November 26, 2010: Tina + Tim Engagement Portraits.

What a chilly day in Houston this weekend but anything beats our blistering heat that we always get. It was a great day for a shoot! Tina and Tim were just so charasmatic that they made shooting so easy and fun. Just reacting with one another and going along with the photos made getting the great shot seem like it was a walk in the park. Which it was since these were taken at Discovery Green.

October 3, 2010: Joy Bridal Portraits.

This is our beautiful bride Joy! Things were getting really hot outside, so we pulled some strings to get us back into the mosaic to shoot. This high rise is simply gorgeous to shoot in and it helps that it's a/c controlled and about 14 stories up so there is a nice breeze outside no matter how hot it is.

October 3rd, 2010: Pastor Kevin.

This is Pastor Kevin. He has an amazing story and an even greater message. Pastor Kevin called me up and asked about portraits and of course I obliged with no questions asked. He proceeded to tell me that he needed these portraits for a book cover. Things got interesting. His book can be ordered below!

June 9, 2010: Jennifer + Mario's Engagement Portraits.

Thanks to Jennifer and Mario so much for sending us out to this great location to take their engagement pictures. They asked if we could shoot them down in the friendswood/pearland area and the first thought that came to my head was we were going to some community park. I was so far from being wrong. This place was so amazing!

May 12, 2010: Lan's Graduation.

So not too long after our trip to Dallas, we caught a ride to LA! Our good friend Lan got us an all expenses paid trip to LA... Almost all expenses paid. Josephine had to shop of course! Other than getting in a little trouble for taking some pictures at disney land that I wasn't supposed to take, it was such an incredibly fun trip! I'd gladly shoot for free to go to LA again! Thanks so much Lan and Braeden!

I chose this shot because I think it pretty much represents our entire trip in a nutshell... fun in the sun in CALI!

May 02, 2010: Minu and Anthony's Engagement Portraits.

So after our semi-long wedding on Saturday May 1st, 2010, we went straight to Dallas to start shooting Minu and Anthony's engagement portraits. We went a little early so we can scout out some locations. Minu had a few places in mind which definitely helped us since we haven't shot much in Dallas. We also came across some amazing bluebonnet fields about an hour south of Dallas that we just simply had to take them to. Special thanks to Mike from www.teamshiftpoint.com as always for helping out with the video and Josephine for all her help with photos! Hope you guys enjoy the photos and video!

May 01, 2010: Melissa and Khawer's Wedding.

April was a quiet month for us with a few gigs here and there. We shot a School Opera for the Post Oak School however, we aren't allowed to post any videos or pictures from it anywhere. So here is our next event in May. Melissa and Khawer's wedding. This was a traditional Ceremony that was also very modern. It was definitely interesting to see these two cultures together. We worked with a great DJ as well, www.musicbymitch.net. Special thanks to Mike from www.teamshiftpoint.com and Danh Phan as always for helping out with the video and to Josephine and Harrison with their help in the photos Congratulations to this lovely couple and we hope you enjoy the weather in Dallas!

March 27, 2010: Melissa and Khawer's Engagement Portraits.

Who would've thought that Sugarland Town Center could look this good in photos? Well I'm sure a lot of you reading this knew that but I'm not from that area and it definitely looks great. Thanks a lot to Melissa and Khawer for the suggestion for shooting out there. It's always nice to have brides that know exactly what they want. I chose this photo because I feel that it shows off the Sugarland Towncenter that doesn't make it look like other towncenters. Special thanks to Josephine for all her help on the shoot and to Mike for his help on video as always!

March 20, 2010: Elizabeth and Loc's WEdding.

The clouds covered the cold Houston sky as trays covered in red silk fabric traveled in lines carried by beloved family members on Loc's side of the wedding. The morning breeze was chilly. After the wedding ceremony, we tried to go over to Costas' beautiful church to try to find a warm place to shoot indoors but we just had no place to go but inside the Galleria. It was simply too cold to work outside. Today we shot both video and photo for Elizabeth and Loc so we called our friend Costas from www.photographybycostas.com who does amazing photography work. We needed help on the photography end. Also special thanks to Danh from www.danhphan.com and Mike from www.teamshiftpoint.com for all their help on shooting.

March 18, 2010: Tx2k10 Coverage.

This time of year, it's generally not very cold. However, this particular year's winter lingered around a little longer than usual. This was great news for Tx2k10 which is an annual meeting of the greatest performance shops and their cars around the Nation. They converge here in Houston, Tx for a 4 day event from Thursday to Sunday. The events include a Track Race Day, Dyno Day, Show and Shine Car Show and a Test and Tune Drag Day. This is our video coverage from the event this year. This was our first time with actual coverage. Enjoy!

March 12, 2010: Elizabeth and Loc's Engagement photos.

Elizabeth and Loc are some of the smartest people I know. They're wedding is going to run real smooth, she just has everything planned out so well! We took these photos before their wedding date. It's not uncommon now for the Groom to see the bride in her wedding dress before the big day.

January 24, 2010: Christine's Cheer Competition.

Some good friends of ours asked us to cover their daughter's Cheer Power competition. Of course we're good friends with her too so we were more than happy to get together a few photos for them! We didn't have media passes or anything and we barely made her routine. So we're glad we were able to get these snaps! Congrats to Christine!

January 23, 2010: Farilyn and Matt's Wedding.

Now this was definitely a crash coarse! I got a call from Matt sometime in mid January and we shot his engagement portraits, her bridal portraits and got everything ready just before his wedding all in one week. Josephine and I were only guests at his wedding, but I couldn't help but to take some photos of my own for the blog. Enjoy!

JHP.

January 20, 2010: Farilyn's Bridal Portraits.

We chose an interesting location for Farilyn's Bridal portraits but they came out pretty well in my opinion. We don't go here often but we should start going here more. Let's see if anyone can guess where this is! Great job to Farilyn for toughing it out in the rough weather! And a lot of thanks to Josephine as always for helping out on the shoot!

January 19, 2010: Farilyn and Matt's Engagement Portraits.

We went and took Matt and Farilyn's engagement portaits near Wortham Center. It was a cool January day in Houston during this shoot which definitely helped the mood and atmosphere. It was just such a great day outside.

January 17, 2010: Audrey and Nym's Engagement/Bridal Portraits.

Audrey and Nym... what else can I say. What a fantastic couple. They are so extremely cute together but not in a extreme lovey dovey way. It's just hard to explain. You really just have to watch the video...

January 02, 2010: Duyen and Dat's Engagement Ceremony.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Duyen and Dat were engaged today. This was their engagement ceremony. The Vietnamese Culture has a tradition where the groom's family travels to the bride's family bearing gifts and offerings to the Bride's family in hopes that they will accept the Groom's offerings and accept his hand in marriage. This is only tradition of course since these two knew long before this ceremony took place that they would be getting engaged. It's sort of like a miniature wedding... A preview of things to come when the real wedding comes along.
