A Dreamy Sunset Session at Mercer Botanic Gardens
We had the best time capturing this dreamy sunset bridal session at Mercer Botanic Gardens—a truly magical place tucked away in Humble, just outside of Houston. If you’re looking for a stunning location filled with natural beauty and peaceful charm for your bridal portraits, this spot is a hidden gem. As the sun dipped lower in the sky, we wandered through the gardens, surrounded by vibrant flowers, lush greenery, and winding stone paths that made every frame feel like it came straight out of a fairytale. Mercer Botanic Gardens has such a calming, romantic energy—fountains, statues, little bridges, and even a lake to reflect that golden hour glow. The soft evening light gave the entire session a warm, timeless feel. The bride looked absolutely radiant, and the natural setting created such a lovely contrast to her dress. We stopped for portraits among blooming flowers, by the water, and in those quiet little corners of the garden that seem made for moments like this. One of the best things about shooting at Mercer Botanic Gardens is how many different looks you can get in one location—lush foliage one moment, wide-open spaces the next. It’s the perfect place for any bride who loves nature, color, and a little bit of whimsy.
