Chad and Grace’s engagement session was a beautiful blend of nature and city. We started off on North Blvd and Downtown Houston, where the streets are lined with towering oaks and lush greenery. It felt peaceful, almost like the city had pressed pause for a while. Grace wore a light blue and white floral dress that flowed perfectly as she walked, and Chad kept things classic in a white button-up and black pants. The quiet charm of that setting matched their energy so well—easygoing, connected, and totally in sync.
Outfit choices can shape the entire mood of a session, and these two nailed it. When couples ask what to wear, I always think back to sessions like this one. Grace didn’t look like she was trying to “dress up for photos,” she just looked like herself, elevated slightly for the occasion. That floral dress could have come straight out of her own closet, and because she felt good in it, it showed. Then for the second half, we moved to a rooftop downtown and the vibe shifted. Grace changed into a sleek black dress that felt modern and a little bold, while Chad swapped into a navy button-up that tied everything together. Their looks fit the setting without ever feeling forced.
Up on the rooftop, the city stretched out around them, and everything felt a little more alive. The skyline gave us a clean, bold backdrop, and the contrast between the natural setting earlier and this urban scene made the session feel full and dynamic. Grace and Chad leaned into it effortlessly—one moment sharing a laugh, the next just quietly soaking in the view together. Whether surrounded by trees or standing above the streets of North Blvd and Downtown Houston, they brought their full selves to every frame, and it made the session feel honest, grounded, and completely theirs.
