Austin, Texas

Photography & Videography

In Austin: Golden hour in the Hill Country is genuinely spectacular, and it is also why the middle of a summer day is the worst possible time for outdoor portraits. From noon to five between May and September, direct sun on limestone and cedar makes everyone squint, sweat through their clothes, and look uncomfortable in every frame. Build the timeline around that: first look and family portraits either early morning or in the hour before sunset, with the ceremony placed so the photos happen when the light works. Ask any vendor you interview about their experience with the specific venue you have picked -- light behaves differently at a barn than at a hilltop pavilion. On the contract, confirm the second-shooter question, total hours, delivery turnaround, and how long the finished files remain in cloud storage. A gallery that vanishes in two years is a gallery you should have downloaded.
