LUNDEN + BROOKE

Time is too slow for those who wait,
too swift for those who fear,
too long for those who grieve,
too short for those who rejoice,
but for those who love,
time is eternity.

Henry Van Dyke

Lunden & Brooke, we can’t thank y’all enough for asking us to capture this incredibly sweet time in your lives!

We love you two and cannot wait for your wedding!

Gorgeous light and great expressions you captured : D

california road trip: act one

It’s only been a few short days, but we’re certain it’s love.  Yes, California, we think you’re the one.  We’re smitten.  Let’s stay here forever!

The beginning of our trip was marked by great meals, beautiful wines and the wonderful company of family.  Some of our favorite moments that we managed to capture on camera include a trip to the Pleasanton farmer’s market, and a day spent in Napa at the Culinary Institute of America followed by a tour and wine tasting of Beringer Vineyard, and a full day of soaking of the sights of San Francisco.  We also made time for lots of shopping, working, home movie watching and a birthday celebration!  It’s been a wondeful trip so far, and we can’t wait to share more…but for now, please enjoy a few of our favorite shots from our first few days in our new favorite state.

California Road Trip!

We’re going on a road trip! We’re going on a road trip! Tomorrow morning we’re flying to San Francisco, CA, and will drive all the way back down to Texas- with lots & lots of fun stops along the way.  We also decided to set a little goal for ourselves: take pictures!   I know that seems obvious, but we are terrible about taking pictures outside of work. We’ve been the Vegas, New York (twice!), New Orleans, and so many other fun cities, but have very few pictures of our travels! So, our goal is to take at least 10 pictures a day and blog about our California adventures.  That said, any suggestions of things to see/do/etc. are very much appreciated!  Cant’t wait to share our crazy trip with you all!

1. California Map Art   2. Beach Photograph     3. Rifle Citrus Fruit Print     4. Vintage Airstream Art

5. Super Ciccio Sunglasses     6. Biltmore Overdye Fedora     7. Bloom Theory Straps

San Francisco is awesome! Y’all should definitely hit up Muir Woods and the Marin Headlands while you’re there. Pretty amazing. Makes me want to go back!

Peyton + Mike: Waco, TX

We had such a blast hanging out with Peyton, Mike, and their adorable dog, Judge, in Waco a few weeks ago for their engagement session.  We drove out to Peyton & Mike’s favorite place, the dam, and spent the afternoon walking through the gorgeous woods and fields.  For all you Waco haters out there, check out how beautiful it is! These two are so great together, and it we felt so blessed to get to play a role in this exciting season of their lives.  Please enjoy a few of our favorites! Congrats, Peyton & Mike!
