Leslie and Aaron Heafner Wedding at St. Paul’s UMC and Petroleum Club of Houston

by Steve Lee· July 16, 2016· in Blooming Gallery, St. Paul's United Methodist Church, The Petroleum Club of Houston, Vendors, Weddings by Debbie· 0 comments

Leslie and Aaron’s wedding day started at the Hotel Zaza where Leslie and her bridesmaids got their hair and make-up done by one of the best in the industry, Nikki Bartlett and her team. I met up with Aaron and his groomsmen at St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, where his best man and mother helped by putting the final touches for the big day. I also met Angela Nix, the wedding planner, who was easy and a pleasure to work with all night. The ladies arrived at the church shortly after and Leslie put on her beautiful dress from Weddings by Debbie. The bridesmaids wore different style and color bridesmaid dresses, a trend that I really like. The ceremony was beautiful as St. Paul’s is one of the most iconic churches in Houston. After the ceremony, we headed to the Petroleum Club for the reception. The party started as the guests watched the amazing sunset from the 39th floor view. Damon from PRP Entertainment took over. He promised that this reception would be like no other and he was right! The guests danced non-stop all evening until Leslie and Aaron’s grand exit with flower petals. Leslie and Aaron, have a […]

Katie and Brad Hartz Wedding at McGovern Centennial Gardens at Hermann Park

This has been a crazy week of rain and flooding in the Houston area. But the weather cleared up just in time for Katie and Brad’s big day at the McGovern Centennial Gardens at Hermann Park. The day started at Hotel Zaza where they got ready for their wedding. After getting a few photos, we headed to the gardens for a beautiful outdoor ceremony. As a graduate of UH College of Architecture, I have admired the modern design of Peter Bohlin of the Cherie Flores Pavilion since it opened in 2015. The clean architectural lines, combined with a theme garden rooms, and the 30 foot Garden Mount make it one of the most unique wedding venues in Houston. I was able to get some great portraits of the couple around the gardens after the ceremony. Katie and Brad shared their first dance and later dueled in the traditional fight songs of Texas A&M and University of Texas! After cutting the cake, they mingled with friends and guests both in and outside of the pavilion and enjoyed the pleasantly cool evening weather. For their grand exit, guests lined up with glow sticks to send them off for the night. Wedding Coordinator: Bella Luna | Hair and Makeup: […]

Jody & Sae Lee Wedding at Moffitt Oaks

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 […]
