Out for the rest of the week...

I just wanted to throw up a quick post that I will be out for the rest of the week. Also we had major computer hardware problems for the past 2 weeks so sorry for any delay in email/processing and I will get back to things as soon as I am back in. Here is an image that I really like from a recent wedding that I will be putting some images up from soon...

Baby Aiden

One of my favorite parts about being the photographer is not so much about being behind the camera, but rather being able to be a part of someones life and story. I have been extremely blessed to be good friends with Corine & Beebe Tran in New Orleans, and they have allowed me not only into their home, but also into their story. They have come to be like my extended family in New Orleans... The first shot below was actually a shot that I had in mind to do for the birth of their first child, but just never worked out. Just about a month ago Beebe actually got another tattoo that represents himself, Corine, their two kids, and his brother Mike who passed away this June. For me the shot represents their beautiful story that they have allowed me to be a part of...

I had the opportunity to be with Corine & Beebe Tran this past week for the birth of their second son. I was honored that they would ask me to photograph the birth and just wanted to share a few. Have a great weekend!

Grand Opening!

We had a blast night at the grand opening for our new office. It was an amazing intimate event and thanks so much to everyone who came out. Melissa from Flowers Etc. did a beautiful job with the flowers and Brian with Imonelli prepared some awesome food. If you are planning a wedding they are definitely the people to trust! The office looks fantastic and a big thanks to Tim Walker for working so hard on the space for us! He is the one who did all of the work on the space and made sure to carry out our vision in every detail.

Thanks as well to Kat for helping us get everything together, as well as Daniel & Val my new office mates (I will include both of their websites below). I can't wait to see what the next couple years has in store for all of us!

Here is just a preview (the video may take a couple minutes to load). Also the first couple images will be some before images so you can get an idea of where we have come from :)

Thanks so much to everyone who has allowed me to make a living doing what I love.

Blessings. Jason
