November weddings in Houston, Texas…it really doesn’t get any better than that. I love November, always have. The weather is cool and crisp (when it isn’t being funny), the air smells of wood burning, the colors turn and the holidays begin. I now have more reason to love it because of this incredibly lovely couple.

The first thing I noticed about Elizabeth was her smile. She’s got a smile for days. I met both she and her mom and I immediately found myself hoping that I would be the one lucky enough to capture the wedding day. Upon meeting Michael, I realized why Liz had picked him. He’s such a gentleman, and is so sweet with her.

This gorgeous day unfolded with traditions carried and continued for centuries and across seas. Witnessing and capturing this wedding was incredible! It went perfectly, and the only absence felt by everyone was Elizabeth’s Dad. Though nothing can replace the loss of a parent, he was fully present and he had the best seat in the house to see it all.

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Strohmann!

This is the story of two people who had the most perfect wedding day. God blessed this man and woman with wonderful friends and family who all came together to celebrate them vowing to one another their undivided love and devotion.

 I am THE luckiest girl, because they chose ME out of this saturated market where they had their pick of anyone they wanted. Two major things you should know about Shannon and Chris: 1) Shannon’s smile is one that could warm the coldest day. Her eyes light up and her cheeks flush pink. Her soul is pure and beautiful. 2) Chris is probably the most cheerful, happy and goofy groom I’ve ever photographed. During our engagement session, he greeted me with a huge grin. He was fun and playful and not afraid to be a little silly. After meeting his Mom, I see where he gets that BIG grin. Such a breath of fresh air <3. I loved the energy in the room during their beautiful ceremony. 

Their wedding day was seriously perfect. The weather, the sun, the wedding party and families…all amazing!  And the flower girls/ring bearers!  Wait until you see these little girls and boys…so precious!

I would photograph this day again in a heartbeat, but I’m SO glad to finally show you these two who have snuggled right into the core of my heart. Thank you both for giving me so much joy!

This wedding at ZaZa was LIT, y’all!

Steph and Charlie are such an awesome couple. They told me that their friends and family would be closing the night down with partying till the very end, but what these two failed to mention was that pretty much ALL of their friends are performers of some sort!  There were theatre majors, singers, contortionists, dancers, you name it!

So THAT’S why you’ll see a ton of reception shots in this story. There were just too many fun moments!  They were in the air, on the floor and all around. Something Steph failed to mention was that she can SANG!  All of the sudden, she hijacks the mic from the DJ and lays it DOWN.

One of the highlights was watching literally the whole guest list on the floor in full choreography mode acting out to Time Warp from The Rocky Horror Picture Show!  It was a top night!!

Of course the night wouldn’t be complete without all of their foster kitties turned family. They have 5 cats and a few more fosters that they made adorable Popsicle photo props with. I really loved how their day was an exact reflection of who they are and what they’re about. No put-ons and ZFG <3

Here in Houston, along the southeast suburbs are two bordering rivalry cities – Deer Park & La Porte.  They’ve been competing for winning titles since the 1940’s.  This Deer Park boy won this La Porte girl’s heart and they are doing a thing called getting married next year.

So let’s talk a little about their engagement session.  It was originally scheduled for October, but due to work scheduling, we needed to make it work earlier.  In August.  In Texas.  …In 102 degree heat.  Can I get a high five for these two that braved those conditions??  Not to mention the 100 steps down and back up – twice – to two different river bottom locations!

Afterward we all went for pizza and sucked down about 3 waters each.  We were all looking forward to vegging out on our beds and resting from the long day.  I had forgotten how DRY it is out there!  To the both of you, thanks so much for trusting me with your pictures, braving the heat and for the laughs we had that we will keep to ourselves 😉
