this girl is going places.

When my friend Steve’s sister came in town from London, we set up a time for pictures of her two little girls on the beach. When the day arrived, it was pouring down rain, so I bought them colorful rainboots and a rainbow umbrella to match their cute swimsuits.

Jory is one of my oldest friends, and I couldn’t wait to photograph him with his sweet fiance, Jackie. She works with him at their family-owned natural soapmaking business. These two lovebirds are getting hitched in Hawaii next March!
