Houston Session



Here, Liam is having fun looking for Max the cat at their front window - thanks to Max for all his help.
Scott Gensch coined the tag "Life is Grand" for Carpe Vita Photography and it is so totally true as is evident by their many blessings.
In a quiet moment, Liam was still for a few moments and we were able to document some of cuddling with his dad. They grow up sooooo fast, so we have to slow down time whenever we can.
What a patient and loving cat Max is. This photo shows off Liam's curls soon to be trimmed off.Liam sees that the family dogs have made their way into the living room and wants to join in on the fun.
The Gensches are planning a trip back to Dallas, this fall and we look forward to photographing them again.

Brook Hollow Golf Club is Blooming



Junior utilized BBJ Linens - how can you not love this gorgeous pattern and the use of orange to compliment the mossy greens?
This above photo shows off Absolute Lighting's contribution - we love how they lit the chandelier too.
If you haven't heard about the wonders the Brook Hollow's creative kitchen artistes can do with ice, here's a little taste. Every year they amaze us.
And finally the food - talk about mouth-watering! Always a favorite, that we heard several of the past presidents raving about and making plans to indulge in, are the lambchops with their famous mint jelly.
Lobster Macaroni and Cheese - yummmmmmmmmmm.
And then there was the dessert table and I haven't mentioned the incredible acoustics provided by Carlos Guedes and his creative trio!

Zimmer-Sewell Reception

Steve and Kim Cooley of Carpe Vita Photography were retained by BBJ to document all their uses of their beautiful linens. As you will see in the following photos, no one should ever want to use a standard issued white/creme table cloth again and BBJ offers top-notch cloths and incredibly variety.
With an expected 700 plus guests, five different areas with five different linen/floral/food themes all from a complimentary color pallet were arranged to channel the guests and bridal party thru a luxurious experience sure to be remembered by all. And FYI, this was one of three wedding receptions the Renaissance Worthington was hosting that evening.
As guests arrived to white-gloved valet attendants, they were ushered up the escalators through this stunning fragrant canopy which set the scene for what was to come. As we were not involved with the wedding portion of the celebration, we can only imagine the grandeur of the church florals and decor.
