40 Years, 3 Children, and 8 grandchildren later..


My parents - Edward and Patricia Adam - celebrated their 40th anniversary today. I was very fortunate to prove some photo and video coverage fo this. Father Scott Katzenberger of Holy Ghost Church in Houston was very gracious in his permissions. My parents never expected anyting that happened today.

Fr. Scott not only mentioned them in the Mass intentions, but also had parts of his homily for them, and also called them up for a special blessing after Holy Communion.

Afterwards, we went to a Benihanna which my parents have never been to before. My mother always plays 20 questions with something she's never been to before.. fortunately my brother was there to help with the questions of going to a Japanese Steakhouse.


From a photographers note, I have total respect and admiration for the photographer who covered my parents wedding : Al Peguero . He didn't have the technology that we have today, and Holy Ghost church is a very dark church to shoot in.

It has very dark ceilings which asorbs so much light from a flash. He did not have the luxury that we modern photgrpahers have of looking on the back of the camera and seeing how a pitcure turns out.

Here are some other images from the day:



"Are you getting this?" I am kidding.. this is my Father's tradition: Every year, ever since the day my parents have been married, my father has lighted a candle to the Blessed Virgin Mary on the date of their marriage















My mother presenting a boquet to Our Lady of Perpetual Help, just as she did 40 years ago. This time the boquet had 3 roses representing her 3 childer, and 8 other roses which represent her 8 grandchildren.














Fr. Scott preparing to give the blessing to my Parents


















My nephews and niece were able to attend, so we decided to get a picture with them on the very altar that their grandparents were married 40 year prior.


















I decided to have a little fun wih the flash settings, and creat the high contrast shot right after I took the one above






















I also presented my mother with a fully restored version of her bridal portrait

Congratulations Chrissy and Armando!

Chrissy and Armando tied the knot yesterday in New Braunfels. Even though that was slight scare with the overblown "H1N1/Swine Flu" virus possiblity shutting down the church earlier in the week, everything went off pretty much perfectly. Here are some images from yesterday. (Click on them to see a larger version)
































































I am curious though.. just exactly how many people does it take to bussel a dress? Well.. at least Chrissy was enjoying a nice glass of lemon water while everyone else.. to include Armando... was trying to figure it out. :)

Michaela Makes First Communion

My eldest baby, and one of the "Child Chief Executive Officers" of Micha-Angel Productions - Michaela - made her First Holy Communion on Sunday May 3rd, 2009.

I was very fortunate to have my parents there, and it was a very beautiful and event filled day.














And of course, me being the over zealous , photo-taking daddy that I am, I of course had to do a photo shoot with her back at the hotel. When I got this picture, she was getting pretty "pictured out", but I still think this came out very well.

My thanks and appreciation to all of my current clients as I was travelling for this event. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!
