I had the priviledge of covering Jennifer and Drew’s wedding a couple of weeks ago.  It was quite an event and you may have seen some of her bridal portraits in my previous blog post.

So, Jennifer got ready at a gorgeous suite at the amazing Hilton Americas.  The view of the downtown area  from the room was spectacular, with the George R. Brown Convention Center to the right and Minute Maid Park in the background.

The ceremony took place at the First Methodist Church in Downtown Houston.

Drew spent a little time relaxing and just chilling with the guys prior to the ceremony.

Jennifer ABSOLUTELY LOVED the gift she received from Drew - a magazine cover type photo with some appropriate headlines and family tree in the back.

We had a bit of fun doing some different portraits of Jennifer and the girls.

One last joke before walking down the aisle with her dad.

Now, one thing Jennifer and Drew did which I am very grateful for is allocate time for creative portraits between the ceremony and the reception.  This allowed us to spend some time getting some relaxed photos at a couple of locations, including back at the Hilton.

After the portraits at the Hilton, we headed to the reception venue - the historic The Parador in the Museum District.

There, we had some more time for a few more portraits.

The reception got started and let me just say that it was a great party.

…and as if one cake wasn’t enough, the best man was celebrating his birthday!

The first dance is always a great opportunity to catch “the look of love”!

Thank you, Jennifer and Drew, for allowing me to be a part of your wonderful day!
