Sophisticated City-Chic Engagement Shoot by Ama Photography & Cinema

“Having met in Europe on independent vacations, our relationship has always been long distance, focused on traveling to be together,” says bride-to-be Olga, who will marry Brian next June. “We got engaged in Mexico and felt like we never had any pictures commemorating our time in Houston, where Brian is from and where we now live. Our focus was finding locations that we felt were true to Houston.” With help from photographer Aisha Khan of Ama Photography & Cinema, the pair found inspiration in oak-lined North and South Boulevards, and the verdant beauty of Hermann Park. For the second part of their shoot, Olga opted to wear a white tuxedo jacket to complement Brian’s traditional tux. Though you’d never know it, neither of these two had ever actually had professional photographs taken before, and were both very nervous. “However I think dressing up and using props such as the vintage chair helped us to be more in character. We could have never imagined such fantastic photos, all credited to the vision of our extremely talented photographer!” Kudos to Khan, and our sincere thanks to Olga and Brian for sharing their beautiful photos with all of us…and all of you.

Hermann Park Engagement Shoot by Alicia Pyne Photography

Sure, pretty much everything about Kara and Harrison’s sun-drenched Hermann Park engagement shoot is romantic and magical. But can we just talk about the bride’s amazing makeup for a minute…which she did HERSELF? We’ve gotta say, this is something of a “don’t try this at home, gals” situation. After all, most of us could not achieve this level of photo-ready flawlessness without some serious professional help. But kudos to Kara (who, clearly, is drop-dead gorgeous to begin with) for getting it oh so right. No wonder handsome Harrison looks so adorably smitten with his lovely bride to be! And big thanks to Alicia Pyne for the captivating photos of this fine Houston couple. Congrats all around!
