Nicole & Johnny at the Hyatt Regency

Nicole and Johnny's story began a little over five years ago, when they met at a Halloween party. Johnny thought Nicole was pretty and asked her out. At first she declined, but Johnny never gave up on that memorable girl he met. After about a year of asking, she finally said yes and they have been together ever since. Johnny knew he wanted Nicole to be his wife, so he proposed to her at Maggiano's during a romantic dinner. 

They had an elegant and classic wedding at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Austin, followed by dinner and dancing at Maggiano's (the same place they got engaged). They became an instant family when Johnny married Nicole, he also became a dad to Nicole's adorable daughter. Nicole & Johnny have truly found their happily ever after! Congratulations, to the new Moreno Family. Check out some of their awesome wedding photography. :)

Natassia & Dan at Red Ridge Receptions

I’m so excited to share these photos with you! This was a special wedding, my friend Natassia married the love of her life and asked me to capture her special day. I am so honored I could be there to celebrate with them and create some amazing works of art :)

Natassia & Dan’s love story began a couple years ago when they met at work. They enjoyed spending time together and share the same sense of humor. Natassia really liked Dan, but waited a while before she decided to start dating him. They soon came to a crossroad in their relationship when Dan got a job offer in Colorado. Dan knew Natassia was his forever girl and decided to propose to her. He surprised her with a ring during Christmas and she said YES. 

They had a beautiful wedding at one of my favorite venues, Red Ridge Receptions in Smithville. Natassia had a beautiful dress and wore her mother’s veil, in honor of her. They had a sweet ceremony where they exchanged their own vows. Afterwards, the party was on! Everyone danced and had a fabulous time. Here are some of my favorites!

Monica & Samuel at Mercury Hall

Wedding Photography | Photos by Martina

Sneak peeks from Monica & Samuel's wedding at Mercury Hall in Austin, Texas. These two were married on July 29th. They had a beautiful celebration on a hot summer day. They had the best fried chicken dinner ever, from Lucy's Fried Chicken. It's was so delicious! They kept their guests cool with popsicles, fans and cold beverages. Everything was so beautiful and I loved Monica's dress.  

Monica & Samuel meet in 2013, while teaching for the same school district. A friendship quickly developed and blossomed into much more; they fell in love. Samuel decided to propose to Monica in January. Samuel (being the gentleman he is) asked Monica's parents for her hand in marriage. He surprised her during a hike on a cold day in the Greenbelt park. They planned a beautiful wedding and brought their families together to celebrate. It was a gorgeous occasion! Here are some of my favorites from their special day.
