THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! MARK ERIC

in

I just wanted to throw up a quick post to say thanks so much to Mark Eric for coming down to help me shoot this weekend. As may know I was out with the flu so this was really a big help for me. Not is Mark a great friend but also a fantastic photographer (check out his website at http://markeric.net). Thanks again to Mark for coming down and I hope that I can return the favor some time soon. Blessings. Jason

Wade Landry Santangelo.

in , , , ,

I had the awesome opportunity today to join Christy & Clint today on one of the best days of their life, the birth of their first child (I was there for the other one... you may remember their beautiful wedding on the beach). I was so honored to be with them and their families for the amazing event. Christy ended up having to have a c-section and they picked me to go in alone with Clint (what an honor!). I tried to shoot everything leading up to the actual birth with my M8 and took out the Nikon when things started moving fast. It was really an amazing day and I wanted to share a few. A quick story before the images... When I first got to the hostpital they weren't sure what the name of their boy would be so they had a chart with votes up in the room. Christy had left it up to Clint on what his name would be and all the way until they walked into the deliver room he still had not told anyone. One of my favorite images was when the nurse asked Clint what his name would be right before the birth and he said, "His name is Wade Landry Santangelo." Christy turned and looked at him at the same time and I snaped an image quickly. This is the first image of many....

Blessings. Jason

Rodney - A story of hope

in ,

I got a chance to travel with my friend Loren down to the Home of Grace this past week and hear Rodney's story. Rodney met up with Loren right after hurricane Gustav and in the last 4 months has had his world turned upside down. He had an amazing story of hope and I can't wait to be able to share the rest of what is going on in his life. We did some audio/video interviews along with the still images and I am really looking forward to seeing everything come together. Here are just a couple of the still images from the day. Blessings.

Katie & Stephen are Engaged!

A few months ago I got a call from Stephen saying that he was planning out how he was going to propose to his girlfriend Katie. Well today was the day and the entire shoot was a blast, especially seeing the look on Katie's face when he pulled out the ring. Here are just a couple, and I will post some more from the rest of their session soon. Congrats to Katie & Stephen! Blessings. Jason
