Houston Baby Photographer: Jocelyn

Joanna — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 13:59:53 +0000

It is always a great honor when past clients refer you to their family and friends. But you want to know what’s better then that? When past wedding clients call you up to photograph their growing family. Thanks to the internet and Facebook, I’m able to stay in contact with my clients easier.

You may remember Jack and Jessica. They are the beautiful cover model of this photo….

And after their beautiful wedding came sweet baby Jocelyn. She is as beautiful as her momma! Here are a few favorites from their session we did in the comfort of their home.

Notice something different….just a sneak peak on the changes JTG STUDIO will be taking in the next couple of months. I’m excited to unveil something that has been unworks for a year.

As sweet as can be, Jennifer and Matthew will be trying the knot in July and I am so excited to document their day at Tad Akers.

We’ll be shooting Jennifer’s bridal session later on this week.

Enjoy my favorites from their engagement session at Discovery Green.

The teaser from last week.

Thank you for spending a wonderful Saturday afternoon with me.

Sun and Love

If you find yourself young (and even young at heart) and in love, I think it would look something like this. One of my favorites from a recent engagement session at Discovery Green. I always find new places to shoot there and the sun is always so kind to come out for me.

Houston Family Photography: The Medina Family

When my sweet friend and client Jennifer told me her and her husband were having a baby, I was thrilled. We have been friends since college and being able to capture all of their most important moments has been such an amazing gift. I’ve photographer their wedding, maternity session, Sergito’s baptism and now his debut as a walking machine. He loves to explore and letting me free at Discovery Green was a blast to photograph and watch.

Thank you Jen and Sergio for welcoming me into your family and allowing me to be so close to Sergito!

Houston Maternity Photographer: The Garza Family Sneak Peak

A photo to melt your heart from this weekend’s maternity session. The rest to come soon. I just couldn’t wait to share.

I hope your Easter was wonderful and you shared the beautiful day with loved ones, I sure did!

Houston Engagement Photography: Christa and Roy

Joanna — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 14:12:57 +0000

Christa and Roy win the award for braving the coldest day of January. Man it was cold. I was wearing my red wool coat with scarves and my dad’s driving mittens that I found in his truck. They kept my fingers warm while I clicked away and took these shoots of the two lovebirds.

They are getting married in March and I’m so excited to shoot their wedding. First wedding of 2010!

Here are a few shots we took in Downtown Houston by Minute Maid Stadium.

I told them to bring it in real nice and tight, it also helped keep them warm.

Christa, you look FIERCE!

One of my favorite from their session. I love their expressions.

Roy is a firefighter and an EMT so we headed back to his station and took a couple of pics there. He represents STATION 9!

This one is so sweet!

Thanks to Christa and Roy for being such troopers in the cold and not complaining. It sure was worth it!

Houston Maternity Photographer: Pedro and Lely

Joanna — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 14:33:03 +0000

Last year, my last session was with Lely and Pedro. I was thrilled to hear that they were coming to Houston for Christmas. I hadn’t seen them since their wedding in November of 2008. I was even more excited because Lely is 7 months pregnant and a maternity shoot was a must. With such beautiful subjects who could resist.

We set out that day to my favorite park in midtown and had a quick session. The sunset was beautiful and it made for glorious photos.

I can’t wait to meet your little bundle of joy.

My favorite from their session.

Happy Friday!

Strike a pose!

Photobooth at weddings has been a trend for a while now and it has caught up in the Houston market. We have started offering this service to our brides and the response has been great.

My style of shooting weddings is more photojournalistic and candid. The photobooth at your wedding reception allows for a more posed shots, things get a little crazy. This is a good opportunity for guest to take a photo with different props. Guest can get creative when it comes to the booth. Instead of going table per table and getting shots of guest, they can step into the photobooth. This allows me to capture the candid moments on the dance floor, while my assistant is capturing the posed photographs of the guest who wouldn’t be in the photographs because they are not in the action. A win, win situation!!

Contact me if you are interested in having a photobooth at your reception.

Here are a few photos from Sory and Oscar’s photobooth at their November wedding. To view their wedding photos click here and here.

Houston Portrait Photography: The Urbina Family

Joanna — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 17:04:44 +0000

I love when my clients call me back after the wedding for more photos, especially when there are little ones involved. I photographed Jaime and Adriana’s wedding in June of 2008 in Monterrey, Mexico. It was a beautiful wedding full of love and laughter. When these two are together you know you’ll be laughing. Not to long after the wedding they found out they were pregnant with this lil guy, Jaime Adrian!!

Thank you again for inviting me to capture your families memories. Best wishes!

This session was done at Baldwin Park in Midtown.

Happy Wednesday!

Houston Engagement Photography: Nellie and Marco

Joanna — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 14:17:56 +0000

Whenever I speak on the phone with Nellie I can’t help but smile or laugh. She always has a smile on her face. So I knew that our session would be one of the most relaxing ones full of smiles and laughter.

I guess she can’t help it, she’s so in love with Marco. I’m sure Marco can’t help it either because he is all smiles around Nellie as well. Such a perfect day with a beautiful couple. The lighting was amazing, I was loving it.

Here are a few of my favorites from our session that took place in a park in Midtown.

You’re beautiful Nellie!
