As we are covering Susan's wedding in the fall we arranged to have her portraits done before it got too hot outside. Fortunately after all of the rains and floods we were fortunate enough to have the weather hold out for the session at Hermann Park . Susan and Eric are getting married this fall at St Paul's United Methodist Church and Hotel Icon. Both are in the medical field which is also where they met each other.

Continuation of images from Brooke and Trey's wedding in Los Cabos, Mexico.
David traveled to San Jose del Cabo, Mexico this last weekend to cover the destination wedding of Brooke and Trey. The wedding festivities were held at the amazing Cabo Azul Resort. Brooke and Trey were so laid back and easy to work with as were their friends and family. It certainly was an honor to have been chosen to be their photographer.
In total 34 people were in attendance. Nearly all of them came in from Texas. The bride's signature color orange was reflected in various ways. From the invitations, programs, monogramed towels and dinner napkins, groom's tie and cufflinks, flowers and especially her shoes. David was also impressed by her wedding ring which was a diamond in the raw.
The ceremony was held in an unbelievable outdoor pavilion, El Corazon. It is an open-air, five story wedding chapel with candles, water falls and torches that overlooks the Sea of Cortez. All I can say is that it is simply an amazing location. The lighting, design and view were unmatched for an outdoor ceremony. A single lantern was placed at the front in memory or Trey's mother.
Following the cermony David led the couple down to the beach for sunset shots.
The cocktail hour and dinner was held outdoors on the veranda overlooking the beach at Javier's Restaurant. After dinner and toasts, the guests were invited inside for dancing and cake

Following the rehearsal for Brooke and Trey, guests were transported by vans to the town of Cabo San Lucas for dinner at Mi Casa Restaurant. They were greeted with Mexican beer, Mi Casa Margaritas and more. Throughout dinner, musicians strolled through as well as balloon and caricature artists. Following dinner, a portion of the group headed on to the infamous Cabo Wabo Cantina.

While on location in Cabo, David arranged to take the couple's engagement portrait. With such an impressive resort and great looking couple he managed to squeeze in a session directly before and after the rehearsal. Brooke and Trey were all in. As the couple lives in Dallas, we had not actually met in person and afforded us an opportunity to get to know each other a little better before the big day, not to mention walking away with some killer images.

David traveled to Los Cabos, Mexico last week for a fantastic destination wedding. We thought we would share some of the images of the amazing resort which opened in 2007 and is receiving all sorts of awards and praise. If you are headed down to Cabo you should definitely look into the Cabo Azul Resort. The facility is only 50% complete yet the attention to detail and design was unbelievable. The villas had full kitchens, oversized garden tubs and spacious balconies. David is ready to return, just name the date!

Katie and Blake were married on Good Friday at the Safari Texas Ranch and Laura was there to cover it. This one was such a fun one to cover as Blake and Katie are so energetic and creative. There were lots of personal touches that really made it special. Katie had her Kate Spade shoes dyed green (the same color as her Jeep!) and Blake and his groomsmen wore matching Converse All-Stars. The overall color scheme was orange and green and it really turned out great. The weather held out just right for the outdoor ceremony and the peacocks on the grounds provided much vocal entertainment. The reception was a hoot, from the entire bridal party's rendition of "Thriller" to the groomsmen later serenading the couple. AND her garter had a teeny tiny little pistol in it (not operational of course!). Congratulations you guys, I had a blast and thank you so much for letting me a part of your day!

David was on hand this past Wednesday to cover the NACE Wedding Trends 2009 Luncheon at the new House of Blues venue downtown. The theme for this year's event was Indian weddings and the vendors involved went all out! As one can expect with an Indian wedding, there were so many rich colors and textures in just about everything. The food and cakes were absolutely amazing as were the flowers, lighting, dancers and musicians involved. Radhika Day from Weddings in Houston was on hand to speak and offer her expertise in this specialized area. The board really pulled out all the stops for this one and the attendance was over 200 people!
David and Laura covered the wedding of Juliana and Kasper this last weekend at one of Houston's premier locations, The Corinthian. The couple had both their ceremony and reception in the venue. Kasper moved to Houston ten years ago from Denmark. Needless to say many of his family and childhood friends traveled far and wide to be there. In fact, one of his groomsmen, Gavin, who also emceed the toasts and introductions, came all the way from Australia to be apart of the special day. The couple wanted the ceremony to be very personal and reflected their Danish and American roots. There was a Danish cake as well as a traditional American cake (the Danish cake was filled with Marzipan and was very yummy!) They also did a Danish waltz and had all of the guests surround them while they danced. The crowd then moved in towards the couple and lifted Kasper off his feet to cut off the toes of his socks and present them to the bride! During the ceremony and for part of the reception, Juliana's father sang along to piano accompaniment of a family friend. Kasper's cousin also sang a rendition of "the Rose" and a Danish hymn during the ceremony. What a talented family they have! The ceremony was officiated by Rev. Rebecca Wilson while the amazing florals were provided by Wedding Flowers by Lisa. Following dinner entertainment was provided by Damon Pampolina of PRP Entertainment.
