I was thrilled at the opportunity to shoot our first wedding at Moffitt Oaks in Tomball last weekend! I had already seen some of the amazing photos of the ranch-style property on the web site, when Jody and Sae asked me to shoot their wedding. Adding to the excitement was the anticipation that Jody and Sae’s special day was going to be brimming with beautiful details because they had so many great props and ideas at their engagement session. They did not disappoint. My favorite detail was the custom etched mug for each of the groomsmen, which contained a boutonniere and gift. It’s rare that we get to shoot 2 outdoor weddings in the hot, humid city of Houston, in 2 weeks (see Vu wedding blog here). However, the staff and crew of Steve Lee Photography and our partners at Avalee Films were treated to a perfectly pleasant and sunny outdoor ceremony. Oh, yeah, and I think the wedding couple and guests enjoyed it too.
The ceremony took place lakeside in a beautiful outdoor setting with the fountain as the backdrop. But honestly, the stars of the show were the two perfectly behaved dogs, who strutted down the aisle in their tuxedo and dress! The reception was at the Barn, a charming rustic venue at the back of the property. Some of my favorite images of the night were the ring shot with sparklers and the couple standing by the opened barn doors.
Jody and Sae shared a private last dance (which I love!) before Jody changed to a more casual dress for the spectacular sparkler exit.
