Claira and Family

We had a cool photo session with 10 day old Claira and her family. What a cute baby. We had a good time with all of the different poses and lighting set ups. She slept through a bunch of it but woke up every now and then to let us know what she thought. Check out all of her photos at http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/ThumbPage.aspx?r=1&e=5128286 and our main web site at http://www.jmarkphotography.com/ . So take a look and let us know what you think. You think the family likes Claira just a little bit?

Steven and Family

We had a good portrait session Saturday morning with Steven and his family. We shot a larger group of this fun family a few months ago and had a great time so we were very happy when we got the call to schedule this session. Steven just turned 3, and his Nana was visiting so it was a good time to record this little guy's personality. And as you can see he has plenty of it. Check out these shots and leave us a comment. Also check out our main site http://www.jmarkphotography.com/ We look forward to hearing from you.

Dana and Paul

We were lucky enough to be selected to photograph Dana and Paul's wedding on the University of Texas campus at the Darrell K Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium. It was a really fun and different experience. Everything is bigger in Texas and what could be bigger than getting married at the UT football Stadium? Dana and Paul are both UT graduates where Paul was a member of the UT swim team. The summer of 2009 may go down as one of the hottest on record here in Austin, so the plan to host the ceremony on the field was sidelined. Paul and Dana used the concourse area with the drum Big Bertha as a backdrop. It was an awesome ceremony with a special family blessing. It showed the strength of support and the depth of the families love. The girls were dressed in… what else but orange? The guys in cool linen. We had a blast taking formal pictures on the new turf and all around the stadium. The reception was held in the Centennial room overlooking the 50 yard line. A special cultural dance was preformed by one of Dana’s bridesmaids. A great time was had by all. Here are a few of their photos but you can check out the rest at http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/thumbpage.aspx?e=5080822 and our main web page at http://www.jmarkphotography.com/.

Aida and Bob

Aida and Bob were married August the 8th at St Theresa's Catholic Church in Austin and held their reception at the Marriott in Round Rock. We were the lucky ones that were selected to photograph their event. Aida was escorted down the aisle by her brother as about 100 guests watched. The ceremony lasted about 30 minutes then Aida and Bob were driven to their reception in a limo. The crew at the Marriott did a great job with the reception. Everyone looked they were having a great time even getting into dancing to "YMCA". A group of friends and family decorated the couples room to help make it just that much more special. I have posted a few of their photos here, you can see them all at http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/thumbpage.aspx?e=5045518 and more of our work at http://www.jmarkphotography.com/ . Leave us some comments.

Ashley and Jeff

We met Ashley and Jeff yesterday at Texas State in San Marcos, Texas for their engagement photo session. Pretty appropriate place as they both graduated from there. And, we like it too for all of the background opportunities near the old fish hatchery right there on campus. We will also be shooting their wedding in March at one of our favorite local Round Rock locations - Casa Blanca on Brushy Creek. I am posting a few of my photo picks here but you can check out more at - http://www.photoreflect.com/pr3/thumbpage.aspx?e=5032938 and as always Different stuff at http://www.jmarkphotography.com/ - Leave us a comment and let us know what you think.
