jessica&steven {post wedding} enchanted rock, fredericksburg, texas

I think we settled on a three different locations for Jessica & Steven's post wedding photos before finally sticking with Enchanted Rock outside of Fredericksburg, Texas. I had been once before, but it was purely for vacation & adventure, & I therefore wasn't thinking about it from a photo shoot mindset. I admit I was a little concerned with how everything was going to work out. However, I was very pleasantly surprised when the base of the rock was exactly what we needed & proved to have enough variety that we didn't have to venture that far from the parking lot.

The weather was about as opposite as you could get from their wedding day. While it never poured, it was definitely very drizzly, resulting in very different photos than the ones you see here. (Don't get me wrong, I love their wedding day photos!) But by doing post wedding photos, we could take our time, not be worried about guests waiting for us at the reception, & get sunny photos. We caught the sunset just right & got some amazing photos. 

Jessica & Steven were troopers for hiking around in their fancy clothes, & I thank them for being this adventurous. 

I'm also very happy to announce that I will be related to these two by marriage in a few short months! That means I get to see them more often! Jessica's brother proposed to my sister-in-law a few weeks ago & I cannot wait for the next wedding.
