I left Texas on Sunday and headed west to California with my family. I got a chance to attend a really great workshop (The Style Lab) and take the family to our first trip to Disneyland. I wanted to post some sneak peeks of what I've been up to since before I left for California! As you can see, with all the sneak peeks I've been posting, I got a lot of blogging to catch up on!
So here you go...a wedding, an engagement, a bridal session, and a sneak peek image from the workshop!
Here's a picture that Edmond took of Madeline and I at Disneyland. We were riding the carousel at Fantasyland.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there! Here's an image of my mother and Madeline from a family party. Gosh I love them so much! My mom is one of the strongest, bravest, most generous women I know. I know for a fact that I wouldn't be the woman or mother I am today without her influence. My mom has this thing about her that makes you either love her a lot, or love her a little less (just a little)...she has no filter. Literally! Sometimes I think it just comes with the territory of being Filipino. LOL! She says what's on her mind which can crack you up one moment and make you feel like dirt the next. But you know, I wouldn't change a thing about her!
When Madeline was born, I said to my mother, "Now I know how much you love me, Mom." I've always known my mom loves me, but I never understood how powerful that love was until I became a mother myself. So here I am, celebrating my first mother's day. It's a crazy feeling being a mom. You go from feeling so happy that you have this precious life you're responsible for, to feeling terrified that you have this precious life you're responsible for! And it's life. It's my life. Being Mommy to my Maddy. I must have done something right in a past life to deserve such a blessing :)
Happy Mother's Day!

So if you aren't doing anything on Wednesday, May 26, between the hours of 6PM and 9PM, I would absolutely, totally, completely, and utterly be delighted if you would join me, along with the ladies of TwoBeWed, Casa de Camera and Studio B Images, for our open house party! Everyone is welcome :)
It was almost three years ago that I joined with TwoBeWed. I loved the idea of having a comfortable and peaceful environment, totally dedicated to weddings, where I could meet with my clients. The best part, we're like a little family at our new house. We're this great community of women, running our own businesses, taking care of our families, and still making time to enjoy life :) It was sad to leave our old location, but as soon as I saw our new place, I knew we were home! It's our little house in the city and we'd LOVE for you to drop by :)
The past week Madeline has been going through her first cold and cough. It's so hard to watch your baby when she's feeling miserable. At her age, you can't give her any medicine (although with all the medicine recalls I don't know if I'd want to anyway). All you can do is keep baby comfortable and just ride it out. Here she is, staring up at me. When she looks at me like this, I always want to sweep her up into my arms and hug her, kiss her cheeks, and smell her face!

I don't think that there's really one wedding season in Houston. Sometimes the whole year feels like one big wedding season. I'll say that it's definitely spring wedding season and summer's season is just around the corner! I've been super busy and for those of you who take the time to follow my blog, first I'd like to say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Second, instead of posting an entire event right now (because it's about 3AM and I just finished working on some stuff) I thought I'd put together a handful of sneak peeks.
The past month or two, I've had something of everything on my calendar lately - weddings, babies, boudoir, bridals. Here's just a sprinkling of some Love Lee Photography. Enjoy :)
There's a Filipino tradition (at least in my Filipino family) to have a roasted pig at extra special family occasions. Madeline's baptism counted as one of them. My brothers and I all have pictures just like this one from when we were babies. I wish I had them with me so I could post them! Here's Maddy's first "lechon" picture for our family collection.

Kumusta ka! I didn't know you were filipino, my little bro lived in the Philippines for a few years and thats all the Tagalog I picked up from his letters. haha. Love Lee pictures, and that is one cute picture of your baby girl!

I know my friends and family that see this are thinking, "Has it been 4 years?" Yes, it has. Four years ago today I married the love of my life, Edmond. We were both the first children of our parents to get married, so it was a big deal. In other words, GINORMOUS Asian wedding. A lot of planning went into it. Just like many brides, I spent countless hours deciding on details, meeting vendors, shopping for THE dress, surfing websites, even making a trip to the Philippines with my mom for wedding stuff. My mother-in-law also went to China for even more wedding stuff!
I remember immediately after the ceremony, Edmond and I walked up the aisle and went into a small room, just the two of us. No wedding party, no family, no photographers, no videographers, no one. Just us. We looked at each other and I said, "husband." He said, "wife." Those first few moments as husband and wife are one of the most precious and important memories of my life. After that, it seemed like an endless night of celebrating and partying that went by like a blur!
Anyway, I can go on and on about my wedding, because that's what past, present, and future brides do! LOL! I just want to take a moment to tell you, Edmond, that I love you. I love our baby. I love the life we've built together. Happy Anniversary!
And here we are now...The Lee's :)
