“Matt and Michelle’s wedding at Charleston Harbor Resort & Marina in Charleston, South Carolina was a beautiful celebration surrounded by family, friends, and waterfront views. The two first met while attending the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where Michelle was immediately drawn to Matt’s quiet and polite demeanor, something rare among college guys. Between his sweet dance moves and the fact that he was tall, dark, and handsome, Michelle was smitten right away. Matt, meanwhile, was captivated by Michelle’s infectious smile and warm personality, and it did not take long before the two became…”
Read More"On February 23rd, our practice got out early, which was a rare occurrence. As any high school girl would, I walked over to the other gym with my teammates to see the boys team scrimmage. They were scrimmaging some town I had never heard of; Roff. I stuck around the entire time, knowing a few of us wanted to take the floor after they were finished to get some shots up. To my surprise I caught the eye of one of the players from the opposing team. (As I get older I understand how small the world is, and how much smaller it is if you played sports.) One of my guy friends happened to know a guy on that team; the one who was interested in knowing me. He says, “Dude, I have to know who the redhead is.” Later that night I got a text from a number I didn't recognize…”

I was in a relationship at the time, so we were strictly friends who saw each other a lot due to mutual friends...which made us pretty close. I left A&M before the start of the Fall semester to go back to Oklahoma where I played college soccer. From the time I left, up until four years ago, we didn’t keep in contact besides keeping up with each other on social media. By this time, Derek had graduated and started working on the renovation of Kyle Field in College Station. I was finishing up my degree and soccer career in another state, before moving back home to San Antonio – still in the same relationship. It wasn’t until almost four years later…”

Having photographed at this iconic venue before, I was immediately excited to be back. Their wedding day was overflowing with laughter, heartfelt moments, and the kind of energy that keeps the dance floor packed, complete with crowd surfing and Hannelore herself rocking out with the band. One of my favorite details was the rosary Hannelore carried, a family heirloom passed down from her great-grandmother and also carried by…”

During our engagement, it was easy to pick Austin as the location for our wedding because we feel like that’s where our love for each other started, so why not go back and share our wedding with our closest friends and family in a location so close to our hearts? Once we visited Barr Mansion we knew it was the place where we would be married. Barr Mansion was truly a breathtaking place to get married. Joseph and I both love the outdoors and natural beauty. We felt that Barr Mansion encompassed the rustic elegance and natural beauty that we hoped to capture on our wedding day. We were also drawn to Barr by its historical elegance and wanted to incorporate that into our "theme," which is why…”
