Johanna & Jimmy | Engagement

We had the pleasure of spending a gorgeous afternoon with Johnna and Jimmy at Hermann Park. They’ve known each other since their teens, and I think they balance each other out so well. We all had a great time walking around the park. Here are some of my favorite images from their session.

Alice & Lance | Engagement

Serendipity photography asked me to tag along with them and shoot Alice and Lance’s engagement session, since I’ll be shooting their wedding as well.  I’m always more than happy to shoot an engagement session with the couple before the wedding. It gives me a chance to meet the couple and get to know them before their big date. Alice and Lance are both from Taiwan, and they met, of all places, at Lubbock, TX. I sure can relate to them, since I also grew up in west Texas. It seems like Alice and Lance were meant to meet each other. They grew up in the same small city in Taiwan, they both went to single-sex schools in Taiwan, and their schools were brother/sister schools, and some how, they both ended up at Texas Tech in Lubbock and found each other.

Here are some images from their engagement session:

Doan & Andy | Wedding

I joined Serendipity Photography for Doan & Andy’s wedding reception. I was told that Andy was an architect, and made all the decorations themselves. Hands down, this one of the more creative weddings I’ve been to. I had a blast shooting their wedding.

Keisha & Neil | Wedding (Part 2)

The last day of Keisha & Neil’s wedding is very westernized. Today’s event is the reception and dinner, followed by lots of dancing. We stopped off at an Indian temple first to grab a few shots of Keisha and Neil before heading back to the reception hall.

Feels like we’re in India

Keisha & Neil | Wedding (Part 1)

I’ve always known that Indian weddings are a big affair, but when Serendipity-Photography asked me to join them on Keisha and Neil’s 3 day event, I was pretty surprised that 3 day weddings even exist. I started my shooting on day 2 of their grand wedding, which was filled with a horse, men carrying in the bride, and a beautiful yet elaborate ceremony. Here are some pictures:
