St George Orthodox Christian Church and Alden Hotel Houston Wedding Photography – Johanna + Jimmy

Wednesday, July 21, 2010 Posted in wedding

Johanna and Jimmy don’t need any introductions. By now, their wedding pictures should be all over Texas in bookstores, newsstands, and grocery stores. Basically, anywhere that carries The Knot Texas Magazine. The wedding was so amazing, and it wouldn’t happen without some of the Houston’s prestigious vendors including Alden Hotel, Darryl and Co, Plants n Petals, The Perfect Face, International DJ Sounds, Cakes by Gina, and etc. So many of them wanted their wedding images for their portfolio. We are very lucky to be a part of this incredible day and able to capture all the wonderful moments on “film”!

The wedding preparation started in the morning at the bride’s home. What a gorgeous Amsale gown!

Hermann Park Engagement Portrait Session – Chinh + Billy

Monday, July 19, 2010 Posted in lifestyle engagement

It was a beautiful day; we had everything going for us! The tree and grass were so green, the wildflowers were blooming, the weather couldn’t be any better, the perfect light was shining, and we got to hang out with our good looking and fun couple Chinh+Billy! With these perfect ingredients, we got the perfect product: Killer Pictures! Here are several from the portrait session:

When they first started dating, Billy was too shy to hold Chinh’s hand. So this was what he did…

First Baptist Church and Private Home Wedding Photography – Courtney + Adam

Thursday, July 15, 2010 Posted in wedding

Yay, finally a wedding blog! We are long overdue. Wedding blogs takes much longer to create, and we have been spending most of our time on wedding albums lately. Gotta keep our brides and grooms happy you know!

Today we have our cute couple Courtney and Adam’s wedding to share with you! You might remember their engagement session and bridal portraits we posted before. They have got to be the most laid-back couple in the world. It seems as if Courtney and Adam both didn’t have a care in the world that day — they just wanted to truly enjoy their big day. Everyone was so relaxed and had a fabulous time! They had their ceremony at First Baptist Church and the reception at their parents’ gorgeous house in Pearland. We love how the pictures turned out!! Enjoy

Bridal gown on a tree, fun!

It’s nice to have some entertainment, especially for the guys, before the wedding ceremony. Here’s Adam (the groom) and the ring bearer getting rid of some nerves before they walk down the aisle!

Y’all already saw Alice and Lance’s formal engagement session a few weeks back. We also had the pleasure of shooting their engagement session at some of our favorite locations in downtown Houston. Lucky us, it was a beautiful day– and not to mention the cute and fun couple. Checkout the pictures and you’ll see what I mean!
