We were so happy to see that Samantha and Brandon had spent time thinking about their pictures before their engagement shoot.  Samantha chose the perfect dress.  It was bright and looked great on her.  Brandon looked dressed up yet relaxed.  It was just great!  Our job is so much easier when the couple spends some time before their shoot really thinking about what they are going to wear and how they want to look.  And, the pictures always turn out better.  We love Samantha and Brandon's pictures.  Of course, Gruene is such a great place to take pictures because there are so many different settings so close together.  It was a bit cool down by the river (okay, it was probably cold), but Samantha was a trooper and didn't complain one bit.  It probably helped that Brandon just had to hold her closer to keep her warm...which made for even better pictures!

We are excited to spend the day with Samantha and Brandon for their wedding.  After seeing their engagement shoot, we know their wedding pictures will be awesome!
