Earlier last week, I’m stoked to place 9th for this image in the WPJA Q3 2011 international competition. The WPJA is a wedding photojournalism website where brides and grooms can select photographers locally or from all over the world.
Yearly Archives: 2011
In the last few weeks I’ve been receiving many reviews from past brides and grooms and I wanted to share one of them from Beth and John. You can read this and many more on Wedding Wire. Thank you, Beth. So thoughtful and kind. “Philip had done the photography for my sister’s wedding three years ago and…
JENNIE AND LUKE MARRY NEXT MONTH AND AFTER NUMEROUS WEATHER DELAYS, we finally found a clear day to shoot Jennie and Luke’s engagement session. We met Saturday morning outside the Menger Hotel downtown San Antonio. Luke had (still has I’m sure today) a stinking cold but I’m thankful he still went though with the shoot. Aren’t they…
So, we’re coming to the end of the year and I have one more wedding to see the year through on the 31st. That will be a very special one with Adam and Tiffany, quite possibly the loveliest folks you could meet. In the first week of January, I’ll no doubt look back on 2011…

I love this picture! That’s may daughter Emma and my second nephew, Braxton. Is there a way I can still get a copy of it? I would love to frame it and hang it in our house. I meant to do it a while back, but it slipped my mind. Thank you for capturing such a wonderful moment!
This afternoon, I’ve just been informed from Kevin Mullins, a friend of mine in the UK, that SWPP, the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers awarded my image silver. The silver award for this image of lovely bride, Savanna, was for the Wedding Photojournalism November category. So excited and happy. Here’s the link to the…

Lovely photo but is she happy or sad?!

A great photograph that captured strong emotions. And as someone said: wedding photography is not about depth of field but about depth of emotions.

Thank you, Jerry. Very kind.
This was a lovely wedding with Josh and Nicole a couple of Saturdays ago. See below a few of my favorites on this very emotional day for Nicole and her family after her father had just recently passed. The wedding was at Incarnate Word Chapel and reception at the Sky Room. Images show with a Leica…

LAST FRIDAY, I HAD THE PLEASURE OF PHOTOGRAPHING ELIZABETH AND FRANK’S WEDDING. Liz and Frank started getting ready at the Menger Hotel and had their ‘first look’ meeting at the hotel bar before promptly downing a few tequila shots with son and daughter. This was a small, quaint ceremony at one of the Missions south…
