I’ve known Rachel since the first couple days of freshman year of college at the University of Illinois. It was great to get to know her during those four years and see her passion for the unreached people of the World and for the Lord. These passions are what ended up leading her to Dan, and it was a blessing to get to be a part of their beautiful wedding! Thankfully, my fiancee was able to come with me and serve as a second photographer – the first time I had that luxury. I highly recommend it (a second shooter and a fiancee). A follow up post will be coming shortly with more pictures.
A quintessential downtown Chicago photo shoot for Jason and Jessica – the future Mr. & Mrs. Betke. Although I was kind of rushed for time that day, it ended up being a lot of fun! Thanks for letting me take your pictures, and I can’t wait to share the big day with you both!
How fun are these pictures?
Ryan and Julie are two fun people, so it only makes sense that we’d visit a lot of cool places and have a great time while shooting their engagement pictures. It was awesome to get to know Ryan and Julie better, and I got to see a lot of Austin that I hadn’t seen before. It would have been hard to recommend places to go for good “Austin-esque” pictures since I’m so new to town, but Julie knew all the spots. This was definitely an Austin-inspired photo shoot. She had a lot more good ideas too, but there was just no way we could fit them all into one afternoon. You can see more photos in my Facebook album here – Ryan & Julie. Congrats to both of you!
