Oh Austin, you just keep delighting me with all of your beauty!! I have always said that if I could just get out of Lubbock and have more variety, trees and options that my photography would really grow and I just keep loving it more and more here!

I wanted to find a couple to explore S. Congress Ave with and found Connor and Rikta on social media- they were the PERFECT fit! We explored so many new areas and I am in LOVE with all of the color!

These two began dating year ago and so it was a special weekend to do their session together- their one year anniversary! Rikta is a neurophysiologist and Connor is a sonar engineer for submarines! I loved getting to ask them about their fields of work and how they got into their fascinating careers.

We found some of Austin’s finest murals on South Congress and I always LOVE the energy some wild, colorful wall paintings can bring into a couple session.

These two showed me their best dance moves while listening to the Austin Motel pool party going on behind them. The scene on South Congress is so lively and fun. I was pretty impressed with their dancing moves too.

We ended trying to get the capital and downtown in the background in the middle of the street. There was a family beside me on the opposite side of the crosswalk that kept kissing and dipping and cheering too. Thank you Connor and Rikta for letting me explore Austin with you two!
