Beautiful bride, beautiful dress, beautiful location.. I really get far too much credit for taking pretty photos – with a bride like Jessica in a place like this, taking stunning bridal portraits is child’s play. I’m especially in love with Jessica’s two piece Winnie Couture wedding gown, as well as those FABULOUS blue suede shoes! Shooting at Villa Antonia in Austin is always a pleasure – everywhere you turn is a new and even more lovely spot, and the incredible views of Lake Travis are the perfect backdrop for a wedding or portrait session. Here are some of my faves from her session:
Even the largest snowfall in Texas’ history isn’t enough to keep me away from a beautiful bride. Thank goodness for heaters!

- Wow, Stacy! She is insanely gorgeous. I'm sure you helped her gain confidence and feel comfortable in front of the camera. These photos are stunning! I *love* your bridal shots- each one of them!
- Beautiful stuff Stacy. I love your work.

- these are great! The bride is absolutely gorgeous!
- Wonderful examples of how to pose a bride without the bouquet! Very well done!
- jeeeez you're good at these.
I looooooove shooting redheads! There’s something about that particular color of hair that just gives a girl confidence and personality and pizzazz. Even the faux-redheads have a spark in their eyes and a bounce in their step. I knew the second I laid eyes on Marandah and her gorgeous locks (and those lovely blue eyes) that I would have way too much fun photographing her, and naturally, she proved me right. We shot her session at the historic Heard-Craig House in downtown McKinney. Here are a few of my favorites:

- Lovely, Stacy! Gorgeous bride, and what fabulous shoes!
- Wow! Totally gorgeous - I'm particularly in love with the black and whites here, and the bride is SO pretty!
- Stacy! Love them! You are so sweet! They wouldn't look as great without such a fabulous photographer behind the camera! :)
- The first image, and the second last FTW! The first is so dreamy, and the second last is so relaxed and fun.
- These are wonderful. Especially the first image, very striking, you continue to impress me with your careful attention to detail and style in both your images and post-processing, excellent!
- Wow she is such a beautiful bride!! And I'm LOVING the shoes!!

Allison’s wedding was hands down one of the the most beautiful affairs I’ve ever seen.. The first time I met Allison I knew our design styles were a perfect match (she, her bridesmaid, and I all showed up to the consultation in matching ivory and khaki dresses), and she had an amazing team working on her wedding decor, so I was anxiously awaiting her wedding and it definitely did not disappoint! I’m still working on the wedding photos, but in the meantime, here are some of my favorites from her session at the Dallas Arboretum!

- Thank you Stacy for the beautiful photos of my daughter! I'm certain the wedding photos will be amazing too! You're the best! She loved Dorothy's red shoes from The Wizard of OZ....hence the red shoes for her wedding day!

- The color pallet you use for post production rocks. I don't even know if I could describe it... it's desaturated but vibrant?!?!?
- That shot where you can only see one of her eyes....YES!!!!!!
Courtney Paul just became Courtney Cleveland, so I’m pumped to show off these beautiful bridals of hers!!

- Love looking at your work, Stacy. So beautiful!
- I was looking through your website after looking at a session you did for a co-worker, Garrett, from Jamie and Garrett's engagement photos. Love you work! I was reading the FAQ section and realized our line of thinking is very similar! I often look through magazines and online for ideas, especially before a shoot. I shoot with a Canon 7D. But I have not experimented yet with an off camera flash. The trouble I have is that I have great ideas before a session and I'm thinking of all the poses I want to do and arrangements, possible backgrounds, ect. But then when I actually get to the session my mind goes blank!! It's the scariest feeling! I'm like "where did all of those great ideas go, I need them to come back!!". I have managed to get through them and come up with a few good poses, but recently I've left the session feeling very uneasy and just hoping I got enough to not ruin a reputation I'm just trying to build. I hope that feeling gets better and goes away with experience to where I feel very confident everytime. anyway- just wanted to say a few words and that I love your work!
Mark Gregory - Great photos. I especially love the first few pictures where her dress takes on kind of an art nouveau style.
Poser - Dude.
Lindsey Joy - love.love.love :)

Alexandra - You are so talented it's ridiculous!! I love these portraits and all of your post processing! Especially that black and white! Is it one you created yourself or is it an action available online for purchase?
