What you get

No surprises after the shoot

You'll know before you book exactly how many images you get, when they arrive and what you can do with them. No paying extra to unlock the photos you love.

Kids melting down? Dog won't sit? That's normal. Most of our favorite shots happen in the five minutes after everyone gives up on posing.

About

Hi, I'm Elena.

I picked up my grandfather's film camera at 15 and never put it down. After a few years shooting for a newspaper in San Antonio, I moved to the Hill Country in 2018 and started Bluebonnet & Bramble.

I love the in-between moments: the laugh after the "serious" photo, the toddler escaping the frame, the grandparent holding a new baby for the first time.

When I'm not shooting, I'm probably at the farmers' market with my husband and our very photogenic heeler, Biscuit.

FAQ

Questions before you book

How many edited photos do I get?

It depends on the session: 10 for a mini, 40 or more for a family session, and 5 retouched images for headshots. The number is set before you book.

How long until I receive my gallery?

You'll get a sneak peek within 3 days and your full gallery within 2 weeks. Weddings take about 6 weeks.

Do you travel?

Yes. Travel within 30 miles of Fredericksburg is included, and beyond that it's $0.70 per mile. Destination weddings are quoted separately.

What should we wear?

You'll get a style guide when you book. In short, coordinate rather than match, pick two or three colors and avoid big logos.

Do you offer prints?

Yes. You can order lab-quality prints, canvases and albums straight from your online gallery, and you also get personal print rights to print anywhere.

What if it rains?

We'll watch the forecast together and reschedule for free if the weather won't cooperate.
