Grace High School Senior: Caleb Jones

First of all I want to say Happy Birthday Caleb :)  Caleb and I ventured out around town recently to get some fun shots for his senior year at Grace in Tyler. It was actually one of the easiest shoots I've ever done - since I already know Caleb from shooting his brother's portraits last year :) Caleb will be heading to Austin , to attend UT after he graduates this year! Congratulations Caleb :D It was great hanging out with you! XO, Mj

Anna and Ava + Mom and Dad :)


Finally... A Penkilo FAMILY session!  It's about time guys! That is all I have to say :)
I Just LOVE these girls! I've had the privilege of watching them grow as long as my business has! And it is the BEST compliment that they return again and again - it's been a blast! And special thanks to Monica's parents for providing the day's entertainment behind my back ;) heehee! I'm sure Monica and Gary enjoyed the break.
Enjoy your sneak peeks! XO, Mj

Briton W: Robert E Lee Class of 2010


 BMW + Electric Guitar = Happy Photographer ;)   Meet Brit, from REL class of 2010. A talented musician by ear, lover of fast cars, and football. What a fun shoot! I heard that he wanted part of his session to take place with his favorite car, but I had no idea I was going to get to ride around for the entire shoot in the BMW with the top down! Thanks for the ride, Brit! It was great meeting you and your parents. I look forward to the future family shoot with them :)  Enjoy your sneak peeks!!
XO, Mj~

Double the fun: Miles and Max :)


During my recent business trip to Austin, I was lucky enough to visit good friends' of my sister's, January and James Flores and their new twin boys, Miles and Max! They make their debut on my blog at 2 months young so they aren't exactly newborn - but close enough in my book...er portfolio ;)   My sister assisted me during this shoot - Thanks bunches, Mer!  Thanks, James for doing such an awesome job on those windows, shrubs, and that little grocery run during our shoot. And a big thanks to Miles and Max for tolerating all of us girlies putting them in silly places...like the sink - LOL!  Enjoy your sneak peeks Flores family! It's always nice to see you, and I hope to see you all again soon! XO, Mj

Deborah, Belagio, and Little Bit

  I recently traveled to Austin on business and had the privilege of photographing Deborah and two of her babies, Belagio and Little Bit, whom she calls her 'quarter of a quarter horse'.
  Deborah represents local talent in Austin, her two horses, and another client, Mic Abernathy (aka Capt Jack Sparrow) included. If you want something fun and different for your next event, you might call up Carribean Pearl Entertainment and see what kind of fun they might stir up for you!
Enjoy your sneak peeks, Deborah...It was fun spending the morning with you and your family!
XO, Mj
