Best “party after a wedding”… this usually only happens when the bride & groom are IN A BAND! The Bicho Brother rock!
Best “public display of affection”… goes to Janess & Justin. Quick back story… Janess when to Rice University. Justin had the great idea to get on the bus to ride back to the car and snap a few photos while we were riding. It was late, no one else was on the bus. Jonathan snapped a few photos of them alone on the bus. At the next stop the driver yells out, ” you better take that photo quick this bus is about to fill up.” She was right! Powderpuff practice had just let out and boy did that bus fill up.

We look forward to a great 2012 and wish you the same! – j & b
As the year comes to a close, I always get a bit nostalgic. I love to look back through the blog every now and then and remember the fun we had at past photo shoots and the amazing people we were blessed to meet along the way. I decided to make it easy on myself, and others who wanted to look back as well, and remember some of my favorite photos from the year by making a “favorites of 2010″ blog post. Jonathan and I are looking forward to meeting new faces in 2011 and reconnecting with old ones. We wish all of you the best in 2011 !
PS… Please don’t mind the changing logo. We went through a sort of “logo identity crisis” this year but we have found the one we LOVE so get used to seeing it on the photos for a loooong time
