Whew! This is a saucy couple!  Fun, relaxed and they even come with a sense of humor!  While it might have been grossly overcast outside, that didn’t stop us from getting some gorgeous romantic photos that capture their style and passion for each other.  Urban environments are my absolute favorite so when we came across […]

I’m absolutely in love with the historical and ruin-like location for this engagement session.  Devoting time to finding new and unique locations for clients is a full time job by itself!  Especially when the location is over two hours away…doh!  But it was completely worth it!  I loved taking this timid couple out to a remote […]

After being married for 10 years, the romance is still alive and kicking in these two!  Casually cool, they flirted for the camera better than the newly engaged couples I usually photograph.  I got to spend some time with their three fur babies too!  We also spent a little bit of time getting some after-dark […]

 Absolutely gorgeous.  That’s what this couple is!  Sean had a passion for the beach and Lauren wanted a location reminiscent of their time at the annual fair together.  (If you’re an avid Motley Mélange follower, you know how much love a carnival!)  So here we are in Galveston and Kemah! Shooting along the beach is one […]

Wedding Photography.  It’s more than just about showing up at your wedding and photographing your family.  I truly believe that it should be an experience.  Your photos are precious and your relationship with your photographer should run deeper than the ink in which your terms are written. But how will you get to know someone before you book […]

Here they are: Rainatu and Aziz, setting the bar for an elegant engagement session at the Rice Lofts downtown.  This is one way to beat the Texas heat for a summer time photo session.  Rainatu is so graceful and classy!  I mean, just look at her!  Aziz, you’re a lucky lucky man. <3 I’ve been […]

These two.  Absolutely sweet, gracious and oh so beautiful.  Photographing a traditional Sierra Leonean proposal was a first for the Motley Mélange team and we can’t wait to do it again!  It was intimate and magical.  The most magical part about it being how they managed to fit all of their family members in their house, haha! […]

Over the bike trail and through the woods, to the Houston Arboretum I go.  I love this location.  It’s always different every time I go.  This time I got 5 foot tall weeds, gorgeous little sunflowers and some wonderful overgrown paths.  I also got ants…and mosquitoes.   (Don’t worry–no clients were harmed in the making […]

Here we are in the glorious mountains of Colorado.  Yes, it may be summer and by some crazy act of Mother Nature, we got snow!  (I’m not sure if The Big Guy upstairs thought this would be a fun joke or if he was blessing us with something we didn’t know we needed, haha!)  Flying in from […]

Summer time is made for outdoor picnics, family gatherings, boat rides, boardwalk dinners, fireworks and love.  Jess and Yemi and knocked this boardwalk engagement session out of the park with their casual resort attire, gorgeous smiles and breathtaking passion.  Getting a phenomenal couple like this one in front of the camera makes me fall in love […]

It was an early morning for these engagement photos in the park but Amanda and Kyle showed up bright-eyed and bushy tailed!  When I mention a sunrise session, most couples shiver and then give me look that implies that they think I’m crazy.  Well, maybe I am but let me give you three rebuttals that explain […]
