Baby [M] | Houston New Born Photographer

whosHu — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 03:42:45 +0000

Meet baby [M], 7 weeks old on the day of the shoot. She goes from sleeping, to crying, to smiling, then back to sleeping in a span of 10 seconds, all you have to do is put a bottle in her mouth. I guess that’s the simple pleasure of life for a baby. We did the shoot with all 3 generations of the family present. Baby [M]‘s grandparents actually came in from Hong-Kong, so this is one well loved baby. Here are some of our favorite pictures from the new born session.

so peaceful

I thought this is a pretty funny picture with the tongue sticking out

Johanna & Jimmy | Wedding

whosHu — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 04:11:36 +0000

We shot Johanna & Jimmy’s fabulous wedding a while back. The ceremony was held at St. George Orthodox Church, followed by an incredible reception at the Alden Hotel. From hanging out with Johanna and Jimmy during the engagement session, I found out that their family will be coming in from all parts of the world, and I should be expecting a full on party with lots of dancing. They sure did not disappoint. Check out some of our favorite images from their wedding.

Baby J – Houston New Born session

whosHu — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 14:09:24 +0000

Meet baby J. At the time of the shoot, she was only 2 weeks old. She is so tiny! We were invite to capture baby J while she is still small, so on a very hot summer afternoon, Regine and I spent a few hours in doors playing with baby J. We had and great time, and I’ve never seen a baby who smiles so much while sleeping.

Look at the tiny toes! They’re the size of rice grains!

Sara & Ian | Wedding

whosHu — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 15:48:38 +0000

I had the honor of shooting Sara and Ian’s wedding this past weekend. I met them a few years ago through a MBA classmate. Ever since then, I’ve always known that they love to have a good time, but their wedding showed me that they really know how to party! They had their ceremony at Sacred Heart Church in Conroe, TX, and the reception was at Amber Springs. Below are some of my favorite pictures from their wedding.

Alice & Lance | Wedding

whosHu — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 16:47:33 +0000

Alice and Lance’s big day is finally here! Their family and friends poured in from all over the world to join them for their ceremony. Many of which barely stepped off an over night flight from Taiwan hours before. Alice and Lance decided to do a Taiwanese style wedding at Hotel Derek, it was pretty nice change for us, since I haven’t seen a Taiwanese wedding since I was a little kid.

I love the title page of their slide show

Alice and Lance’s international host parents came in from Lubbock to performed their ceremony

Time to party!

Someone asked Lance when they’ll be having kids, and this was his responds

After a quick outfit change, they walked down the aisle again. This time it’s all smiles

In Taiwanese tradition, the newlyweds will send their guests off at the door with a tray of candy.

The candy was really good!

Jazmin & Joe | Wedding

whosHu — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 18:37:27 +0000

Jazmin and Joe tied the knot on a beautiful outdoors wedding last weekend. We were blessed with a rare sunny yet low humidity day, perfect for outdoors wedding. The ceremony was held at Clipper House Inn’s garden in Kemah. The owners actually replanted all the flowers in the garden just for their wedding, how nice was that!? If anyone wants to do a outdoors wedding, I highly recommend The Clipper House Inn. Jazmin and Joe did a great job organizing the day, there wasn’t a dull moment at all. Here are some pictures from their wedding:

Gorgeous location

After several failed negotiations to get the ring (so we can take pictures), she decided to guard the ring with her head…

Thank you Jazmin & Joe for the fun times. Regine and I always get a big laugh every time we sort through these pictures!

Jazmin & Joe | Engagement

Regine and I met up with Jazmin and Joe on a chilly, but sunny afternoon for their engagement session. Jazmin and Joe have known each other since high school, but they only started dating after Jazmin moved out of state. 8 years later, they’re finally going to tie the knot! They were so much fun to shoot, thanks for braving the cold and coming out Jazmin and Joe!

Johanna & Jimmy | Engagement

whosHu — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 15:06:40 +0000

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.

This is probably my favorite shot of the day.

Alice & Lance | Engagement

whosHu — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 19:17:46 +0000

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:

They wanted a few pictures of them in their high school uniforms. Lance is making a move at the innocent Alice.

Lance really looks like a Taiwanese gangster, haha

Ending the night with a sweet looking couple.

Doan & Andy | Wedding

whosHu — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 15:00:50 +0000

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.
