I was very fortunate to photograph this beautiful couple’s sweet wedding in Brenham, TX. Both J+E’s family are from Houston but Brenham has always been their go to place to get away from the busy city life. The wedding ceremony took place at their family ranch in Brenham. The story behind of how I was hired by the mom of the bride: the bride’s mom used to be a commercial photographer so she’s quite picky on who she would pick for her daughter’s wedding. I was fortunate enough to receive her inquiry, we set up a meeting and she believes in my vision and my core values when it comes to wedding photography. She wrote me a lovely review on google and it was a great motivation for me to continue my work as a wedding photographer.
Here is what she wrote:
“I have done commercial photography for decades so I looked long and hard for the right photographer for my daughter’s wedding. A good number of wedding photographers will set their cameras on auto and then use heavy filters (after the fact) to cover up their lack of skill. This type of photography will not stand the test of time. Composition and technical skill matter. Often overlooked is the ability of the photographer to capture the essence and emotions of the day. This is almost an intangible skill but it’s so obvious at the same time. Without it, photos can feel lifeless even if they look technically perfect. Khanh does this better than anyone. I think I looked at every photographer in Houston and I didn’t find another photographer that even came close to his talent in this area. If you choose Khanh, when you look back at your photos in 20 years, you are going to remember how you FELT on your wedding day. After choosing him for my daughter’s wedding, I learned why he’s so good at this. He’s the sweetest person and he really connected with all of us. That shows in his work. He is a master at capturing feelings because he truly opens up and he understands those feelings himself. He’s just the sweetest most flexible guy. He truly loves what he does and becomes a part of the experience. I believe your heart has to really be connected to master this skill. I would recommend Khanh to anyone who prioritizes capturing the emotions of your wedding day. If you choose him, you will also be sharing your day with someone who is kind and caring. That actually matters more than you think! Many thanks to Khanh for his wonderful work and best wishes to you in your search and wedding journey! ”
