We have so enjoyed getting to know Allison and Richard in our short time together! They are such a fun couple to be around, and everyone in their families was a dream to work with. Plus, Allison has a razor-sharp wit that kept us in stitches all day. Here are a few photos to give a a look into their very special day!
At Allison’s grandmother’s, we took a little time for a mini bridal session. It was done in an instant-I think we took them all in a span of 10-15 minutes!



Yes, that is the King of Pop singing in the bridal dressing room at Memorial Drive United Methodist Church.



Meanwhile, Richard caught up on some light reading that Allison gave him.

They didn’t see each other before the ceremony, but they did get to hold hands for a moment!



Can you tell which ones are fake walking? Hint: it’s the GIRLS.


A Shipley’s groom’s cake! Fantastic.


Cake or death? Richard might have gotten both if Allison didn’t love him so much!


The DJ had a special trick up his sleeve-instead of the girl who caught the bouquet, this guy had to put the garter on Richard!



Richard’s new sister in law loves him, she really does.


They are outta here!

Allison and Richard, you were an absolute JOY to work with! You have our best wishes for a happy marriage!

JD and I love love love doing sessions downtown. We like to go to a lot of the same spots each time, but there is so much variety, it’s hard to get bored! We so enjoyed our walk around town with Candace and Josh! They are such a fun couple, and we all had a good time putting some cute, goofy stuff together. Check out all the fun we had!









We’ll be seeing Candace again today for her bridal session, and we are very excited! Stay tuned!

Renee and Justin are such a sweet couple, I can’t imagine how anyone could possibly avoid loving these two! Maybe that’s why they had a humongous wedding at Moody Gardens with, no kidding, 26 attendants! Moody Gardens was such a beautiful place to shoot, and Renee and Justin were an absolute joy to work with from beginning to end. We’ll be getting together soon for a couples session with them in Galveston, and we can’t wait! Here’s a peek into their beautiful wedding day.


Seriously, 26 attendants. That’s not including the house party, ushers, flower girls or ring bearer! Here’s all 13 bridesmaids.















Good night, Renee and Justin!

Renee and Justin: The Bridal Session

Valerie and her family decided that it was time to get some nice photos taken to honor their mom. Isn’t that such a sweet idea? We had an awesome time exploring some of Brazos Bend State Park with them. We even saw some young alligators! …and you can bet that I kept a wide berth from them.
Enjoy this peek into our session for mom!





Thank you to Valerie and the whole family for a great session!

JD and I so enjoyed getting to know Allison and Richard at their engagement session! They live in South Carolina, so it was our first time meeting them. They did not disappoint. It was clear that we were a perfect match-we had a great time being goofy and just trying some fun stuff. Here’s some of our favorites from the session!

Allison told me that someone commented on this photo and said what it really needs is an explosion in the background. I couldn’t agree more.







Stay tuned for their wedding photos in a few weeks!

Wow, we really enjoyed Jolene and Cliff’s wedding! There were fun traditions, great food, and even better people! We had such a blast with these two and their families. Check out the fun we had!
Jolene looked like this all day, laughing and having a great time!

Jolene’s mom painstakingly worked on her dress. Wow!




This photo will go down in history as the first ever formal we’ve shared on the blog because I just can’t resist the cuteness!

Mr. and Mrs. Rock!



Maggiano’s was absolutely delicious!


We had a bunch of fun in the photobooth!


Jolene’s grandma took her turn in the photobooth and had us all in stitches! I think everyone was laughing to the point of tears or close to it trying to pin the mustache on Grandma!



Some of the kids got really creative with the props!



And they are outta here!



Like her friend Jake, Katie is also a senior this year and ALSO a member of her school’s top 10 percent of students. What an accomplishment! We loved exploring downtown and the theater district with her. Check out some of the fun we had!






Jake is a senior this year, and he’s in the top 10 percent of his class. GO JAKE! We had the pleasure of photographing Jake (and his good friend Katie, who you will see soon!) on a great day in Downtown Houston. We went all over-Discovery Green, Houston Pavilions, the Chase building…I am glad I wore comfy shoes! We had a great time making fun photos with you guys! Here’s a handful of our favorites from the day.





JD and I were so excited to do this maternity session with Keely and Chad! I’ve known Keely from a wedding message board since back when JD and I were planning our wedding, and it was great to finally see these two in person after talking online for so long.
We had a blast, and totally love the great photos we made together! Thanks for an awesome session, you guys! We can’t wait to meet Paisley!
