Marfa Texas Engagement Photographer in West Texas Documentary Photography

______________

Desert, Mountain & High Plains Engagement Photography by Lauren Nicole

Marfa is in the Chihuahuan Desert in West Texas. Donald Judd came in 1971 and spent the rest of his life there because of what the light did. How it moved through the day across flat terrain and open sky.

This engagement session moves through the terrain surrounding Marfa. The desert floor. The Davis Mountains in the distance. Two people with nothing between them and the horizon. This gallery carries the tonal warmth and natural grain that the Chihuahuan Desert specifically rewards. This is light that analog photography was made for.

Marfa sits at around 4,700 feet elevation in Presidio County, roughly equidistant from Alpine, Fort Davis, and the gateway to Big Bend National Park. For couples who are making the journey to West Texas (for Marfa itself, or for the wider region) and want photography that treats the landscape with the artistry it deserves, Lauren Nicole Photo is an Austin, Texas documentary and editorial photographer available for engagement sessions, elopements, and weddings in Marfa, West Texas, and destinations worldwide. Let’s talk.
