YOUR STORIES

A COLORFUL SPRING WEDDING IN ROUND TOP, TX

filed in:

I remember back in 2021 when Kait initially inquired with me for fashion photos for her boutique. She wasn’t even engaged yet, but told me she knew I’d be her wedding photographer when the time came. On April 23, 2023, Tyler popped the question at their little ranch in Round Top, and nearly a year later to the date, they wed.

I started off the day with the girls at the cutest little pastel air bnb. I got to hang out with my own wedding day content creator, Amore Films, and we played around with Kait’s details, bringing in elements from the space. It was a quick 20 minute drive over to their property in Round Top, where the ceremony overlooked the pond, and a tented reception took place.

I don’t think the smiles left Kait’s face one time this entire day- not even when she was crying the happiest of tears. Looking back through this gallery, I can’t help but see the influence of Taylor Swift’s debut album, along with Kacey Musgraves in the colors and overall energy.

What a gorgeous celebration to be apart of.

I spend a lot of my time reminiscing on the best memories, ready to create more. My hope is that my work creates that sense of nostalgia for you. The kind of feeling you wanna relive over and over again- front of the fridge, living room wall worthy.

I love madly in details. 

I love the smell of vanilla candles and the air when it’s crisp just before a fall rainstorm. I love the way that the sky turns all sorts of orange and pink when the sun’s going down. I’ll spend an hour at the store just to make sure I find you the perfect birthday card, and then I’ll probably end up buying two anyways. I’m fascinated by how the waves in the ocean are never ending and if you were to ask what inspires me, I’d say storytelling in all of its many different art forms.

Inspired by sunsets, nostalgia, the stories that make up antique stores, and most of all 

you.

HEY, I'M KAITLIN
