A Cozy Intimate In-Home Photoshoot in Austin, Texas | Luke + Molly
Have you met Luke and Molly Schweim? If you haven’t, you are truly missing out. If you have met them, you know exactly what I mean.
Let’s see, where to begin?
I first noticed Luke and Molly (btw it is super weird to NOT say their names together for some reason LOL) in a photography group called LOOKSLIKEFILM. This group is widely known for being filled with incredible photographers from all over the world.
What attracted me the most to them was their sense of style and use of space and lighting in their photos. They are a husband and wife team of boudoir photographers but are also phenomenal in portrait and fine art photography.
After obnoxiously commenting on all of their posts and stalking them on every social media outlet, I messaged them with the fullest extent of excitement that I could offer. I wanted their friendship. They were so inspiring to me and I had to know everything about them.
We made our way to Austin, Texas back in February before COVID took over the world. We had a full week of plans but there was one thing I HAD to do before I left, and that was to visit the Schweim’s.
At this point, they had just moved to Texas from Minnesota and were in a brand new place both physically and mentally. You could even say emotionally.
We sat and talked over Luke’s kick ass waffles for breakfast about life and its struggles but also about its joys that it had to offer.
What better time to document this new and fearfully exciting time in their lives than in their beautifully aesthetic apartment?!
Molly has such a way with words. When you talk, she listens…. intently. She gives your feelings validation without even trying just by simply being present with you.
Luke? Oh man… Luke loves that woman with every ounce of his being. They are a force to be reckoned with.
Luke and Molly.
I will forever cherish our friendship. I will hold our deep conversations close to my heart until the next time we get to see each other!
