If you're a couple who loves nature settings and want the all the urban benefits of still being inside the Austin City Limits, Pecan Springs Ranch may be your perfect wedding venue! 17 naturally beautiful acres full of pecan and oak trees make the best backdrops for unforgettable weddings.
There is a peaceful calm that envelops the 17 acres of Pecan Springs Ranch. The creek, pond, and surrounding trees invite guests to enjoy being surround by nature. That's why it's popular for al fresco receptions under the string lights.

The back wall of the reception space of Pecan Springs Ranch is mostly glass. This allows you to enjoy the nature views, while remaining safely tucked away in the air conditioning. If rain happens on your wedding day, you can still enjoy the views out of the elements (proof below).

There are so many photo backdrops at Pecan Springs Ranch that I have to ask my couples which ones they want to prioritize (or we would spend the entire day trying to include them all). The creek? Pond? Love Shack? Hill Country views? Outdoor stone fireplace? Bet.

You've invited the guests, found the dress, and designed the wedding of your dreams, bursting with flowers! You're now looking for a photographer who takes all the pretty pictures, is detail-oriented, and will make sure everyone enjoys the process of being photographed (especially you & your fiance).
You want all the vibrant greens, beautiful blooms, and soft, natural light captured just as it is - no heavy filters allowed! Just the pure, gorgeous colors that you and your wedding planner spent months making sure are just right!

Your fiance, bless his heart, isn't the biggest fan of photos, but he knows how much they mean to you. You think he's pretty handsome & want a photographer who can make him feel comfortable and maybe even have a little fun with it. Someone with a sense of humor & light-hearted approach is ideal!
02.
You also want your wedding party to have a blast on your wedding day. You have such a fun group of friends, and you want your photos to reflect that connection, energy, and joy. Posed photos are great, but those candid, joyful moments are everything to you - the laughs, the silly faces, and all the dance floor antics!

A wife, believer, proud Great Dane-mom and international wedding photographer serving Austin, Texas couples. Since 2010, I’ve photographed over 350 weddings throughout the Texas Hill country and beyond.
I believe your once-in-a-lifetime celebration deserves a professional who not only takes pretty pictures (insert all the heart eyes) but serves as your cheerleader, voice of reason, and moral support. Because the truth is, so much of the feeling of joy when looking at your pictures is tied into the experience of taking them.
My favorite getaway is Belize!
And yes, I’m still trying to convince my husband to buy property in this tropical oasis where we could live at least 1 month out of the year. It’s the perfect place for a reset!
Think: Leanne Hainsby-Alldis
I provide constant feedback and plenty of “Yes to You!” shout-outs so you’re never left wondering, “What do I do with my hands?”
I absolutely love to bake!
I’m most likely something baking something with chocolate. Cookies, anyone?

My favorite hidden talent I have is helping you feel comfortable in front of my camera.
I love helping all of my clients feel comfortable and the most confident in front of the camera.

My go-to cocktail is a Bourbon Peach Smash.
I make the drinks while my husband Dylan mans the grill. We make a great team.

I’m an Enneagram 5 with a 4 and 6 wing!
This combination allows me to see the beauty in everything and foresee problems - you have to use both at weddings!

Mylah made every moment so fun, casual, and natural. Our engagement photos with Mylah helped us to get an idea of how she worked and made it even more comfortable to be around her on wedding day. We chose Mylah after reading her numerous amazing reviews and how other couples felt she kept them calm and comfortable in front of the camera. This was 100% accurate. We are not used to being photographed and we were both pretty nervous about looking awkward in our photos, but Mylah has this ease about her that makes the process so natural and seamless. She got us laughing naturally in photos and the quality of photos she captures reflects that. Even my family commented on how much they liked Mylah when taking our family & wedding party photos.

She has a magical way of making you feel immediately comfortable. She is creative and curious and always looking for the best shot, but you're so distracted by how much fun she is to be around that you forget you're being photographed. She is energetic, positive, kind, and effortlessly brings out your silly side! Working with her feels like hanging out with an old friend. And the photos that result are pure gold.
Sarah S. - Pecan Springs Ranch Bride
She made our wedding and engagement photos so easy and fun. Even my husband who usually hates taking photos enjoyed it and sings her praises. The photos turned out so beautiful and I have never felt so confident. She is so talented and I love the creative and stylistic choices that she made. Do yourself a huge favor and take away some of the stress of your wedding by choosing her, you won't regret it!
