Villa del Lago wedding Austin TX – Krissy & Joe – Austin Wedding Photography

WOW!  Krissy & Joe’s gorgeous wedding at stunning Villa del Lago was absolutely incredible!  We start with some of Krissy’s bridal portraits around the Villa, followed by the wedding day highlights.

With scenic views of Lake Travis in the background, Krissy & Joe exchanged vows on the beautiful overlook under perfectly sunny skies.

After the ceremony, it was time for group photos in front of the jaw-dropping waterfall, followed by pictures of the happy couple around the gorgeous villa (are we in Texas or Tuscany?!).   Later that evening, with that gorgeous sunset, we photographed a few more portraits of the happy couple as the sun quickly dipped below the horizon.  Loving friends and family helped the newlyweds celebrate the night away with lots of dancing, followed by a sparkler departure.

And if you want to become a really good dancer but need dance lessons first, call Krissy’s dad :)

Congratulations, Krissy & Joe!

Capri, Italy – Highlight Reel

We had the wonderful honor of photographing Lance & Crissy’s wedding on the island of Capri!   We flew in to Naples and took a car to the Amalfi Coast, where we caught a ferry in Positano that took us to Capri.  From there, we caught a taxi that took us up up up through the winding roads of the island to the town of Anacapri.  It’s much smaller (and much more calm) than the main town of Capri where our ferry landed.  It’s fun strolling the small square.  Enjoy the freshest seafood and devour gelato to your heart’s content all while enjoying incredible views.  The ladies can even have custom sandals made-to-order while you watch!

The views in Anacapri are spectacular, especially when you take the Monte Solaro chair lift to the highest point on the island.  The views during the ride are beautiful, taking you over citrus tree fields with sun-kissed blue ocean all around you.  It can be a bit windy at the very top!  But the views are worth it.  Take a short bus ride to our favorite beach on the island, Torre Saracena, situated in a small cove.  The water is calm for easy swimming, the views are spectacular, they have chairs and umbrellas to rent, and a surprisingly delicious restaurant (including handmade pasta).

When you find yourself back on the mainland, head to Sant’Agata for a delicious dining experience at Don Alfonso (Michelin 2 star).  Arrange a tour of their organic farm directly across the water from Capri.  While there, you might as well join a cooking class!  Also ask to see their subterranean wine cellar (originally built as an escape route from Saracen invasion in the late 800’s).

Here is a fun highlight reel with just a handful of our favorite places!
