Nicola and Jason’s Engagement | Houston, TX
November 29th, 2009
Texas weather is so unpredictable. These kids engagement session was set for last weekend but we rescheduled it to yesterday because of the weather. So I wake up in the morning and it’s a beautiful blue sky without a trace of a cloud! Then all of a sudden that Texas winter starts to creep in, and before we know it it’s completely overcast. 
Normally this makes me sad; but Nicola and Jason literally turned on the heat last night so we didn’t need the sun!
OK so that was a bit cheesy, but I needed something to go along with the whole “sun” thing. Anyhow, so yesterday I finally got a chance to meet up with these kids for their pre-wedding shoot. Their wedding is being held next year at the Majestic Metro and we wanted to hang out before it started getting cold. In fact I think this will be the last warm weekend here in Houston until after the new year. Yay cold! Anyhow, here are a few of my favorites.
Graffiti wall off of Montrose some where (can’t remember).
The gardens by Hermann Park we’re in FULL bloom!
I love these “fleeting” moments. Other than the VERY last picture on this post, all of this is completely unscripted. No posing. Non-traditional. Completely unobtrusive…
…it’s the moments within the moments that I live for, and love to capture.
This is part of the Japanese Gardens at Hermann Park in Houston, TX.
I am on the ground like 1 ft way. In fact I think Nicola almost stepped on me. Just kidding. 
At the very end we’re walking out and I glance over at this spot and this picture flashes in my head. I kept walking, but the picture kept talking and telling me to stop. Normally I do not do these types of “camera aware” shots. I think it makes folks uncomfortable and forcing them to put on a fake smile subdues their true personalities. However, sometimes I like to change things up, and this was one of those times. I…love…this…picture. Completely relaxed and at ease! Nicola and Jason you guys rocked it!
Don’t forget to stop by Nicola and Jason’s Client Site that launches later this week!
