Jay and Samira – A Heart of Texas Ranch Wedding in Marble Falls

February 25, 2019 by Josh Baker

Growing up in a small town south central Texas, I wasn’t exposed to many other cultures. I attended my share of quinceañera, and Tejano culture was about it. Going to college and later living and working in Austin, I’ve had the pleasure of being around many more cultures and seeing them blend together in interesting ways. Jay and Samira’s Heart of Texas Ranch wedding was another great example of that.

This Hindu-Christian fusion wedding wasn’t our first fusion wedding, but we continue to really enjoy the melding of cultures. Each wedding approaches the fusion differently.

Jay and Samira’s wedding stuck to the compact wedding day form used in most US Christian services. You could be forgiven for mistaking a more traditional Hindu wedding as a multi-day festival (which is really what they are). Instead, Jay and Samira had a Sangheet on Friday and a simple service and reception on Saturday.

What is a Sangheet? The word means music, and a Sangheet in this context is a pre-party. There is often a Henna artist at the Sangheet working on the bride, and other female wedding guests.

A First Look

Almost every culture, including Christian and Hindu, have a tradition of keeping the bride and groom separate until the ceremony. It’s suppose to make the ceremony extra special (and also dates back to a time when it might literally have been the first time you saw your new spouse). Some people adhere to the tradition, but many others have started a new tradition: the first look. It gives the couple a chance to have that special moment privately with the exception of the photographers of course.

Wedding Ceremony Under the Oaks

Heart of Texas ranch is nestled in the hill country near Marble Falls. There are few things more ubiquitous in the Texas hill country than live oaks. Jay and Samira had their outdoor wedding ceremony under the canopy of majestic oaks.

Claire and Eric’s Santa Clarita California Golden Hour Wedding

September 3, 2018 by Andrew Fritz

Claire and Eric’s wedding is the end of an era for us. Claire is the last of the three Christiansen sisters to get married and we’ve been there for all three. It’s truly been an honor and a privilege. Each of the three weddings has been unique and matched the couple perfectly. Clair and Eric had a golden hour wedding at his parents home in Santa Clarita. It was a great way to end the Christiansen trilogy.

If you want to see Claire’s sister’s weddings, here are the links: Katie and Adi | Alicia and Colin.

It’s hard to argue with light like this… Eric’s family home is a beautiful space and it is filled with golden light in the afternoon.

Getting Ready

Brides shoes next to the under construction door.

You might wonder why a wedding dress is hanging in a uninstalled door. Claire and Eric’s wedding was being held at Eric’s family home and they built a new barn just for the event. Of course it happened that the barn wasn’t 100% finished yet. The walls were still open so the wedding had a rustic/real feel to it. You’ll see the unfinished walls in the reception photos.

Claire got ready at a nearby hotel and they were remodeling one of their floors. The construction team had built and set this door in the hall to block off the wing under construction. The congruence with the barn was too good to pass up. As a bonus, there was beautiful light streaming in from the windows by the elevators.

Alicia prepares to do her twin sisters makeup for the wedding.

Claire’s twin sister Alicia (who’s wedding we photographed last year) works in the wedding industry now and handled Claire’s makeup.

One thing about the Christiansen woman, they are almost always laughing, smiling or crying with joy.

To the Barn

The barn is new, built for the wedding and as happens with construction projects, it wasn’t finished totally on time. The unfinished interior didn’t dampen the festivities one bit. If anything it added a metric ton of character to the night.

It turns out that, when your husband to be gives you a sweet letter, people cry which can lead to makeup issues. A fan can fix that problem quick as Claire demonstrated.

You never know what conditions you are going to get during a wedding, but it’s hard to do anything other than take great pictures with light like this. The California sun and dust in the sky caused everything to glow golden. Weddings like this define “Golden Hour.”

Matt and Allisons DIY Hill Country Wedding at Pecan Springs Ranch

June 7, 2017 by Stacy Wells

Matt and Allison come to us via our shared time with Rogue Running. We have photographed them running in freezing cold hail, and on sunny hillsides sprinting through Austin. After watching their spark develop we were excited to be called upon to photograph the full flame of their DIY hill country wedding at the beautiful Pecan Springs Ranch.

A Hill Country Wedding at Pecan Springs Ranch

Our first time at Pecan Springs Ranch. The property is beautiful and there are many different vignettes and scenes the ranch offers. From lake side sunsets to the wildflower fields and historic barns and buildings in between, it was truly a pleasure to photograph.

Allison’s family really came together on the DIY wedding decorations to decorate the reception room. The groom’s cake had the guests doing strange dog barking noises (Georgia Bulldogs apparently). Allison’s side called out a more traditional Hook’em chant.

The highlight of the evening for us the photographers was the spectacular sunset that came out for a brief moment. We hard charged the newlyweds out into the field to get an epic wedding photo that I hope will hang in their home soon.

Thanks to the newlyweds for hosting us with grace and kindness. We are excited for your speedy adventures in love to come.

