What happens when a Chick-fil-a marketing manager and a Spirit airlines pilot get married? THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS! Kara and James are one of those beautiful couples that don’t have to say much for you to feel their love for each other. I can check, “Chick-fil-a cow appearance” off my Wedding photographer first checklist.

The wedding day began at the Maid of Honors house for getting ready, then made a move to the beautiful Chapel in the Woods at the Woodlands Church. I absolutely LOVE this chapel. This was my second wedding wedding here and every time I walk in, I am still amazing by its beauty. It really does feel like you are in the woods rather than Houston. The chapel needs no decor to make guests speechless when they walk in the beautiful big front doors.

After the ceremony, we headed back to the Maid of Honor’s home for a beautiful backyard reception. Everyone was busting moves on the dance floor that night! Even the bride and groom’s dog was out on the dance floor. The night ended with a unique send off of paper airplanes (since James is a pilot)!

My philosophy is simple: your wedding day was meant to be EXPERIENCED and not just posing in front of a strangers camera the entire day. I want to capture the must-have portraits and document you truly loving every moment of your wedding day.
