cameron's university of texas at austin graduation announcements

Rawwr! So my good friends Cristina and Sam had their wedding at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, which was such an amazing wedding venue, by the way. Working with them was really special because they're both good friends of my husband and I, and it's been awesome to see them go from 'dating' to 'married' and all the wonderful stages along the way.
