Downtown Houston Engagements: Terry + Luis

Downtown Houston Engagements: Terry + Luis

Terry spends her time as a Travel blogger and influencer photographer here in Houston, so we couldn’t think of a more appropriate location for her engagements than right in the heart of downtown Houston. She wanted something that captured both the city, and Houston’s diversity and nature, so together we chose Boomtown Coffee on Main Street, and then headed to the Dunlavy for some gorgeous golden hour shots.

It was so cool to meet up with Ariel after like, what, 12 years?! Ariel and I (Mikala) went to middle and high school together! After graduation, I moved to Houston, and you know how that goes. BUT, when Ariel reached out to us to do some fun/casual engagements for them, we were thrilled and gave a resounding “Absolutely!”

Downtown Discovery Green Houston Engagements: Courtney + McCae

Courtney & McCae, you guys are just ADORABLE, honestly!

Courtney contacted us to be the photographers for her wedding after a photography horror story where the previous photographer basically ghosted them after she paid her deposit. What a nightmare! It is stories like hers that inspire us even further to try and provide the best client experience that we can.

Our 2nd Anniversary!

Our 2nd Anniversary!

April 10, 2018 marked our second year as husband and wife! Our celebration included a stay at the immaculate Hotel Alessandra, a movie date, massages and relaxation time at Fiori Day Spa, being chauffeured in a Maserati (SO FREAKING COOL) to dinner at the impeccable Potente Restaurant in downtown Houston, brunch at Bosscat Kitchen & Libations, which is now one of our favorite brunch spots, and ultimately, just enjoying each other's company. :) Also, we couldn't celebrate a milestone without some pictures, so in true Josh & Mikala fashion, we set up our tripod for some fancy selfies. ;)

The Ellisons' Little Pumpkin!

The Ellisons' Little Pumpkin!

Let me first say, we have absolutely loved being able to see little Emmy grow! (even if it only has been 3 months! haha) This little pumpkin was simply adorable in her strawberry costume, and in the words of Josh, "What. A. Doll!" You know you can't deny it!
