Best of 2010 - Austin Wedding Photographer

It amazes me every year that passes, quicker and quicker now.

Then I get to take a look back and see where we have been... and where we are going.

This year we got to work on a few editorial projects, namely People Magazine for a story about a young father who almost lost his son forever, and the New York Times for a story about a man who reenlisted in the Navy after the military's "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy was over turned. The world is changing and I am excited that I get to capture those moments.

We also got to work with Door Number 3 on a campaign for Highland Lakes, travel and tourism. Three grueling hot days in August is like summer camp for creatives. Way too much fun! They call this a job!?

This year we also had the privilege of photographing many wonderful couples on their most special day. For that we were both humbled and honored. Thank you.

As an artist it is difficult to turn a critical eye on yourself. I poured through images from the entire year to try to find just the right images for this post and I realized at the last minute that the key should be, which images speak to me. These images may not be the best representation of what She-N-He is capable of or even known for, but they happen to be my personal favorites from this year. I hope you like them. For giggles, let me know which you like the most. Leave a comment with your favs.

We also photographed a host of families and beautiful children this year, here are a few of our favorites.

Lastly, we had the unique opportunity to work with students in their senior year of high school. They're straddling the edge of adolescence and  we're there to witness those last few steps, it doesn't get any better than this.

Here are a few of my personal favorites from these 2011 freshmen.

Thank you so much for all of your support. I look forward to that special time in your life when you need us!

Choose your favorites. I'd love to hear what you think!

Aileen -N- Jeremy / Austin Wedding Photographer

They're from LA he is a movie producer and she's a novelist, they wanted have the ultimate "southern" wedding.

Aileen Did her own make-up and her sister did her hair. She looking stunning.

The beauitful flowers were provided by Erin at Rosehip Flora. She really brought home the southern wedding theme with her beautful arrangements.

The wedding was heald at the beautiful Star Hill Ranch.

Star Hill's atomosphere was perfect for A+J

Jeremy knew just the designer to create his one of kind New Orleans inspired sear suckers.

Ode to Jeremy and his love of comics, Aileen found these heart shaped comics on Etsy. The place with filled with little perfect details. Eye Candy.

Jeremy and his groomsman found and purchased their white chucks the morning of the wedding, nothing like waiting until the last possible second guys ;P

Dagar's Catering provided the delicious eats. Complete with a tree with bowls of different salsas hangin from it, beautiful!

Jeremy knew justthe designer to create their suits so he and his groomsman flew to New York, got fitted for their suits and their designer knocked them out in 2 days. I doubt he got any sleep those 2 days.

Dagars also provided gingham and burlap for the perfect decor!

lovelies.

a sweet and weepy Jeremy.

elated couple.

Aileen's hand made heart place-cards.

husband and wife.

mmmm Simon Lee Bakery.

Aileen and Jeremy were heading to Disney World for their honeymoon. It was Aileen's first time there, and she was beside herself with excitement to go. The firsworks were on a remote for them to start. and "It's a Small World" played while their fireworks fired and they departed. It was perfect.
