Allison & Jake chose The Reserve in Longview, TX for their special day. The Reserve has a rustic, charming atmosphere and Allison & Jake’s Wedding was the perfect fit. Family and friends gathered for the outdoor ceremony timed with the setting sun. The resulting images were absolutely breath taking. Following the ceremony was the reception, aka the party, held in the beautiful hall. The decorations were superb and the complimenting colors made the captured images extra special. Thank you Allison & Jake for allowing us to be a part of your special day!

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!

Ceremony: St Jude’s Catholic Church

I can talk all day long about lighting, color calibration,  f-stops,  iso  and post production techniques but any good photographer will have a strong grasp of the technical stuff and an artful eye to make it all come together.  So what’s left…the connection between photographer and subject.  I want to know your motivation behind wanting to do the session if the first place. If you have ideas for your photo shoot I want to hear them. I want to lend advice when you need it. I want to take my time photographing you and even more time putting together your final images and creating custom products that show them off.  I want you to trust that I will do all of this to the very best of my ability and create something that is uniquely you.

Case in point – The Lilly family:

I first photographed them while they were pregnant with their first child Cade. Tiffany knew that I photographed weddings but did not know much about my portrait work. She took a leap of faith and commissioned me to photograph a maternity session for her.  I suggested that Tim, her husband, take part in the session.  I did that first session in their home.  We spent a couple of hours shooting their maternity session and the images were spectacular. As we worked together I could feel them relaxing and getting into the process. By the end of the session they were comfortable enough with me to suggest doing some beautifully intimate shots in their bedroom, bare chested (covering up the naughty parts of course and no you will not see them here on this blog These are images I am sure they do not share with just anyone but cherish none the less and will look back on as the years go by with even more fondness.

From that beginning I have since shot two family portrait sessions and a newborn session for the beautifully photogenic Skyla.  These subsequent sessions have been done in the studio and again in their home. Each time I photograph them I feel more of a connection which of  course has a positive impact of the end result. Tiffany and Tim thank you for trusting me to capture your growing family. I look forward to more sessions down the road and seeing what wonderful image we can create together.

Testimonial from Tiffany Lilly:
Jamye has done many family sessions for us and we have been more than extremely pleased with how the pictures come out. She is very patient and professional with our young kiddos and has a knack for catching fleeting moments on camera. Jamye has really outdone herself with our latest session and highly recommend her for any occasion that you would like for her to capture.

This is the Wedding Album Design for CJ & Susan.  Their wedding was  at Elm Wood Gardens in Palestine Texas with a very fun reception to follow on a party boat on Lake Lewisville.

I loved spending so much time with the same people and getting to know them just a bit better. Both couples scheduled plenty of time for their portraits. It is such a pleasure to be able to work in an un-rushed manner. It allows everyone to relax and allows me to be creative and give my clients a large variety of fun portraits. My advice to bride’s and grooms planning their weddings. Always schedule ample time for your wedding photography…..you will not regret it in the end.

Okay sorry I got a little side tracked there. Ashley & Susan planned a joint wedding reception on a large party boat on Lake Lewisville. What better way to set the mood for your reception then watching the sun set as you float out for 4 hours of dancing, fun, laughter and some very touching moments. Let me just say there was not a dry eye in the place during the toasts. Yes, even me who witnesses similar exchanges on a regular basis had to hold back a few tears.

Ashley and Scott and Susan and CJ your wedding ceremonies and reception were beautiful, moving and just a while lot of fun. Thank you for letting us be a part of it!
