Hi! My name is Jim Miller, and my wife Jacki and I own jimmages - contemporary wedding photography.

This is my blog, and I am so glad that you found me.

How to pronounce jimmages? Well, you could pronounce it jimmages, as in rhyming with images. You could also pronounce it Jim Images. And for those upscale clients, please let me give you the phonetic pronunciation...Zhim AH Zhay.

Just kidding. Pronounce it any way that you like. That's not important. What is important is that hopefully I just made you smile. That's my job you know... to make you smile at the wedding, to make you smile when you see your photographs, and to make you smile (OK, slightly grin) when you get your bill!

We are located in Sherman, TX, but we photograph amazing weddings all over the southwestern United States. My style might best be described as resembling photojournalism. That is to say, I photograph real events as they are really happening... staying on the DL and not interrupting every moment by asking you to stop, look at me, and have you give me an awkward forced looking smile.

But the truth is, we do need some formal portraits, so it's not completely a photojournalistic approach. I tell my clients that I do enough posed portraits to make their parents happy, but mostly I am capturing the real moments of the most important day of their life, which makes them very happy. So what is this style called? I dunno...it hasn't been around long enough to have a 'name' yet, so I just call it contemporary wedding photography. Sounds kind of cool, no?

So welcome aboard the jimmages blog. Feel free to look around, make yourself at home, and leave a comment or two.

And please feel free to shoot me an email or give me a call if you have questions. I have packages that will fit pretty much any reasonable budget. I am a really low key guy, I love what I do, and I get really excited when I see in a client's eyes that I have delivered more than they expected. Because sometimes smiles show up in the coolest ways...

| Need help staying awake? Have a jimmages wedding! |

Remember a week or so ago, I blogged a really moving story about a wedding that I photographed for David and Jodi at Wall-Robbins Historical House in Plano?

The situation was that I had never met the bride and groom before the wedding, and when I did, I was so saddened to hear that the groom's mother had been hospitalized and in grave health, and would be unable to attend the wedding.

That event led to a very bittersweet wedding...full of joy, yet full of sadness. For a refresher, here's the blog entry for that story...

Well, I posted the photos for that wedding online, and let the couple know how to view them. Imagine my surprise, and my total happiness to receive this message on my answering machine the next morning...

Thanks for that message, Jodi. You not only made my year, but you also made me proud of what I do for a living, and how sometimes that can mean a little bit more than just photographing a wedding.

God bless you and David in your wonderful new lives together.
