Brazos Bend Vow Renewal | Jessica + Clayton

Kate, of Kate Elizabeth Photography, had a vision of doing a vow renewal under the ancient oaks at Brazos Bend State Park right outside of Houston. The state park is over 4800 acres and is home to some of the oldest oak trees in the state of Texas as well as many species of animals. It’s a nature lover’s paradise and the perfect setting for our Vow Renewal.Spring Vow RenewalBeing a huge fan of the great outdoors myself, I was all in when Kate commissioned me to be a part of such a unique photoshoot.Spring Vow RenewalI drew my inspiration from the oaks with their romantic spanish moss blowing in the breeze. Instantly the color palette of dusty blues, dove grey, antique white with touches of gold came to mind.

College Park Flowers immediately came to mind. They did a tremendous job of combining spanish moss, and ivy with the sturdiness of air plants to perfectly compliment the pillars of a marriage – stability and romance.

It was obvious that their marriage is just as strong as the oaks that surrounded them. Jessica and Clayton, thank you so much for participating in this special shoot and I wish you many more years of marital bliss.
