The Trejo wedding at Beneath the Oaks was something truly special. The closeness of their family was so sweet to witness. From the bride’s best friend bond with her mom and sisters, to the overwhelming love that surrounded them all day long. 🥹

One of the most meaningful touches was the vintage Mercedes her dad rebuilt, remodeled, and painted himself for their wedding send off. Complete with cans tied to the back for the perfect getaway moment, it was such a beautiful reflection of the love and care poured into this day.

It was one of those weddings that felt warm from beginning to end, filled with joy, happy tears, and the kind of love that reminds you what weddings are really about. These two are truly the sweetest couple. 🤍

My studio tour! 🥰❤️‍🔥

A little studio tour of Brick and Light 🤍 One of my favorite things about this space is how easily it transforms for each session. Whether you’re wanting a clean, minimal blank slate or something cozy and styled, we can have it set up and ready for you before you arrive. The studio includes several seating options for variety, a few backdrop options, plus a small client closet available exclusively for my CRP clients. If you’re a photographer, content creator, or creative needing a beautiful natural light space to rent, we’d love to host you. Message me to book ✨

Gorgeous spring colors & the coolest send off for the Quarles Wedding Day 💍💐💕

✨ SPRING + SUMMER MINI SESSIONS ARE HERE ✨
and this lineup might be my favorite one yet 🌿☀️

I’ve curated a few limited edition mini sessions for the season, each one designed to feel like its own little world, its own mood, its own story.
These are short, intentional session days with a lot of heart behind them… and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Here’s what’s coming:

🌼 THE GOLDEN BLOOM SESSIONS
A glowing field of yellow wildflowers at golden hour.�Soft light, barefoot moments, running through blooms, and the kind of summer nostalgia you can almost feel in the air.
Date: May 12 & May 19
https://book.usesession.com/s/3Bcb_0v99L

🧺 SPRING PICNIC MINIS
Think vintage blankets & baskets, soft florals, fruit, sunshine, and slow little moments that feel straight out of a storybook.
Date: May 31
https://book.usesession.com/s/ukKiuRCRUO

✨ THE BLANK SPACE MINIS
Clean, minimal, editorial-style sessions.
No distractions, just you, your people, and timeless imagery that feels modern and elevated.
Date: June 13
https://book.usesession.com/s/8afbc-7lRX

🌊 THE SALT AIR SESSIONS
Beach evenings in Port O'Connor.
Windy hair, sandy toes, kids in swimsuits running through the waves, and golden sunsets that don’t need anything staged.
And the best part?
Every session is built for real life, not perfection.
The messy hair, the laughter, the movement, the in between moments… that’s where the magic is.
Date: June 14

To make all these even more special, I’ll also have nostalgic add-ons available:
🎞️ Digital Super 8 highlight films
📸 Polaroid keepsakes

Spots are extremely limited for each date and once they’re filled, they’re closed.

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to update your photos… this is it.
