A Mississippi Summer Wedding

Traditional Southern Apostolic Pentecostal Wedding

A Beautiful Mississippi Wedding. More details to follow, for now I hope you enjoy the images. We had wonderful time in this beautiful traditional southern wedding at Heritage Family Church in Brookhaven Mississippi. The stressful job of a wedding photographer only becomes worse when it happens to be your own son’s wedding. Usually most weddings feature lots of getting ready images of the bride but hey he is my son so guess who was the star on this one 😉

Stopping Life: Images of my World

miami family portrait photography by jorge r gonzalez photography
Jonathan, Brandon and Tarzan by Jorge R Gonzalez

Images from my world: Sometimes as photographers we get so focused on assignments and working to keep the bills payed that we stop looking at our on lives for the images that one day will bring memories to us.

We forget the reason that we originally picked up a camera, which at least to me was to capture rectangles of my life. I loved the quick drawing of the things that surrounded me, as Henry Cartier Bresson would say in his later years that was what photography was for him. He was known for capturing the “decisive moment”, that moment that wouldn’t been seen ever again. Those flickers of light where everything was in place to frame that second that later would become eternal for the memory.

Life goes fast, maybe as fast as the speed of light. You blink and it’s gone, no turning back there is no rewind, no pause button in life. It is constant the movement forward, never backwards. The only thing that we have that comes close to be able to pause this spinning into the future is our memories of past events. But as we grow older it becomes harder to tap into those memories, the layers build up and it’s not as easy as before to recall our youth, our life moments.

That is the greatness of photography, like nothing else in the world it is wonderful tool, medium to use for recording those flickers of light full of details. Those moments that will not be here again. I will use the image above to illustrate this point: It is a simple image  of three young men waiting to leave for Church on a Sunday afternoon like many other Sunday afternoons. Yet this moment has not been repeated again and it might not they way things have turn out. Now you might say what does it matter, well to one of these young man every time that he will see this image it will remind him of that afternoon when he gave a Bible study to Tarzan as he is called because of his long hair. It will remind him of the burden that he felt in his heart to reach out and share something that is the most important thing in his life.   When he is old and in that place in his life that God has for him, he can recall this little moment by just looking at this simple image that his dad took of him and his friends.

I guess as I get older what once I took for granted is coming under a new light. Wisdom, I don’t know if that is what it is or maybe experiences that are driving me to not allow life to pass by without clicking away at it.

More to come later…

Jorge

 

 

 

 

Family Photography Session in Homestead Florida

I recently had the privilege to photograph a wonderful family at Homestead Bayfront National Park. We arrived very early to benefit from the beautiful light. It was cold but all the wonderful smiles warmed up the place. Great people to work with very willing to pose and give their best to the shoot.  Here are a couple of shots from the many that we took that morning. Afterwards my assistant [my daughter] and myself were treated to a delicious meal at Cracker Barrel were we spent a great time of just chewing the fat. Not that the food was full of fat it just a saying.

Sunrise

The incredible power of one image to active the memory of an event, of a moment in life. The image above to most viewers is a simple one, just a girl on a boat looking at the sun. To most viewers it would seem just that. But for those involved in that moment, it becomes much more. It brings into remembrance the many factors that where involved; the water with its movement, its smell, its color. It brings into remembrance that wonderful moment of seeing the sunrise at 6:30 am with its magnificent light over the water. Of chasing the birds hoping that they are on top of a school of bait fish signifying that there are dolphin or tuna underneath. The sound of the powerboat engines with its propellers cutting into and pushing the water causing the craft to move eastward to open water, towards a place where man becomes lost by the immense ocean. A place where even the largest of vessels fight the currents and waves to arrive at their destinations. The expectation of the moment that will not come back, you can try to replicate it yes of course, but this moment is lost forever into the memory of our minds and into a bit of information store in the hard drive of a laptop.

The fleeting moment as with all of life events can truly never be duplicated, all that we are left with is small souvenirs locked in our memory which requires  a catalyst, a key if you will, to bring back all that was involved in that long gone moment. Nothing like a photograph to help in retrieving those precious memories of one’s life. That was my goal in taking this image, to create that bit of information that could be store be it on a computer or as something more tangible be it an album or hanging on a wall. It is not a perfect image technically, of course I know that but that is not the intention. I was not looking for that, I wanted a small button to active my memory of when the future comes and I want to remember my little girl I can look at this image. I will remember the dolphins we found, the smiles, the expressions on our faces, and of course my daughter whispering into my ear with a challenging attitude towards me and the rest of us on the boat “my where the biggest”. All eleven years of her defying us to do better.

Wow that is what this image will bring back and more. It is very personal, but is also what been a photographer is about. Helping others create those catalysts for the future, the buttons, that they will push in the future to bring into life the memories of today.
