Hazel West Photography

Hello, and welcome to our blog! We, Gisele and Kristin, are Texas wedding and portrait photographers based in Houston. After our initial meeting all the way back in kindergarten, we have been inseparable since. We discovered photography together in high school yearbook, and we continued to pursue it throughout college and after, eventually realizing that our onetime hobby had blossomed into a career. We consider it a privilege to capture the moments, events, loved ones, and memories in people’s lives, as we know that the photographs we give you will tell invaluable stories to your family for years to come. From weddings, to babies, to family portraits, and pets, we love what we do - and you can see that in our work!

      We are members of Professional Photographers of America, which you can find at www.ppa.com.  We use the highest quality professional equipment, and our style is modern, simple, beautiful, and timeless. The secret to our work is our own practiced blend of photojournalism, art, and a way with people. Contact us today at info@hazelwestphotography.com, and thanks for checking out our site!

A Summer Birthday

Of all my beautiful childhood memories, those of summertime are perhaps the loveliest. Here are some photos from a summer birthday party containing all the necessary ingredients: bubbles, pastel tissue wrap, caterpillars, wet grass, and a loving family.

“Summer afternoon — summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.” – Henry James

Kristin and Will – the Engagement!

We were fortunate enough to get to shoot Kristin and Will’s engagement session in Austin, specifically at Laguna Gloria and the Capitol building. We wish we could do this more often! Austin is truly beautiful, and we love exploring new locations. Kristin and Will made the session so much fun – they were so relaxed together, and they obliged us by trying out all of our crazy ideas. It was worth it, as the resulting photographs are just gorgoues (in my opinion!) Enjoy!
