So cool! I love, love the black & whites! I’ve never been to Big Bend – must go.

Nice shots Matt! I especially like the one from the side of the white house.
Very nice! I really love the reflections.
I’m excited to share images from Chris & Rachael’s gorgeous wedding at Austin’s Texas Women’s Mansion. The wedding was styled and planned by BZ Events, and as you can see in the reception details, they turned the ballroom into a perfect winter wonderland for a December wedding.

Beautiful work, Matt! Congrats to Rachael + Chris!!!
Johnny & Siobhan were married on 11-11-11 at a private ranch home in Wimberley, Texas. Thanks to the amazing design of Christina Lewis at Weddings Warriors, great food and drink, and live bluegrass music, their wedding was one I won’t soon forget!
View slideshows of both the wedding and photo booth below.

[...] 11.11.11 mean something to you? Well, it did for Siobhan & Johnny, when they decided to marry at Siobhan’s parents Hill Country home in Wimberley. The setting, a field flanked by Oak Trees, which became a magical twilight setting with festoon lighting, and other dramatic lighting created by Eric Holtz Entertainment out of San Antonio. Add in some musicians with a Bluegrass twist, then a DJ to get everyone warmed up under some pretty cold Texas skies! The food, the food, sigh . . . a gourmet treat for this foodie couple – Salt and Time with their Charcuterie and then Austin Catering for some truly fab Fall Cuisine! Some beautiful photos from Matthew Johnson Studios to follow, but check out this adorable couple at: http://www.matthewjohnsonstudios.com/blog/?p=2202 [...]
