Morning Engagement Session on Lake Travis

A sunrise session...


Addyson and Zachary switched it up when they asked if we could shoot their engagement photos on her father's sailboat. Docked on the banks of Lake Travis in Austin Texas, we met at dawn to board the S.S. Pure Joy. We wanted to get not just the sun rising, but the quiet dawn moments before the sun broke over the horizon.


Location scouting is an endless array of possibilities in Austin, Texas. Getting to photograph their engagements on the water was a first for us, but I hope it's not a last.
