They’re kissing, looking at each other lovingly, hugging and dancing in a park during golden hour surrounded by tall grass, wild flowers and sunshine.

We took a walk through the heart of ATX just as the crisp air was rolling in, finding poetry in the contrast between the concrete skyline and a quiet, joyful stillness. Some people just radiate a warmth that completely outshines the city lights. Grateful for the time spent chasing the golden hour and creating these frames with Danish & Arlene This gallery is exactly why I look forward to this time of year. If you’re looking wanting fall photos, get with me asap. I still have some availability left. Let’s find a quiet corner of the city and tell your story:

ID: -A man with medium brown skin, a dark beard and wearing glasses. He is wearing a brown wide-brimmed hat, round dark-framed glasses, a gold hoop nose ring, and a long gold earring on his left ear. He has on a tan overcoat layered over a brown-and-cream houndstooth scarf and a chunky beige knit sweater. His expression is warm and friendly, showing his teeth as he smiles. The background is an outdoor park area with green grass, large tree trunks, and soft, blurred foliage, giving the scene an autumn or early winter feel. In some images shows him walking front of downtown’s skyline as well

When I first stepped behind the lens to capture Jasmine’s portrait for her upcoming book, I wasn’t just taking pictures. I was documenting the profound transformation of a soul that refused to stay fractured.
She endured the heavy, silent weight of systemic trauma. But instead of letting that brokenness consume her, she chose to use her wounds as windows of light. She didn’t just survive the systemβ€”she rose to educate the world and fiercely advocate for the Deaf community, paving entirely new roads where none existed before. To see her is to witness the entire ocean in a single drop. I am deeply honored to be the photographer trusted to capture her light, her scars, and her legacy. Her story has officially come to the world. Link your buy her book is found on my bio!

It’s even on Amazon!! Support her in this important work she’s doing. I am posting her amazing shoot in the next post! Jaz Garcia Jasmine | Deaf Latina Author

Reflecting on day one as another year in business approaches. Growing this photography business completely transformed my life and taught me exactly which path to stay on. To those who couldn’t see the vision, thanks for the motivation. Every rep, every frame, and every year has been earned through hard work. Deeply rooted in my community and stronger than ever.