Jacob and Katie Sunset Wedding at Antebellum Oaks

May 11, 2017 by Stacy Wells

Jacob and Katie’s Antebellum Oaks wedding was special in a hilarious way. The lead photo says it all… It isn’t surprising given the fun we had during their engagement session. Jacob loves being silly and Katie has the patience of a kindhearted saint. That combination produces laughs and ear to ear grins in everyone around them.

Hallie and Jonathan – Green Family Camp Wedding

April 19, 2017 by Andrew Fritz

A Waco DIY Wedding

Blue Bonnet First Look - Waco DIY Wedding - Temple Camp Wedding - Hallie and Jonathan - Green Family Camp - Blue Bonnet Wedding

Hallie and Jonathan’s Waco DIY wedding could not have been more beautiful. Their friends and family traveled from across the country to the Greene Family Camp, which has been in Jonathan’s family for over 20 years. It was a day of celebration as well as a trip down memory lane; many of the guests had fun stories of visiting the camp as kids. Their 3-day celebration kicked off with a BBQ and campfire where we found some great moments to capture their carefree personalities.

Friday started with a wild flower engagement session near the lake, a BBQ and smores at a campfire. The rain didn’t stop the first look in the iconic Texas bluebonnets and a ceremony in the woods. The reception turned into an energetic celebration.

Wild Flower Engagement Photos

Jonathan and Hallie live out of town so we didn’t get a chance to do actual engagements. With everyone staying at camp before the wedding we were able to go out to the camp lake. It is wildflower season in Texas which is never a bad thing. As the evening continued, Jonathan and Hallie stepped out with us for some sunset photos before their BBQ and Smores party. We finished the night with a star trail engagement photos.

Daniel and Stephanie: Memory Lane Event Center Wedding in Dripping Springs

January 20, 2017 by Andrew Fritz

A Memory Lane Wedding in Dripping Springs, Texas

Epic Frist Look Portrait, Wedding, Memory Lane, Dripping Springs, Memory Lane Wedding

Stephanie and Daniel got married on a uncharacteristically warm (like high 80s) November day at the lovely Memory Lane Event Center in Dripping Springs, Texas. After a blue sky first look and ceremony the reception kicked off with a treat. They had a live band: Plush Party Band with some sing along (turns out Daniel can sing) and crowd surfing. Of course, if you don’t like the weather in Texas, just wait a few minutes. By their sparkler exit, the temp had dropped into the 40s which made for a cozy exit.

You may remember Daniel and Stephanie from their Kyle Texas Engagement.

Jonathan and Lindsay: A DIY Vintage Prospect House Wedding in Dripping Springs

June 15, 2016 by Andrew Fritz

Jonathan and Lindsay - Prospect House - Vintage DIY Wedding - Dripping Springs Wedding Photography

I’ve known Jonathan for a long while through the swing dance scene and later met Lindsay the same way. I’ve often found them efficiently making things “just work” as a part of Austin’s booming dance scene. They are a couple that make a great team and are also really cute together.

Given how their engagement session went, I wasn’t surprised when their wedding was heaps of fun too. Lindsay and Jonathan applied their dance scene skills to their wedding and made it work flawlessly. They DIY’ed all their decorations to turn Prospect House into a setting that perfectly reflected their playful sense of style. Lindsay made hundreds of gorgeous paper flowers, cute place settings for each guest,  and a lot of nice small touches to help the guests enjoy the wedding.

Congratulations Jonathan and Lindsay!  Thanks for having us as your photographers.

Julie & Garrett: Hotel Alsace Wedding

November 17, 2015 by Josh Baker

CareBearFormalFinal-1Social

Care Bear Attack! Because really, what is scarier than Share Bear coming after the wedding party to rain down hugs and warmth. Garrett is a bit of prankster and wanted to have dinosaur’s or king kong chasing the bridal party. We had to raise his joke one more level and go full Ghostbuster style in photoshopping in the Care Bears.

Julie, Garrett and their families went over the top DIY on the decor for the wedding, even going as far as making polished wood stands for the floral vases. Friends and family came and pitched in to help setup and break down the venue as fast as any wedding we have seen. Warmed our heart to see the social fabric wrapped so tight around Julie & Garrett.

Thanks to the Hotel Alsace for hosting us on a great fall Saturday.

Josh Baker, award winning Austin area wedding photographer.
Josh Baker

Josh loves a good adventure and some of his favorite wedding and engagement shoots have involved “getting crazy” or going somewhere special to the couple.

Josh is a Texas native and long time Pflugerville resident. He started his photography business in 2009 and has never looked back. His photo business even allowed him to be daddy-day-care before his two sons reached school age. Over the years his business has expanded to include just about every type of photography including automotive, editorial portraits, corporate events, sports and food. Through it all, he has continued to love wedding photography for genuine moment, the fast pace and the diversity of subjects it offers. Josh is a co-founder of North Austin Pfoutographic Society and a resident instructor at Precision Camera & Video in Austin, Tx.
