Today I drove out to Mt. Bonnell which is located in Austin, TX to photo Kim & Jason’s engagement photographs. They are getting married in July in Galveston. Here are some of my favorites.

Happy Holidays 2007 from the Zeeks!

Rob, Mary & Evan

This evening we finally got around to taking our family photo for Christmas! After some thought, we decided to leave out the cat & our two dogs. That would not have worked with the self timer and all.

Michael & Julie were married on Saturday December 1st at Sacred Heart. The traditional tea ceremony was held earlier in the day.

Unlike most churchs, this particular church was very strict that we were to remain stationary & out of the sanctuary during the ceremony. I don’t have many ceremony images posted on my blog, but I wanted to share this one, since the restrictions of the church were a major challenge for us.

There were some great moments at the reception. Held at Kim Son, the party was not short of Vietamese tradition. I just love the red dress!

I had the pleasure of photographing Brandi Harcourt’s bridal portraits yesterday evening at Ashton Gardens. I was already booked for her wedding date (I will be in Austin), but was honored to be asked to do her bridal portraits. I wish you guys the best!
Here are a couple of my favorites.

Staci & TJ were married on Saturday November 24th at St. Theresa’s near Memorial Park. Their reception was at the Houston Racquet Club. They are such a photogenic couple… I have their engagement on an earlier blog post. Now that they are married I can post Staci’s beautiful bridal pics as well.
