So Behind

Hey Everyone,

I have to come to grips with the fact that I just don't have a lot of time to blog. There is so much work that has to be done so I will not promise to do better with blogging any more, I will just blog when I can.

Now, I have been super busy shooting fashion, weddings, portraits, and even kids. I have a lot to share, I will start with this wedding I shot a few months back. I hope you like. I really enjoyed shooting this couple, I pretty much grew up with the groom, and the bride is hilarious, if I didn't have her laughing she had me laughing. To Armondo and Kamiesha keep God first in your marriage and enjoy life together. Thanks again for letting me be apart of your special day.

I'm Still Alive

I know, I know It's been such a long time since I have posted anything on my blog, But I have to tell you that my life has been on a roller coaster, well during the time of my absents from my blog there has been a lot of things that has taken place. I had a daughter who was born premature. She lived for 8 months and now she is passed on, but during this time I literally documented her whole life from the time my wife became pregnant until the very last day my daughter spent here on earth. I miss and love her so much, but I know she is in a way better place now. I use to work a daytime job as well as my photography business... Well, the day time job is gone now, (I was laid off due to down sizing in the company), but now J. Harris photography is full time and also has a new office and studio location in the Fairview Heights area of Illinois. Open house is come real soon and I will let you know when so don't worry;0). So as you can see there has been quite a bit going on in my life, but I will try to make sure that I do better in the future with my blogging. Now there have been some new things happening with my business I have been making some changes, I have a new logo which I will be sticking with. I have made a few changes to my logo trying to find something that really fits me, and my website has an all new look so please check that out at www.jharrisphotography.com. ummm is there anything else? Oh I can't forget about my project. I am working on a project call the H.O.H.T Project, I hope to launch it this year, but it all depends on the support I have so keep your eyes open for that. I will explain more about this in another post. So, I think that's it, but before I go let me give a big shout out to my best friend in the whole wide world, this person is a great person and means so much to me. ... drum roll please ...... My Wife Rachael Harris. I love you Ray..... So until next time people, stay sharp and stay focused.
