Hi there! We're Luke and Cat, and we're so happy you're here. We hope you'll stay a while! We’re a husband and wife wedding photographer team based in Houston, Texas. Ranchers-turned-photographers, our world looks like this: a Craftsman-style farmhouse; our newborn, Knox, in our arms; coffee in the kitchen; Edison lights on the back porch; and a pair of English bulldogs at the foot of our bed.

Our Song

Aug 29, 2013 / Our Life
We aren't big dancers, so we didn't have a first dance at our wedding. But if we did, it would have been to "Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante. It is 'our song.' I feel a little bit like a junior high girl whenever I say 'our song,' like I should have a bookcover with "Luke and Cat 4EVER!" written on it in glitter pen.



We've gotten our pictures back from our trip to North Carolina this spring and we have lots of updating to do with them! From new canvases in our home to new pictures on our website, we have our hands full with images we love thanks to our friend and amazing photographer Millie Holloman. Looking forward to sharing more with you!

A Place To Call Home

Aug 28, 2013 / Our Life
Hard to say what makes a house a home, but somehow over the past 8 years of living in our house, I'm finally certain that this little white farmhouse definitely feels like home to me.

We're decorating addicts, and one of our favorite things to do around our house is move things around and make things seem 'new' again. One of our favorite areas in our house recently is our buffet bookcase that sits in our dining room. This bookcase is full of things we love!


The red books are antique 'herd-books' for the American Shorthorn Association. Shorthorns are a breed of cattle, but more importantly to us, it was at a Shorthorn show that Luke and I first met over 10 years ago.

In the antique frame is a picture my great grandmother Catherine Sloan, who I was named after. When my great uncle Knox passed away, he left me this framed photo of her which means the world to me!


A few months ago my grandparents gave me this old bible that they discovered in their bookshelf that also belonged to her. I loved the bible because it was old and worn and had my name on it, but even more fun was the fact that it was full of old papers.


Like this old telegram sent to my grandfather on his birthday from his father.


And this invitation to a fellowship dinner that took place March 10, 1953.


Finally, we have this framed photo of my grandmother Mollie in her rodeo queen days, alongside my Aunt Mae's antique clock. I never met Aunt Mae, but she was a big fan of antiques and we also have a trunk and a dresser in our home from her collection. Back to my grandmother, she was cute then and is still cute now! I want to be her when I grow up!

Fonts for Weddings

Aug 27, 2013 / Weddings
As nerdy as this may sound, typography is a passion of mine. I love fonts and have way too many. It's probably because of my pre-photography career as a graphic designer. I'm signed up for the e-mail list for so many different font foundries, so while some women might anxiously be waiting for sale e-mails from J. Crew or Banana Republic, I'm the one waiting for new font releases.

I wanted to offer some ideas for some font combinations for those DIY types who might want to make signage or other projects for their weddings!


This combo of Minion and Bombshell would be great on an invitation. Minion is a classic serif font that I especially love if styled in small caps. Bombshell is one of my favorite fonts ever because it looks hand-drawn.


The table card features another one of my favorite serif fonts, Warnock, paired with the frilly Affair. Affair is an incredibly diverse font with lots of fun and feminine qualities!


I'm in love with the idea of song request cards. Not only can they look great on the table but your guests can get involved. For this card I chose fonts with a little more personality. Franklin Gothic is one of my go-to sans serif fonts because I think it has spunk. For the script font, I haven't found a 'cheeky' fontI like quite as much as Wisdom Script. It's easy to read but not boring!
If you want to begin your own font-journey, it's easy to get started and find your favorites at MyFonts.com.
