Meet Class of 2012 senior Caleb. He is graduating from Eustace High School this year. He has a true talent for music and art so I encouraged him to incorporate these talents into his photo shoot. His portrait session took place in our photography studio and at Don’s Bug Barn in Athens Texas.

A Special Valentine’s Day Post – Celebrating Love at any Age!

jamyeper — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 06:13:51 +0000

Most of my blog posts are centered around one photo session or wedding and while this one has been inspired by one couple in particular (I will tell you more about them shortly) I am speaking to all of the couples I have the pleasure of photographing every year. As a wedding photographer I work with about 25 couples each year who are about to tie the knot. In general the majority of these couples getting married are in their twenties or thirties, deeply in love and just getting their lives started. I enjoy working with each of them. Getting to know them as a couple, learning what motivates and moves them and incorporating that into how I tell the story of their wedding day is truly what makes my job as a wedding photographer worth while.

What I am trying to say is that the experience and connection are important. Weddings are not an easy thing to photograph. There are many, many things to consider over the course of the day not to mention the hours upon hours of editing and album designing that goes on behind the scenes. If I didn’t thrive on the challenges and enjoy working with people I would have given up shooting them years ago but I am drawn to documenting these love stories which brings me to Cindy and Jim.

I recently photographed the wedding of Jim and Cindy. They are not my typical wedding client. The beautiful bride, Cindy, is 73. When we first met she proudly boasted that she is older than Jim and I teased her that she was robbing the cradle. These two are the inspiration for this post. They are in their golden years. A time when some may have already lost a spouse and given up on love but these two found it again and it is absolutely apparent when they look at each other.

If you have lost your faith in love and relationships you need to come work with me for a while. You will see that relationships are complicated and sometimes trying but ultimately love, friendship and family is most the meaningful part of our lives. As a photographer I am honored that so many people trust me to document these meaningful moments! So here’s to love, the romantic kind and the love shared between family and friends. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

That’s the look of love! This image was captured during Cindy & Jim’s ceremony. Its just one candid moment but it speaks volumes!

New Product Announcement – Keepsake Image Box

jamyeper — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 22:23:51 +0000

After each portrait session our clients are invited back to the studio for a viewing session where we sit down in front of a large screen and decide on their favorite images and which ones they want to purchase to hang on the walls of their home. Often after choosing one or several that will be enlarged for a wall portrait our clients express a desire to have ALL of them. Our solution for this has been to offer a photo book or album but now we can offer another option that has already proven to be popular with the few people who have seen them.

We are excited to announce a brand new product to our line of portrait products. This adorable keepsake image box is perfect for boudoir, family, newborn, child and high school senior portrait sessions. We can create them to hold anywhere from 20 to 200 5×7 art prints. The custom designed cover features your favorite image and inside the cover there is a hub to hold a disc with your image files or slideshow . Its perfect to display on your coffee table or book shelf and have your entire session right at your finger tips!

Meghan & Josh have a great sense of style and undeniable chemistry. They love all things vintage and incorporated various vintage items into their Engagement Session.

Valerie And Wade’s Wedding Book Design

jamyeper — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 19:45:49 +0000

I very much enjoyed shooting Valerie and Wade’s wedding recently but struggled designing this album for them. The struggle was only due to the fact that I was trying to stay within the confines of the page capacity of their 40 page wedding book. Try as I might to make this design work inside of 40 pages this wedding album screamed to be 50 pages so I just went with it. Once they saw the design they agreed that it had to be 50 pages. I gave them a good deal on the upgrade in page count and this custom design is current in Italy at our book maker being custom bound and printed.

The images from this wedding are a beautiful testament to the love between these two. Valerie and Wade were super easy to photograph. Valerie’s very large family was well organized and Wade’s clan was a joy to work with as well. The resulting images speak for themselves. Thanks Val & Wade for inviting us along on this beautiful occasion. It was a pleasure to be part of the merriment!
