Lisa Rainwater & Andy Mele | Greenest Wedding

Eco-Chic Wedding Photography
Congratulations to Lisa Rainwater and Andy Mele of Poughkeepsie NY! These two are a great example of having a green wedding. It's helps that they're both avid environmentalists ;)

I love how Andy serendipitously found her beautiful recycled gold wedding band on a trip to visit his mother in Florida. For the full story go to:

Jacob's Well Wedding | La Dolce Vita

What a fantastic wedding! Jessica and Chris were married in a private ceremony on her parents lovely homestead in Wimberley, Texas. This was a beautiful and environmentally conscious wedding. Jessica is a woman after my own heart, her gown was borrowed, her shoes were reclaimed, their rings were from greenkarat.com and most, if not all of the delisious food served at their intimate backyard reception was organic or locally grown. Oh, and did I mention the flowers were organic too?

Stay tuned for their upcoming reception party at the Dallas Aquarium!

Austin Laguna Gloria Wedding | Jeff & Jill Dachis

Wedding Venue: Laguna Gloria, Austin, TX
Wedding Coordinator: Tiffany Craven

Jeff & Jill Dachis were married at Laguna Gloria on Saturday May 10th in all but biblical conditions. To accompany Jill down the aisle we first had a light drizzle which promptly turned into an outright pour. Rings were exchanged amidst thunder claps and violet streaks of thunder. After finally running from the huppa for refuge, the ceremony was concluded to the falling of golf ball sized hail under a once pristine white wedding canopy. Guests later reported that an unusual species of champagne drinking frogs had overturned a bottle of gran cru and were drunkenly singing Yiddish wedding songs to an astonished audience. (o.k. this last part didn't really happen but it's not far from the truth)

This was hands down the most memorable wedding I have ever captured. I love you both and thank you for letting us be a part of your legendary day. A very big thank you also to my die hard second shooters Chelsea Fullerton & Suzi Q of Q Weddings and to Tiffany Craven for your relentless professionalism in such extraordinary circumstances.
