Bridget & Javier’s TTD (Trash the Dress) – Preview

First off I want to thank both Bridget and Javier for accepting to do this session, it had been a session I wanted to do with a bride & groom, but most couples just didn’t want to go for it. You guys were awesome! Thanks for heading out to South Padre Island with me and the crew (Asrid Alonso, Raymond Ponce, and Efren Gutierrez from Maeva films…a video will soon follow). We all really had a blast!! Hope you enjoy this preview.

Brandi

We did some pictures for Brandi this past week in the McAllen – Hidalgo area.  Before we even made the appointment for this session, Brandi brought up something that I think is very important.  She asked if I would have an assistant (girl) with me at the session, I told her of course I did.  I think that its very important that you bring along a friend, sister, parents, whomever to any photo session.  I TRY to always have someone assist me at all sessions but it is not always possible, and that is when I urge my models to bring someone along.  Well here are two of my favorite pics of the session.  Enjoy!

Kike In Action

Today when I opened my email I found these pics in my email.  Thanks to Astrid Alonso (she spells her last name wrong..j/k), my niece, who helped me out in this session, but also got some shots of me in action.  This was from a session we did a couple of weeks ago at South Padre Island.

Melissa’s Sneak Peak

This past weekend I did Melissa’s session.  It was a day where I received a weather alert saying that it was going to be really hot and to make sure to drink plenty of liquids if you were to be outside.  Needless to say, IT WAS A VERY HOT DAY!  So I made sure we had plenty of Gatorade and we went out to do the session.  Melissa was a good sport and did not complain about the heat.  Thank you Melissa for being such a great sport!

Celina’s Trash The Prom Dress Preview

A Few weeks ago my family and I spent a few days at the beach, and while taking a walk one of those days I saw a spot that I thought would be great for portraits.  So today that Celina and I headed to South Padre Island for her session, I knew exactly where I wanted to go.  The weather was great and Celina did awesome.  Here are just a few pics of today’s session

Leslie & Jenny

This past Saturday I had the opportunity to have these to ladies in front of my camera. I had a blast with them even though one of them said she was not photogenic, I’m here to show her otherwise. I hope you gals enjoy the pics. Oh and at the end Jenny was almost eaten by all the mosquitoes at La Lomita park..(sorry about that! I hope it wasn’t that bad!)

Amalia – Preview


This past weekend I had the opportunity to do a shoot for Amalia. We started off in some place near Rio Grande City where we did some really great shots. From there we went into Rio Grande City and went into an old abandoned building where the roof is almost coming down, but we got some awesome shots there. We started driving back to Mission and I saw a side of a building where we got some great shots. We then just drove around and found great places to do some different kinds of shots, I want to thank Amalia for just going along with all my crazy ideas. She never once looked weird at me when I said..."why dont we try...." Thanks Amalia, you really did a great job! Here is just a sneak peak of your pics…enjoy!
