Helena and Derek chose to do their downtown Houston engagement photos in the most stunning venue! Needless to say, they created the perfect "old money" style, vintage engagement session. Helena and Derek seriously rocked this session. Their love was absolutely evident and the images we created were some of my all time favorite photos.

what clients are saying

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Alecca– she was truly my saving grace on the most important day of my life. From the moment she arrived, she wasn’t just there to take pictures – she became my go-to person, my calm in the chaos, and someone who knew exactly what I needed, often before I even said a word.

what clients are saying

"From start to finish, Alecca went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. By the end of the night, she didn’t just feel like our photographer—she felt like our best friend."

what clients are saying

If Alecca isn’t available for your wedding date… change your date. That’s how strongly I feel about her and the work she does. From the very beginning, Alecca was the epitome of professionalism — prompt, prepared, and so easy to communicate with. I never felt embarrassed asking questions, and she always went above and beyond. Her turnaround time was honestly unreal, and the quality of her work speaks for itself — it’s unmatched.

what clients are saying

As someone who considers themselves a type-A person, I had full confidence we would stay on schedule thanks to Alecca. Because of her, I was able to focus on enjoying the day and being present knowing that she was keeping us moving. We’re in love with our pictures and would highly recommend!!
