NewYearWeddingGiveawayJZP

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

If you would like a travel quote to your specific venue, please e-mail me at photo@jillianzamora.com.

This weekend I shot a wedding and an engagement session. Both were entirely awesome.

PLUS I  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!

Hearing Theresa tell hers and Travis’ story, it all came about pretty simply.

One day waiting outside of a class at UNT she heard this guy playing guitar. She loves music and plays guitar herself, so she sat down beside him to listen. Before she knows it they’ve struck up a conversation and before parting ways Travis asks for her number, ya know, just in case they should ever want to play music together . . . On campus that same day a group was handing out plastic purple and white bracelets to students and randomly enough both Theresa and Travis separately ended up with one. And both of them kept those bracelets because it had been a noteworthy day.

It turns out they still wear those bracelets to this very day (and are in fact wearing them in these engagement photos) because after that day they were Theresa-and-Travis.
