Kegan and Melissa celebrated their wedding at Ma Maison, in the Texas Hill Country.  I met these two beautiful people the day they got engaged.  I was lucky enough to shoot Melissa’s surprise proposal, so I feel like I’ve walked along side these two for a while now.  As far as I can tell, these two are really best friends, and seem to compliment each other so perfectly.  Even though Kegan and Melissa live in Chicago, they wanted to share their day with friends and family down in Texas.  Melissa really fell in love with the southern charm of Ma Maison, and she knew it would be the perfect place to celebrate after their church wedding.  Her bridesmaids were wearing a beautiful Tiffany blue gown, each girl had a unique design.  This also worked beautifully with the blue iron thingy at Ma Masion.   The men were dressed in grey suits, this really paired nicely with the soft color tones of the ladies.  The wedding flowers were soft shades of orange, pink and dusty purple.  The day was full of fun touching moments, like the video message Melissa watched from Kegan.  He prepared a video message to share with Melissa before he gave her a beautiful pearl necklace.  After the wedding, everyone was in good spirits as we drug everyone out in to the Texas heat.  I’m not sure if all of the Illinoisan’s knew how hot it got here in August, but I wanted to make sure they got the full Texas experience.  It was hot and the sun was bright, but we got some great shots out in the wispy grass and trees behind the venue.  All in all, the day was amazing and the people were even better.  I was so honored to be a part of this fun journey.  To see all of Kegan and Melissa’s wedding photos, click HERE.
