Kelly & Brandon | Attraction Session | Texas | Chris

Prior to this session, I had briefly met Kelly and I had never met her fiancĂ© Brandon. All I knew was that Kelly is absolutely gorgeous and I was super excited to photograph their Attraction Session! They requested an outdoorsy/ranch style location for their photos and one of Brisa’s friends came through with flying colors because the location was absolutely amazing and perfect for Kelly and Brandon. We started fairly early in the morning to take advantage of the beautiful morning light and we created some awesome images!

Thank you again for selecting La Brisa to photograph your engagement session and upcoming wedding. I hope that you LOVE your images and I cannot wait until your November wedding!

You can view more images from their session on the La Brisa Facebook page by clicking HERE.

52 WoA: Week 39 - Object: straight up shots and then straight down shots

from the top AND bottom?! challenge accepted. but now my arms hurt.

These are the new La Brisa business cards. Just received them recently and I wanted to show them off! We really wanted to do something different and fun with our latest cards and so these are 2"x2" with rounded edges. if you would like a few, let me know and I will definitely send some to you!
As a photographer, sometime you need to work on things outside of your normal purview and this project is going to help us (and you) challenge, grow and creatively develop your photography as a whole. Weekly for the next year, we will be sharing our images with you here!

For those of you interested in participating, PLEASE join us! The more the merrier! You definitely do not need to be a professional photographer, this is something you can easily do with your point and shoot, cell phone, ipad2, etc. You can comment with a link to your image here on our blog or on our La Brisa fan page or you can tag La Brisa Photography in your image on your own FB page or use the hashtag #52WoA on twitter that way we can share your efforts with everyone else! If you are interested in joining our La Brisa Aspiring Photographer Workshop group on FB, please request to join as we will also be sharing our images there too.

Next Thursday, May 3rd, Week 40: “Something at night” will be due. The image must be created between today and May 3rd. Good luck!
