When it was time to propose, Chadwick told Erin to “be cute” for a birthday surprise he had planned for her.  He took her to his grandfather’s old ranch, just before sunrise.  As the sun was rising over the Texas Hill Country, Chadwick got down on one knee and asked Erin to be his wife.  She said yes and the two celebrated with champagne and breakfast, with violin music serenading them!

Last Friday, they met me for their Texas State Capitol Building engagement photos.  Here’s a peek at some of my favorites!

Chadwick had Erin’s ring designed and made in Florence, Italy.  He also used an heirloom from Erin’s family as the center stone.

We had to try TWICE for this photo-bomber free shot of the back of the capitol building and it was so worth it!  Thank you for making the trek all over Texas (practically) in your heels so we could get this image, Erin!

Erin and Chadwick – thank you so much for making time in your busy schedules for your Texas State Capitol Building engagement photos!  I’m so thankful for the chance to have met y’all before the big day this Fall!
