Our focus was finding locations that we felt were true to Houston.\u201d With help from photographer Aisha Khan of Ama Photography &amp; 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\u2019s traditional tux. Though you\u2019d never know it, neither of these two had ever actually had professional photographs taken before, and were both very nervous. \u201cHowever 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!\u201d Kudos to Khan, and our sincere thanks to Olga and Brian for sharing their beautiful photos with all of us\u2026and all of you.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8989\" title=\"BOe-001\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/BOe-001.jpg\" alt=\"Sophisticated City-Chic Engagement Shoot by Ama Photography &amp;
