Marina showed up and I knew my talent would have nothing to do with making a beautiful picture. Her classic look and clean style was a treat to document…try not to get lost in her eyes. I dare you:)
One thing I love about shooting senior sessions is that they inevitably become a fashion shoot….and I love fashion. Each senior brings their own fashionista flare and my job is to tailor our shooting locations to fit their style and personality. Fun right? I love fashion so these sessions are a nice switch-up from shooting weddings. Kelli came with some really cute outfits…and within five minutes of shooting I was wondering why she doesn’t do this as a side job. Such a natural. this one:)

this girl is gorgeous for sure!!! love her bold style and the confidence she portrays. i feel like i know her just looking at these images. that is a credit to both her and to you!! amazing work.
Check this lady out…she’s such a hipster (in the coolest way possible). Kate is wicked smart and has a laugh that fills all the empty spaces. We shot all around mid-town at some of my favorite spots. Lovin’ Kate in that blazer….

omg. lovin’ that pony print dresses. geesh. these seniors and their style! i cringe when i think about what i wore in my senior photos. ha!
Amber and Trevor are runners…legit runners…like, they run marathons. And not just one so they can say they’ve run a marathon, but multiple marathons. I envy such people. They started the day out writing each other a special letter on the numbers they wore on their first marathon. I loved it. So very sweet, personal, and creative…
Their wedding letters weren’t the only lovely, creative wedding element. As you’ll see, the wedding day was chalked full of personal, creative bits. For starters, Amber and Trevor were married in her parent’s backyard with the reception tented in the front yard. With the help of wedding planner, Kim Ho, the wedding day was a beautifully executed family event.

I have absolutely loved looking through your blog the past couple of days, but this particular one – made me smile, made me laugh, gave me chills – the most perfect wedding. Jessica, you are so fantastic at what you do – your pictures tell a great love story!

this is one of those weddings that makes me want to get married again (i mean, to the same amazing guy, of course). what a gorgeous ceremony, with so much personal detail and style. again, i felt like i was there (and kinda wish i was!). i recognize a couple of familiar faces in this post, one being one of the (ahem) older gentlemen breaking it down on the dance floor. =)

p.s. the pictures are beautiful as always!!

WOW. This post is AMAZING! I love every image! What an amazing wedding and an awesome job Jess, truly spectacular. That wedding looks so cute, fun and that reception looks like it was a total blast. Wow. You rock as always.
If possible…and it’s usually always possible…I try to photograph engagement sessions in a way that documents each couples personality, style, or story (or all 3 if I’m shooting on all cylinders). A pretty picture is even prettier when it means something. Taylor and Lauren had a lot of great pictures from their engagement session, but my favorites were the one’s we took at the location of their first date AND at the place of their engagement. Could there be a more perfect place to shoot their engagement session? So here we are, shooting in the Houston’s bar…in the exact locations where such great moments took place.
