Bright and Airy Bridal Session at Ashton Gardens West

Allison’s bridal session at Ashton Gardens West featured endless natural light! We spent the majority of the session inside the venue’s windowed chapel. As a result, the most stunning portraits rewarded us! In addition, we snapped a few shots in the nearby gardens. Although both locations were gorgeous, neither could upstage our breathtaking bride as she smiled and posed.

Bridal Session in the Chapel at Ashton Gardens West

Truly, Allison could not have chosen a more beautiful Houston venue for her bridal portraits. The chapel at Ashton Gardens West is a picturesque ceremony location. Inside, it is complete with cream-colored walls, exposed wooden beams, and floor-to-ceiling windows that allow sunlight to spill into the space. Outside the chapel, paved paths lead you to a shaded pavilion lined with columns for a bit of Grecian flair. What’s more, the European-style landscaping ensures no shortage of locations for brides and couples to be photographed. Located just a few miles west of downtown, Ashton Gardens West is an ideal venue for Houston couples who crave a combination of elegance and natural beauty.

Speaking of natural beauty, Allison positively shone during her portrait session. She did not stop beaming from the moment the session began! Her hair and makeup, done by Glaiza Cathe Artistry, complemented and did not obscure her features. And her long-sleeved gown of lace fit her like a glove. At the back, a cathedral train made a dramatic addition to her portraits. It was our favorite part of the gown!
