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...

| Happy Customers |

When people ask me how I gauge the success of my work, or if I have had a good wedding that day, I always ask myself   'was the client happy?'  A happy client is really the only way that I can say for sure that I have done a good job.


I've received so many thank you cards recently that I thought I would post a few of them and open this up to anyone who wants to leave a comment about their experience working with me.

So feel free to leave a comment and take your best shot...fire away!

| Nate and Shelley in Grapevine |

I reckon my readers are tired, tired, tired of hearing how overworked and busy I am, and are waiting for me to come up with some more goods.

So again, completely out of order, let me show you some images from Nate and Shelley's wedding in Grapevine.

Nate's a super cool Christian man. In fact, I almost feel like he's family, since I photographed his sister Rebekah's wedding earlier this summer.

And Shelley made for a stunning, stunning bride.

The ceremony was so tasteful, elegant and spiritual.

Now let's see some details...

WOW! Check out the cake!

This is Shelley's father, who was so kind and thoughtful to the jimmages staff.

133121

And this is Justus, who helped me to get all of the folks lined up properly for the formals. He did a great job, and had a great sense of humor, too.

It was a great wedding, guys. I felt like jumping for joy, too, just for being there!

| Back from Florida |

The family and I had a great time in Florida. Now we're back and about ready to start shooting some more Texas weddings!

Yep, what they say about the sand and the water in Destin is true. Like sugar and liquid emeralds.

| Ari and Tara at Barron's on 5th Street in Waco |

Hi everyone. We're back from sunny Florida just in time, and I mean just in time, to get to Waco to photograph Ari and Tara's wedding.

Here at | jimmages | we have a lot of rules about blogging, including NEVER blog out of order.

Here at | jimmages | we have a lot of rules about blogging so we can break lots of rules, especially the one about blogging out of order. So I am breaking that rule now and blogging the wedding that we did last night with Ari and Tara in Waco.

Let me warn you, dear blog-reader that this wedding was pretty cool, and so there will be lots of photos in this post. So please plan to be here awhile :>)

The wedding took place at Barron's on 5th St. As a guy who owns an 86 year old house, I really appreciate the beauty of this place.

181332

The bride's dressing room had this, well, wall of boxes...

181540

180418

Here's the garter. More on that later!

180631

It was 102 degrees in the shade at wedding time.

182816

Which made this photo really important to be able to take.

182257

Here's our lovely bride Tara.

183650

And the girls.

184247

184821

184241

I love being 'backstage' at a wedding. Watching all of the prep work really makes you appreciate it even more.

181830

185300

185354

185818

185940

190000

Plus, you get to meet so many nice people. Like this young man.

185014

Ari had the greatest idea for groomsmen gifts I have ever seen. He had a baseball bat customized for each one of them. Here's the one he gave to the best man. Brilliant idea for a gift!

191353

And the guys loved them, too.

191528

I loved the old fashioned veil that Tara chose.

192330

Yeah, I have no idea.

192553

No idea at all.

193438

Not one.

193647

Ari gets his first glimpse of Tara in her wedding dress.

194006

And Tara has her own emotional moment, too.

194633

First stroll as husband and wife.

195225

Tara couldn't have been more stunning.

200235

200414

Nor Ari more dashing.

201052

201118

The reception was held at a place called the Hog Creek Ice House. It was a doozy of a place.

213125

Ari and Tara drove around for a bit before getting to the reception. I think that's a great idea, to spend some time alone before the party.

213921

And so they snuck in the back way.

213938

213952

Let's see some details...

211044

211558

214939

Ari, don't try this yourself...

215325

Now for some cake.

220609

Ari and his Dad share a moment.

221608

Let the dancing begin.

224244

224328

224407

224523

224651

224703

224855

225015

225457

225600


Tara had one more surprise for Ari before the night was over. Remember, I said we'd get back to the garter?

231604

231658

Yep, she subbed in her grandmother without Ari's knowledge.

231731

And she even got a dance out of it later!

232008

All's well that ends well. Thanks Tara and Ari, for letting us be part of your amazing wedding!
