M8 Shots of the week... a preview

I did something completely against my norm this week and actually took an entire day off to myself... Surprising huh (at least to my wife). Jamie Orillion & I had a blast taking off and getting out of town. It was so good to get behind the camera with no real agenda and I am super excited going into the rest of my shoots this week! I will post some more from my day off on Friday, but I couldn't wait to share a couple images. Be sure to check back on Friday for more! Blessings. Jason

Random M8 Shots of the week - a mix of towns

This week seemed to be crazier than most and at the same time I probably had a chance to shoot more for fun than I have in months. A couple of these are from my trip to Miami between my time landing, shooting a wedding, and leaving. The other ones are just a couple from my week. I hope that everyone has a great weekend! Blessings. Jason

Wedding in Miama with Riccis... Pt. 1

This past weekend I headed down to Miami to shoot a wedding with my good friend Riccis Valladares. The bride & groom were an awesome couple and had a beautiful wedding. The day could not have been more gorgeous! It was nice to shoot an entire wedding with my m8 and it definitely got me thinking about using it more for weddings. Thanks to Riccis for having me down and here are just a couple images from the wedding. Blessings. Jason

Leslie & John are Married!

Leslie & John had an amazing wedding this weekend at City Club at River Ranch in Lafayette. It was a beautiful ceremony at dusk (a little rain never hurts). Everyone at the wedding was so awesome and I was so glad that we were able to join them. Melissa with Flowers Etc did a fantastic job with the flowers and decorations. Thanks to Jamie Orillion for giving me a hand on the wedding. Congrats Leslie & John! Blessings. Jason

Rhea & Zak Engagements!

I have known Zak for probably 10 years now so it was surreal thinking that he is now getting married (man I feel old comes to mind :) We had a great time in Ruston shooting their engagements and they had some fantastic locations picked out when I got there. Here are just a couple and I can't wait for their wedding in July. Blessings. Jason
