Rainy Day Engagement Session | Houston Area Wedding Photography | Lisa & Joey

While I do offer free in person consultations, sometimes the first time I meet the special couple {{who so carefully chose me to document their wedding day}} on the day of their engagement portraits. This was the case with Lisa & Joey, and I must say that I was immediately drawn to their quirky personalities. Their original session has been rescheduled due to rain and much to our surprise, the rain would show itself on their second attempt as well. After a quick regrouping we decided to stick it out and try to get some gorgeous rainy day shots. Lisa explained that their first date was very rainy, and it might have just been "meant to be that way". After seeing the results I couldn't agree more. Their images are intimate and lovely and warm despite the cool crisp air and sprinkles of rain that were upon us. Love conquers all.  Each of my wedding day packages does include a full engagement session, so if you are newly engaged I would love to chat with you more about what I offer and set up your very own couples portrait session showcasing the everlasting love you have for one another. Here are my favorite images from Lisa and Joey's engagement session located in The Woodlands, TX this past fall. I am anticipating a lot of love and laughter at their wedding later this year. 

Lauryn & Tim's Engagement Session | The Woodlands, TX | Wedding Photography

I am delighted to be photographing Lauryn and Tim's wedding later this year. As a wedding photographer one of my favorite moments is your engagement session. I utilize this time by learning more about your love story and how it began, how it's been, and where it is leading. I make sure to note subtle tendencies that will portray exactly who you are in your portraits. I always tell my couples to be themselves and snuggle up the same way they would at home on the sofa. My goal is for you to look back on these images and instantly recognize that same loving look he still gives you, or the same sweet way she melts into your chest each and every evening. Your engagement session is the first step in the adventure that is wedding planning. You'll use these love-filled images for announcements, save the dates, to display at your wedding, and to cherish for a lifetime. If you are newly engaged please send me an email using the contact form, I would love to speak with you about the wedding packages that I offer and get your Engagement Session scheduled. 

Randal & Aaron's Sun Soaked Engagement Session | The Carriage House | Houston, Texas Wedding Photographer

One of the most exciting things about getting engaged is the portrait session that will follow. This is the perfect way to announce the big news to all of your friends and family, to show off the ring he so thoughtfully chose for you, and to capture this most exciting time in your lives. There is nothing more beautiful than a woman who's been genuinely complimented- and there is not a compliment more genuine than the proposal of marriage. Your engagement portrait session can be scheduled at your wedding venue, like Randal and Aaron chose- Or I am always happy to provide a list of location options as well.  When you do choose to shoot at the venue where you will say your "I do's" it gives me a chance to look over the space and plan out how I will best document your wedding day.  Each and every portrait session with Us Plus Love includes a complimentary styling consultation where we will discuss the overall look and feel you would like to portray through these heirloom images. Outfit changes are permitted as time allows. Here are my favorites from Randal and Aaron's Engagement session at their wedding venue, The Carriage House Houston. I hope you'll enjoy the love and warmth that are radiating from these two.
