Hi everyone, we are so pleased with the results from the Texas Professional Photographers seminar in Kerrville this past June.  Three of our prints won merits and the print “Champagne du Cheval” won a judge’s choice award.  This print is of our horse Bonito that Jack made into this beautiful art print, which is available as a print on our website.  Just go to www.jackpuryear.com and click on the fine art button and order online!  Stay cool now.

Greetings!  We were honored to receive the runner-up for Photographer of the Year at this months Professional Photographers of America meeting in Austin.  Our colleagues voted and we just missed the first place…but there is always next year!  We are busy with many family portraits, as we usually are at this time of year.  Even with the slow economy it is always a good investment to have your portrait done by a professional photographer.  We make sure your portraits will last for generations to come.  Think about a gift certificate if you can’t find the time this month.

Greetings!  We have another award winning print this month which received a 2nd place at the PPA meeting.  It is a collaboration between Jack and Monica, with the original photograph hand painted by Monica to turn it into a “virtual painting”.  It is so much fun to try different effects and to surprise our clients with that “wow moment”!  Hope you like it and check out our website at Jackpuryear.com for updates.

Howdy!  Well, it is already October and that means the holiday season is right around the corner.  Sharing your self with family and friends is the hallmark of this time of year and one of the best ways to do that is with a family portrait.  For the cost of a few dinners out or a few rounds of golf you can have a family portrait that will be cherished for generations to come.  We offer payment plans for those who would like to place larger orders but may not be able to pay all a once.  So get off the couch and call us before it’s to late!  And don’t sweat the changing times to much…they always return to the positive.

Hi everyone,  well fall is here at last and the holidays are not far behind so we have a new line of really affordable, not to mention cute, gift ideas.  Each laminated plaque comes with it’s own easel and can fit almost anywhere.  Check out our website for more samples.  Even if the economy is in the dumps doesn’t mean you can’t have some fun and share a smile with your friends and family.

Things never get boring around here that’s for sure!  We went on another commercial shoot today in the sweltering heat, but as you can see the results turned out great.  This particular shoot was for a magazine cover dealing with business technology, which may sound boring but can actually be quite interesting.  Especially after Jack gets done with the photos!  It’s funny, nobody thinks that they are very photogenic until we show them the results and what can be done by a creative team of artists.  Does that sound like someone you know?  Give us a chance to prove it to you, check out our website at:  www.jackpuryear.com or give us a call at (512)260-8400.  Keep cool now and we look forward to your calls or comments…Thanks for reading our blog!
