So much of engagement photography is about capturi So much of engagement photography is about capturing the in-between — the way you look at each other when no one’s asking you to smile. We wandered through San Antonio chasing good light, real laughs, and quiet moments. These images were shot using a mix of Nikon and Fuji cameras, and I used a PolarPro filter on one of them to soften the highlights and bring even more depth to the tones. If you’re recently engaged and want photos that feel like you — natural, relaxed, and timeless — I’d love to help you document this chapter. 📍 San Antonio, Texas — #SanAntonioEngagementPhotos #SanAntonioPhotographer #TexasEngagementPhotographer #EngagedInTexas #DocumentaryEngagementPhotos #FujiFilmPhotography #NikonZf #PolarProFilter #UnposedEngagementPhotos #EmotivePhotography #PhotojournalisticPhotographer #christianmargainphotography

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at an engagement Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at an engagement session I photographed here in San Antonio, Texas. My approach is simple—no stiff poses, just real connection and natural moments. I want my couples to feel relaxed, have fun, and forget the camera is even there. If you’re planning your own engagement or wedding in San Antonio and want photos that truly reflect who you are, I’d love to connect. You can learn more about my process and see full galleries at christianmargain.com or through the link in my bio. This session was captured close to downtown, one of my favorite spots for its light and laid-back vibe.

After 12+ years photographing weddings in San Anto After 12+ years photographing weddings in San Antonio and beyond, I’ve learned one thing: trends will always come and go, but honest storytelling never fades. I’ve witnessed so many styles rise and fall over the past decade — from ultra-muted tones to overly posed shots — and through it all, I chose to stay true to something deeper: documentary wedding photography. When I say documentary, I mean capturing your day exactly as it unfolds — the real moments, the raw emotions, the true essence of your story. Not staged. Not forced. Not whatever is trending on Instagram today. One of the biggest honors in my career was photographing the wedding for Philip Thomas — a photographer I deeply admire for his commitment to honest storytelling. Photos above shot for Philip Thomas Photography. That experience reinforced everything I believe about this work: the real beauty of a wedding lies in the candid, fleeting moments we might otherwise miss. Because when you look back at your wedding photos 5, 10, even 20 years from now, it’s not about remembering a trend — it’s about remembering how you felt. The emotions. The connections. The beginning of your story together. Color plays a huge role too — staying true to natural, timeless tones ensures that your memories will never look dated, only deeper and richer with time. I’m not here to chase trends. I’m here to tell your story with honesty, heart, and a vision that will stand the test of time. 🖤 If you believe your wedding memories deserve to be as real and beautiful as the moments themselves, you’re in the right place. #SanAntonioWeddingPhotographer #TexasWeddingPhotographer #DocumentaryWeddingPhotography #RealWeddingsRealStories #AuthenticWeddingPhotography #TimelessWeddingPhotos #CandidWeddingPhotography #SanAntonioWeddings #WeddingPhotographyWithHeart #StorytellingPhotography #UnposedWeddingPhotography #WeddingPhotographyJourney #TrueToColorPhotography #ModernYetTimeless #EmotionalWeddingPhotography
