Jaime & Derek

The afternoon of Jaime’s session, it was gorgeous!  The sun was just perfect & it finally set in:  It’s fall!!!  My FAVORITE time of the year!  The sun is perfect, warm, & cozy, with just enough chill at night to snuggle up in a good blanket, the humidity hides away for a little while, & cute couples come to me for their pictures!   )

Jaime has already been the coolest chick, with Derek being such a great guy, putting up with all of my crazy ideas.  (Thanks again, Derek!)  I finally got to meet these two for the first time the day of their session.  Jaime was cool enough to reserve her date & book me right over the phone & through the site! 

Congrats, you two!  I can’t wait for your AMAZING Jasper wedding, coming in June! 

P.S.- Your gallery is up, too!  Email or call with any questions.    :)

I noticed Jaime’s new Nano in her car & she showed me the sweet detail Derek added when he gave it to her a few months ago. 

Coming soon…

SOOO much happening, not NEAR enough time!

To update some of my patient bloggers, here’s what coming soon here at the blog:

- Another post (or two?) of Hydee & Ryan’s big day

- A sneak peek at some of Jaime & Derek’s awesome engagements

- Latosha’s bridal session

- (Would LOVE to go back & post more from Santana’s bridal session that was such a great success & tons of fun – as always!)

- More precious shots of little Wyatt

- A quick introduction of my “new girl”, Kristan, who started this past Monday!

- At least one image of the new gallery wall completed.  (Only two hangings away from completion!)

- (Hopefully) a little bit from our vacation, which was really great!  Slow paced, computer & internet free (at Adam’s request), and just what I had needed. 

- Future posts to stay tuned for?  TONS!  With sessions & working virtually 7 days a week right now, lots is to come, including some children, engagement, wedding, & more!

Album Assembly Update

For visual strength (lol), I thought I’d add two detail images of some of the ultra-awesome albums available here at LJP.  Feel free to set up a consultation if you’d like to drool over these babies in person…!   :OP

Current albums in progress (ready for approval & assembly within the next 3 weeks):

- Amanda Keating

- Alonna Ardoin

- Lindsey Durio

- Erika Carlisle

To start on soon:  Keisha Barnett

Album waiting to come in:  (ANY day now..!)  Stacey Guilbeaux   In & delivered! 

Album delivered this past Monday:  Misty LeBlanc

I’m still in awe evertime I open the packaging when one of our creations comes in.  From the mind set I’m on the wedding day, all the way through all of the editing, post-processing, compiling, organizing & planning, until I deliver the final product, it’s just so cool to create something so custom & unique – from start to finish!  Every single little masterpeice was created with the entire day & couple in mind. 

I would like to give a quick shot out & a big THANK YOU to all of my girls for being patient with me & these album assemblies.  They ARE amazing & a big part of that, in my opinion, is contributed to the huge amount of time & devotion that I put towards them. 

Happy Thursday!

Hydee & Ryan

While working on getting these babies up, I’m finding many many favorites!  These are only from the first half of the prep shots & I’m filling up a blogpost!  Argg! 

Hydee & Ryan’s wedding was full of details & special moments.  The customs & traditions of a Jewish wedding are just amazing.  I don’t think I’ve ever devoted more time & energy towards learning so much about a wedding than this one.  I think this was mainly because I became so intrigued with the bits & peices Hydee had told me throughout the past year in preparation!

Little update (until more previews come up here on the blog!):

Hydee & Ryan’s wedding gallery will be up on Sunday!  Until then, check back here for more previews to come!  If you need the password, contact the B&G.  :O)

Hydee & Ryan’s gallery update:  The entire gallery launched late Sunday night & all are up!  Kagan/Desadier family & friends:  Thank you ALL for such sweet comments & emails!  Your kind words have just made my week!    Email with any questions!  (Email located after login with gallery.)

Can you tell I had fun with the rings?!

Avid longhorns fan… the groom’s cufflinks.

Hydee & Ryan chose to see each other before the wedding, which has always been one of the most tearful, special, & intimate moments I’ve witnessed.

I LOVE this picture because the wine table was handmade by Hydee’s father just for their wedding.  With this image of Ryan’s father pouring the couples’ glasses of wine in preparation for the ceremony, it’s clear how close & beautifully supportive & loving both parents were.

Preview of the new wall!

I knew I was forgetting a big “something” when I was listing some of the crazy, yet exciting things that are coming into play right now.  And this is one big one!

The gallery wall here at the studio is having a big face lift, with tons of new images coming in!  Here is just one of the many that you will all see going up.  The rest are coming in this week & the “wall project” will be completed shortly!
