Oh me, oh my, where has the day gone? I have been wanting to blog this engagement session ALL DAY LONG.
Why?
1. Paige and Justin are photographers. And they chose me to shoot their engagements. HIGHEST COMPLIMENT a photographer can pay another photographer is to ask them to shoot them. Sure, it’s a bit nerve-wracking and you’re all “0hmygoodnessI’mphotographinganotherphotographerohwaitTWOphotographerswhatif(insert photography mistake here)happensandtheypointandLAUGHatme????” but the majority of the time (insert photography mistake) doesn’t happen and most of the time my clients are too sweet to point and laugh even if it did.
2. Paige is wearing lots of sparkles. Sparkles are my favorite.
3. These two are just gorgeous, wonderful, big-hearted people. And when I say big-hearted I mean during the course of  the session Justin not only stopped to get a bottle of water, a snack and some cash out of his car to give to a homeless man we passed but also prayed with him before parting ways. Yah. Big, sincere, Jesus-loving hearts these two have. Also, they love each other a lot, a lot. And I very much enjoyed taking photos for them.
Also, did I mention that their super-secret location choice was killer? Killer.
Paige and Justin, it was a pleasure and an honor working with you both.
x’s and o’s!
Blog readers, don’t forget to enter/share the JZP wedding photography giveaway! For details, read this blogpost.
You guys, I cannot tell you how excited I am about this new venture.
I was sitting at my desk editing a wedding last week and literally found myself moved to tears at how thankful I am to have this job and how gracious the Lord has been to us in allowing us to do what we love with people we adore. I’m so looking forward to what will come in 2013. There is something about the fresh outlook and anticipation a new year brings and I wanted to share some of my 2013 giddiness by giving away a full day of wedding photography coverage by yours truly and my handsome second-shooter (aka my super-talented husband, James). We are hoping to reach out to brides and grooms all over the world who are planning a wedding day that will be filled to the brim with heart.
Weddings can be on any day of the week — it does not have to be on a weekend to be eligible.
JZP (meaning myself and James) will deliberate over the entries and announce the contest winner on February 28th.
Top 3 runners up will receive a significantly discounted rate for JZP wedding photography services.
There will be prizes in the form of a free photo session for the person who refers the winning couple/wedding to us — so please share, share, share the giveaway on Facebook, Instagram, via word-of-mouth, email, carrier pigeons — you name it!
If you have any questions about the contest feel free to comment below or send me an e-mail to photo@jillianzamora.com

Again, we are SO excited about this and we hope you are too!
This weekend I shot a wedding and an engagement session. Both were entirely awesome.
PLUS I Â got to try out my new tilt-shift lens we got in the mail last week — so that was fun too!
Stay tuned to the blog for a VERY exciting announcement following VERY shortly behind this post.
Reason #4892 why I love my job: I get to surround myself with people who are heart-burstingly happy-in-love.
Madison and Preston are the perfect example of two such people and I had a wonderful time with them at their engagement session this brisk December morning.
 It brings me so much joy to see how happy you two make each other and I cannot express how excited I am for y’all’s wedding this June!
