I Love My Job!!! Introducing Ufer Haus!

To say that there are a plethora of choices

when contemplating a stay in Fredericksburg, TX

is an understatement at best.

At last count, it was something 300-400 B&Bs 

and guest houses in the area. Whoa!

I'm here to make your choice a little easier.

Introducing Ufer Haus Guesthouse!

 Just way too cute!

I absolutely LOVE photographing

B&Bs, and living here in Fred

has me uniquely poised to do exactly what I love.

I have the best clients!

Mid-century coolness.

Loving all the modern-industrial

touches throughout.

Fully appointed kitchen.

Relax!

It's easy to do in these super cozy surroundings.

With three darling bedrooms,

it's a natural choice for girl's weekend getaways,

bachelorette parties, hunting weekends,

or a romantic visit to the winery mecca of Texas!

Adorable!

And this creek-side sitting area

just off the kitchen is just too lovely for words.

Ufer Haus will be open for visitors very soon,

be sure to head over to their Facebook page

and give them a well deserved "like"!

Happy Week!

Thank you, Creating Vintage Charm Magazine

I never take it for granted

when someone finds something 

worthy in my work. 

To be told 

"Yes, we'd like to publish your

photography, your story", 

well....

that's a huge compliment,

and I am so grateful for the times I've been

told just that.

 This time, I owe a huge debt of gratitude

to the lovely Sonia Cardona Crouse of

Creating Vintage Charm Magazine.

Sonia allowed me to share not only my photography,

but also a little essay on what life in our

1910 Texas farmhouse means to me.

The elements in the image above...

the lavender sprigs, the ironstone, the wasp nest...

all deeply personal and their simplicity

speaks volume to my vintage loving heart.

Many thanks Sonia,

for not only featuring my work in CVC,

but also in the lastest issue of 

Enchanting Photography Magazine, too!

You can order both of these

lovely publications right HERE.

Enchanting Photography Magazine

It was quite the honor

when I was recently asked by magazine editor

Sonia Cardona Crouse

if I would contribute to her absolutely stunning magazine

Enchanting Photography.

Sonia is also the editor of the wonderful

Creating Vintage Charm magazine,

which I'm also proud to say that I'm

featured in the current issue.

But for Enchanting Photography,

I wanted to submit something a little different,

a little more out of my comfort zone.

As the second shooter for a dreamy bridal session

earlier this year, { thank you, AL Gawlik Photography }

I knew that Ashley's bridals would be a perfect fit.

Although I had never shot bridals before,

Ashley's effortless grace before the camera

made my job super easy.

I was thrilled when the incredible floral designer,

Chelsea of I Love Wedding and Event Design,

chose my bouquet photo above to use as her

profile photo on mega wedding site The Knot.

But let's be honest....a stunning bride like this

makes it almost impossible to take a bad picture.

While the magazine might be titled 

Enchanting Photography,

I tend to believe that my subject matter

added the enchanting factor.

If you'd like to order a copy

of this lovely magazine,

please click HERE.

And I'll be back next time to share

more about my Creating Vintage Charm feature,

along with what else is new on this end.

Happy Week!

More B&B Fun...Cloud 9 Cottage!

One of my favorite type of 

photo shoots to book  

are bed and breakfast shoots.

There's no shortage of B&Bs 

here in Fredericksburg, TX,

so I keep super busy 

capturing their unique charm 

for local owners year 'round.

Cloud 9 Cottage is the fourth B&B that I've 

had the pleasure of shooting for owners 

Matthew and Melissa Mabery.

I shared my previous shoots for these fine folks

HERE

and

HERE

and now I'm delighted to showcase

their latest fun venue,

Cloud 9 Cottage.

Too cool, right?

Sweet as Sugar...Sugarberry Inn

 So imagine a place.

Dreams are as sweet as cotton candy,

and the imagination is fueled by equal parts

elegance and whimsy.

 Beds draped in decadent Bella Notte linens,

and cottages outfitted in the finest French antiques.

All in the heart of a quaint little 

Texas Hill Country town,

only minutes away from exceptional dining, shopping,

wineries, and countless other amusements 

and adventures.

There is such a place.

Sugarberry Inn

in Fredericksburg, Texas.

Now open for dreaming and discovering.

Birthed by Joe and Susan Giardina,

this labor of love enchants at every turn.

Broken up into two large suites

in the historic main house 

and 10 boutique cottages,

this is a lodging experience

one will not soon forget.

Prairie Willow and Hawthorn Suites

were styled by the sublime

Carol Hicks Bolton.

The remaining 10 cottages were

styled by local design genius

Kathy Young.

I was hired to photograph pretty much

every square inch of this property,

and rather than blather on about just how remarkable

these accommodations are,

I want the images to do the talking.
