T &M • An Engagment By J.Guess

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

Every time I start to write an into to M & T engagement session I just keep giggling! I love to make my couples laugh, but I swear I don’t think I stopped laughing the whole time. It was just so much fun to hang out with them! We met up at 21c Museum Hotel. 21c is amazing, I love to walk around and look at all the exhibits. Currently the featured exhibit by Simen Johan. If you love/like taxidermy it is for you.  I will forever have memories of the “Yak”.

I am always in awe of talented people M painted this and one night when they were staying at 21c T walked in an saw this painting. I found it even more impressive that he painted this while she was in the house! She knew he was painting, so he had to paint a second piece to cover up the fact that he was up to something! This ranks pretty high on my romantic meter!

I call this thing the spaceship……

To the left in this picture is a deer/yak thing hanging on the wall. It was very odd, but has a special place in my heart now.

I love 21c’s penguins. I swear they are sooo awesome, believe it or not I had not gotten to play with one yet!

I love …love.

I love red too. Most of you know I have this serial obsession with red. If I wore heels, I would soooooooo have to steal her shoes!

A few weeks back T emailed me to ask if they could bring M’s 62 Impala….when I saw pictures I nearly had a heart attack. I LOVE OLD CARS! It was/is so beautiful! Remember my mention of my red love earlier….it was red and black!

Growing up we had a 57 Chevy Bel Air hardtop in the drive way, I will one day have a car similar to it!

Some times I am not perfect, but I chose to keep  this picture anyways, in the picture below,the side-view mirror is in focus and they are not, but I just love the feeling. It is a true visual of how they feel about each other.

I kept going back in forth with this being in Black/White or in Color…….I let Chico pick!(My Chihuahua, who happens to be sitting on my shoulder as  I write this….)

Rambling of a Photog-geek-rapher • By J.Guess Photography

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

It has been a very busy and wonderful few weeks. I just wanted to share some pictures of pictures and other things.

But first I have to share one of my biggest fears in the world. The EVIL escalator. Going up isn’t so bad…it is riding down! I just do not like it, who thought it was a good idea to design those things with little teeth like groves.

One of my pictures took 2nd place in the People Category.


Model: Oletha Dawn Roth          Hair: Catherine Jones
Location: REALLY OLD HOUSE (With permission)


Fun Fact: I still can’t decide how I want to crop this image…I have it in my final edit folder two different ways….I am a geek.

One of my other pictures recognized. (Top Center)

I was awarded :
1st in People/Portraits
Vincent Hensley Memorial Award- Black & White Photography
and
Best of Show


Model: Lindsey Cheatham     Hair /Makeup: Katie Armstrong & Brandy Doyle
Location: Use you imagination….


Fun Facts:
1.Lindsey has my wedding ring set on her hand.
2.I almost didn’t enter this picture at all. I didn’t think it would get a good reaction. Eric ( The Husband) asked, “Do you want people to stop and look or win a ribbon?”. I went with the stop and look image …and got a ribbon(s).
3. I have a thing. If I see the bottom of your feet, I would rather see toes and not an outline of shoes.

This year I have been pretty much living at the State Fair. It has been fun! I got to attempt to help train the ducks in the Discovery Barnyard…

Some were more reluctant then others to go down the slide.

This makes me want to go snow skiing!!!

With out the same results.

Over all fun has been had and will continue!
