Jessica, Jonathan & Lois the Corpse Flower! - Houston, TX

August 17, 2010

I'm sure you were all well aware of the fame of Lois the Corpse Flowe r on display at the Houston Museum of Natural Science. And you've most likely heard of Jessica & Jonathan, whose wedding was scheduled right about the time she had decided to bloom and give off her lovely stench! Well, Dianna & I were privileged to cover this intimate and suddenly, quite famous, wedding!

Jessica & Jonathan began and ended their special day at the fabulous Hotel ZaZa. My favorite image of them was completely unposed. They crashed in the easy chairs at ZaZa at the end of the night. Classic! Enjoy the gorgeous colors & fabulous faves!

Sara & Alex - The Bell Tower - Houston, Texas

March 31, 2010

| Weddings

Sara & Alex were married at the Bell Tower here in Houston. This was one GORGEOUS wedding! They opted to see each other before the ceremony so we were able to take advantage of some relaxed time together with them. We had fun picking on Alex about his ever-handy cell phone. See if you can spot it :).

Darryl & Company delivered amazing flowers, Susie created another beautiful (and unbelievably yummy!) cake & Cafe Caspian catered a fabulous meal for the evening. Sara's makeup and hair were done by the fabulous Cindy with Blush M akeup Artistry. Feast your eyes... (and that first layout... Dianna, the detail queen, is totally responsible! )

Nadja & Lance are one of the most fun couples I've worked with. Life for them is very uncomplicated... just have fun and things will be good :). And that was pretty much what they managed to do on their wedding day. They were married at Prince of Peace Catholic Church & celebrated at the Enchanted Cypress Ballroom complete with tables named for favorite Disney Movies, Guitar Hero for guests to play & Chucks for the groom & his crew! Take a gander at some of my fave images...

I really can't say enough wonderful things about this wedding. I was privileged to work with some amazing folks, not to mention my gorgeous bride and groom. Valerie Vance Alaniz with Bridal Trends Weddings & Event s planned a gorgeous event and Claudia with A Day to Remember did a beautiful job with the cakes & linens. Gerardo Garmendia & his wife, Angela took care of the videography and did a fabulous job! Dianna rocked the second shooting like she always does...several of the images below are due to her amazing eye! I couldn't have asked for a more professional, friendly group of people to work with and the result was one heck of a gorgeous wedding! Brace yourself for some serious EYE CANDY...

Doug & Elaine - The Wedding - Hotel Derek - Houston, TX

December 15, 2009

| Weddings

Elaine & Doug had both their ceremony and reception at Hotel Derek... and I have never seen it so gorgeous! They opted to see each other before the ceremony for a "couples" session & it totally paid off. D arryl & Co. handled all the details and did a fabulous job! I had a hard time narrowing down my faves... so ready yourself for a little blog post overdose ;). Check out the little guy with the camera... he was taking pictures of US all night long! (and all credit due goes to Dianna, my right-hand "man", for the fabulous shoe shot & ring shots!)

My goodness. It's been nearly a month and a half since I blogged! Needless to say it's been a very busy few months. Stay tuned for many more blog posts as I get all caught up and share all of our beautiful fall weddings & sessions with you!

I'll start with Laura & Matt. They were married at First Evangelical Lutheran Church & celebrated at the historical Magnolia Ballroom. I LOVED the perspective from the choir loft we were allowed to have at the church and because it was my first time to shoot at the Ballroom I was eating up all the new ideas! Enjoy the faves...
