This month we had the unique opportunity to be the first to film at The Red Berry Estate.  The Red Berry Mansion has been beautifully restored and completely reimagined to a new generation in San Antonio. Graceful Moments Weddings invited us along with some of San Antonio's finest event and wedding pros to create a Hollywood Glam styled wedding shoot. See what we created here:

The possibilities are endless on this impeccable property, you can truly let your imagination soar. Thank you so much to Graceful Moments Weddings for inviting us to take part in this shoot. We can't wait to produce amazing events here!  Check out some behind the scenes photos by Ata Girl Photography.

I want to know what you think:  Did you love the style of this shoot?  What would be your style if you did your wedding or quinceaña
at The Red Berry Estate?  Let me know your thoughts in the comments.  

Catherine & David met in geometry class during summer before their sophomore year in high school.  Little did they know, they had just met their soul mate they would eventually fall in love and forever go through life learning together.  Seven years later on New Year's as the clock struck midnight, and the fireworks began to sprinkle over the Hayes Street Bridge,  David got down on one knee, reached into his camera bag and pulled out a ring.  As always their entire family was there to witness an amazing moment.  It was important to them that they be able to witness their wedding.

They had to change their wedding date once, to ensure David's brother would be able to travel to be there for the wedding, and then the COVID pandemic put us all in limbo.  As we got closer to the wedding date, Katie worked with her vendor team to ensure we would be able to pull off a safe, beautiful and fun event to bring their families and close friends together for such an important and momentous occasion.  Masks, sanitizer, and social distancing practices were all implemented to ensure we would have a safe event.

Leave some love for the happy couple in the comments below!  

Plans were made, and then they were adjusted, and then they were rescheduled, and adjusted again.  In these COVID times, we must be flexible.  Rose and Victor had been planning their wedding for eighteen months.  However, their wedding day could not have been more perfect, even though the party has been postponed until next year.  They celebrated the sacrament of marriage at St. Leo The  Great with their close friends and family supporting them with love on July 25, 2020.  It was a beautiful, safe and socially distanced Catholic Mass wedding.  As Victor was getting ready, he selected a song to play as they exited the church so he would have his first dance with his beautiful bride and all their friends and family around to witness.  He knew he had found the perfect song, when he broke down in tears.  She was so surprised, and the moment was magical.

After the ceremony we headed downtown to the riverwalk behind the Tobin Center for bridal party photos.  We love capturing large bridal parties having fun, and on this day we got some extra dramatic wind for our photos since Hurricane Hanna was just blowing through the area.  By special request we also got some epic portraits of Rose and Victor in the theater district.  I love a good dramatic bride and groom portrait, and these two lovely people were such a pleasure to capture!

I cannot wait to celebrate these two as they intended.  The champagne will flow and the dancing will be epic.  But until then, I wish Mr. & Mrs. Garcia all the best in their marriage and happy ever after!
