Amy and Kelly's Wedding Photography - Hotel Galvez, Galveston, Tx

Its always a pleasure and honor to photograph the weddings of those who serves our country, and Amy and Kelly's wedding was no different. The weather down on Galveston Island was awesome! The staff at the Hotel Galvez was awesome! The whole wedding day was just great, and the love between Amy and Kelly was obvious. You really could feel the excitement in the air!

Also want to send out a special shout out to these fine folks that helped made the day special...

Kelly with Eventology Weddings - She really did a great job as the event coordinator. As she always does. I believe she is truly a miracle worker!

Ben with BDimage was rocking out the video!

Then there was Pete with Pete's Mobile DJ Service. As the DJ he really got the party going!

I wish I knew who the florist was, because the flowers were amazing!

I hope y'all enjoy the photos!

Jason

PS. Thank you for the correction Kelly! Oooooops!

Car Fire - League City, Tx

It is not often that I get to play photojournalist in the traditional sense. No matter how many times I see something like this I am amazed at how our modern conveniences can turn tragically against us.

This car fire started around lunch time in the parking lot of the Whataburger in League City just off FM 646 and Interstate 45. According to a witness I spoke with, a man, identified as the driver of the Dodge Durango, was eating his meal in his SUV when smoke starting pouring out of the hood. Shortly, after that 911 was called. No one was injured in the incedent according to League City police.

I was fortune enough to have my gear with me, and was going to my bank when I saw the car fire. There was an explosion of some type as I pulled into the drive way. I also got a pretty interesting shot of the battery exploding as well.

Crystal and Greg's Engagement Photography | Discovery Green Park | Houston, Tx

Recently.... You know I hate starting off blog post with "recently." I need to find a new word. I feel like I am about read a newspaper article. Well, back to the topic... Crystal and Greg's engagement photos.

I got an email from Crystal a while back asking me to photograph her and Greg. With speaking with her she had been looking long and hard for a photographer. I am really grateful she picked me, because their photography session was awesome! I had so much fun with them downtown Houston at Discovery Green Park. The weather was perfect, and they were easy to photograph.

If you like the photos you should venture over to the slideshow.

Enjoy!

The Winner Is... Katy and Bill's Engagement Session - Galveston, Tx

I am not sure where to start. I had so many folks vote, and say such wonderful things. I am feeling kinda mushie (is that a word?).

Katy and Bill were refered to me by another wonderful couple you will be reading about soon. Katy chose me as their based on one photo in the engagement gallery of my website. She just had to have one just like it.

Well, I was a bit nervous, because I never do anything twice. I do not even know how, even if I wanted too. I joke around all the time saying I make it up as I go. That is completely true. I don't even like going to the same spots.

So the first time attempt we went to Discovery Green Park to take photographs. We struck out on that elusive sunset shot she was looking for. The next time we hit the beach. Now, mind you this was shortly after Ike had its way with us down here. Boy am I glad we did. It was amazing!

There were boats were boats should have not been, and the sunset was just stunning! I hope you all enjoy! Katy and Bill are so much fun, and willing to do just about anything I ask. However, their personalities really shined, so I did not have to make to many requests. Stay tuned for their wedding photos!

Enjoy!
