Houston Science Museum Engagement

Ashley & Paige chose to have their engagement photos at the Houston Museum of Natural Science downtown.

This was my first time shooting inside the main exhibit hall. I have, on several occasions taken engagement photos, bridal portraits and wedding photos inside the butterfly museum. As a museum nerd, I was ALL about exploring all the great portrait options inside the museum!

There were so many fun places to take photos. I loved the anthropology hall, the dinosaurs and the energy floor. Each exhibit had it’s own style of lighting which made every image very moody.

One bonus of shooting your engagement photos inside the museum is the weather is perfect for your shoot every time!

Twilight-esk Engagement Photos

Taylor & Charrie’s twilight like engagement photos at the William Goodrich Jones State Forest.

Early in the year I met up with Taylor and Charrie at the William Goodrich Jones State Forest to take their engagement photos.

The way the trees are so close together and almost uniform really drew me to this location. For Charrie, it reminded her of one of her favorite movies, Twilight. It was also a bit of a dreary day, which really added to the effect.

I loved Charrie and Taylor’s choice of outfits. They were fun and whimsical and perfect for their personalities. Check out their engagement photography here.

 

Kleb Woods Engagement Portraits

Arnold and Maritza’s engagement portraits in Kleb Woods.

It was a gorgeous spring day when I met up with Arnold, Maritza and her two daughters. We decided to take a combination of engagement portraits and family portraits, because of course the girls are a big part of the wedding. This was my first time exploring Kleb woods. There were old structures around the main part of the forest and trails that lead all around the park.

We chose a path that lead to a small lake. Unfortunately, we also found so many mosquitos on the path. I was thankful for my AllTrails app to let us know where we were on the path and how far away from the main area we were.

The engagement portrait session was filled with laughter, smiles and of course mosquito dodging.

Ben & Savannah’s Houston Engagement Photos

Ben & Savannah’s winter engagement photos around the Houston Museum District.

I met high school sweethearts Ben & Savannah at the McGovern Centennial Gardens on a gorgeous “winter” day in Houston. After taking some photos in the roses, we headed to the tall grass structure inside the garden (I honestly don’t know what it’s called). Neither of us had ever been to the top of it. We took some photos going up and down, then we were shooed out of the garden because it was closing.

The sun was so gorgeous as it set behind the old oak trees around the museum district. We decided to walk the diameter of the garden. There were lots of smiles, giggles and always some goofing off.

Ben & Savannah have been together for nearly 10-years and plan on getting married later this year on their family’s property. Congratulations on your engagement and your upcoming wedding! I know it will be amazing!!
