March 20, 2009: Bethany's Bridal Shoot.

Hey guys,

This is Bethany. She's pretty much the nicest person on the planet. She's not only a classmate with me at the pharmacy school, but also a good friend now! We took her bridal portraits at the awesome looking Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort in San Antonio, Texas. She wanted the rustic country theme and this place delivered! It was a beautiful day to get some bridals done. It wasn't too hot, not too cold, the air was dry since it was San Antonio. It just could NOT be any more perfect. The lady that showed us around the resort gave us some issues over the phone, but turned out to be a really nice lady. I'd really like to thank Joseph and Tracy for making the trek out to San Antonio and surprising us to lend a helping hand. They also stayed out there for HOURS helping us. I'd like to thank Bethany for putting up with all our posing directions and I'd like to thank Josephine for being next to me the whole time!




























Some of the outtakes! Yes, we were there for HOURS and Joseph and Tracy brought cookies and bottled water! THANKS GUYS!

March 10, 2009: Quyen's Shoot.

This started out as an interesting little shoot that went fantastic. Anthony gave me a call asking if I could help him out with a shoot and of course I said yes because Anthony's awesome like that. Well we met up Quyen at Hermann Park and decided to use a different area of it to make it look like a completely different shoot than the other ones. I think we did a fantastic job and I'd like to thank Anthony and Joseph for all their help and support. Quyen needed these shots for her portfolio as she is an aspiring model and Anthony needed these shots since he's an aspiring photographer! Ahh, yet another symbiotic relationship and I was glad to assist. Here's a little video I put together with the help of Joseph's footage. We hope you guys enjoy it.

March 7, 2009: Maia + Mark's Wedding.

Thanks to Costas from www.digitalremix.net we were given the amazing opportunity to assist him in shooting this beautiful wedding. Maia and Mark are such a lively couple who always seem to be laughing and cracking jokes. Their wedding was a small quaint ceremony held at Vargos here in Houston, Tx. A lot of thanks to the JHP crew, Josephine, Joseph and Tracy for their time and efforts out there. It was such a gorgeous day to be married outdoors! Here are some of the highlights from it. The JHP version of the album can be found here:

So we received a call from a frantic friend in need of some quick snapshots to use as headshots for a modeling audition. She is a good friend of mine from Pharmacy school so I thought it would be a nice to help her out. As it turns out, she got the part and is now working for a local modeling agency in San Antonio, Texas! Congratulations, A'ja! Big huge thanks to Josephine and Joseph for making the trip to help with the shoot. Here are some of the shots that we enjoyed the most.

February 21, 2009: The Khalic Family.

It was a beautiful warm winter day as we sought out to the Japanese Tea Garden in San Antonio, Tx. The wind was cool, the air was dry, it was a perfect day for a family shoot. The Khalic family warmed up to us quickly and were able to loosen up for the shoot. They were so pleasant and fun to work with. After the shoot was over, we shot Kendra's graduation portraits. The Japenese Tea Garden was busy with other photographers and just people taking pictures. It was so lively and such a pretty place to work at.

Special thanks to Josephine, Lee and Will for making the shoot a smooth and smooth experience. Here are a few shots from the shoot.

February 21, 2009: Kendra's Graduation Shoot.

We'd like for you all to meet Kendra. She's a graduating senior from Schulenburg High School Class of 2009! We took her senior portraits as well as her family portraits at the San Antonio, Texas Japanese Sunken Gardens. This is a beautiful little park located near the San Antonio Zoo. We all had a blast and Kendra was so fun and easy to work with. This shoot really brought me back to my graduation days since my high school has the same colors! Here's a few that we'd really like to share:

February 7, 2009: The Guajardo Family Shoot.

This is the Guajardo Family. They are a lovely and lively family who just wanted to get together and have some fun with a few photographers. The weather was good to us as well as Hermann Park. Josephine and Tracy were also a great help during this shoot as well. I'd like to thank Anthony Trang for coming out and giving us a hand also... Kids can be a HANDFUL but these kids were just so much fun. Yes, it's three boys and one little girl. The boys are just so protective of her it is really cute and funny! These are a few I thought turned out really nice.
