Here it is! Hallie and Matthew were married at Vista West Ranch just outside of Austin, TX on new year’s eve. It was such a beautiful day… the weather was wonderful… the people were wonderful… and well, everything was wonderful! Hallie and Matthew decided not to see each other before the ceremony, but instead chose to spend a very special moment silently holding hands around a corner. It was awesome… there were tears… some may or may not have been mine. I feel like I should be describing how absolutely beautiful everything was, but …. I will let the pictures do that! I can not even begin to think of a better way to have spent my new year’s eve than hanging out with this awesome group of people celebrating Hallie and Matthew’s love for each other!

Alright… we are getting ready to show off Hallie and Matthew’s AMAZING new years eve wedding in Austin, TX… but first.. the bridals! Hallie is so beautiful! She made my job very easy Their wedding post is coming up VERY soon!

Look at her! She is just so stinkin’ cute! We photographed Mia’s mom and dad’s wedding a while back… how awesome is that! She is super adorable and loves peek-a-boo… don’t let her fool you though… she is pretty feisty!

We shot Daren and Danielle’s wedding this summer… and I would like to point a few things out. #1- Yes, I know it has taken me a while to blog this wedding #2-No, these are not a bride and groom model from those fancy wedding magazines…. Daren and Danielle are just that GORGEOUS! #3- Get comfy! This blog post might be a little lengthy. Okay, moving on! Daren and Danielle were married at the Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers, Arkansas. It is such a lovely place for a wedding… beautiful and classy indoor areas and amazing places for pictures outside. Most of the time it takes guests a while to warm up to the dance floor, but not this bunch! They definitely win the award for “bustin-a-move” on the dance floor faster than any other wedding I have ever attended! They also might have had the most epic exit from a wedding ever! They used streamer poppers, but there’s more to it than just telling you they used streamer poppers. As they were walking through and everyone shot them off at them… they sort of became a spiderweb. The streamers wrapped around Daren and Danielle and… well… Danielle went down. Yep, all the way down (thankfully her fall was broken by the videographer!). The best part was when Danielle got up laughing hysterically! Enjoy!

Here is Abbey! She is so fun and was totally up for anything! We had pretty much missed all of the pretty Arkansas fall colors, but then I remembered a little side street that I had seen earlier… and ta da! Fall color! We ended in a field (and almost froze to death). I would like to say that I had planned on being there when the full moon was out, but in all honesty… that was just luck! I love that the full moon shining on her wrapped in the blanket!
