Winnie Couture Bridal Salon - Fall Fashion Show -Houston Wedding Dress
Julie and I got the opportunity to work with the very talented Winne Lee, owner of Winnie Couture Bridal Salon. She designs wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses that retail in stores all over the nation and world. She held her fall fashion show this past Friday. Perry Video and Photo was the official photographer and videographer for the event. Great show! Check out the pics...

Perry Studios - Now Offering Wedding and Portrait Photography Services!
Perry Family
Been a while since we last blogged for Perry Video and Photo. Our young babies (Jackson age 3.5 and Annie age 1.5) have a lot to do with that. Blogging regularly is not as easy as it has been before.
But we're back blogging regularly. We'll see how this goes...
-----------------------------------
The best news we have for Perry Studios is that we now offer fine portrait and photojournalism photography in addition to video productions. Perry Video Productions is now doing business as Perry Video and Photo or Perry Studios. Admittedly, we have kinda a name identity crisis. We just like taking pictures and video. Tough to stick to just one name. Maybe we could just be like "Madonna", "Sting", or "Prince". Haha, Ya, I like that. Let's stick with that and just be "Perry" ;)
In 2008, we will launch a site dedicated specifically to fine portrait and photojournalism photography. It will be a nice flash site, likely. Check out our blog and www.perryvideophoto.com site for a link to the new one.
Here are some great Perry Photography pictures from 2007 Houston weddings:

Thank you for taking a look at our work and beautiful brides/couples! Photography has been the most fascinating new part of our wedding and event business. We look forward to many more years of photography in Houston!
Here is a beautiful wedding that was held at Chapelwood United Methodist and The Hobby Center for The Performing Arts. We thought we would resurrect to update our blog.
The couple here is Sarah and Brian Austin. We still get to see them at weddings these days when they refer us to their friends. Thanks guys!
Below is an e-mail from one of our sweet brides, Blanca Silva-Solis. Her wedding video turned out so nicely. Julie did such a great job with the editing. We got the fun opportunity to deliver it to her and her husband on Valentines day. Read below.
Hello Perry Family!
WOW! This is simply the only way I can start to describe how I feel about our video. It was unbelievable we were so happy to get it on Valentine's day THANK YOU so much for going the extra mile to meet us. It was great to watch it on our 1 year engagement anniversary right behind our 3 month wedding anniversary. It was phenomenal work. I was confident that the video was going to be nice, but I had no idea that it would look like a sample video! It was awesome. My parents and sisters have seen and we all laughed and cried. You truly captured the essence of how close I am with my parents and sisters. Thank you so much. My dad says he can't wait to get his copy so he can watch it everyday! I cannot thank you enough, it was truly amazing work. Julie and Jack you have a real talent for video filming and production. May God Bless you with above and beyond success in your business. Know that I will recommend you as the #1 for wedding videos to everyone that I talk to. As a last minute decision (remember I was lucky enough to book you like 30 days before the wedding) it was the BEST wedding decision after saying YES to Andrew. Thank you again. We feel very fortunate to have found ya'll. If I can help in talking to any future brides please let me know. Also feel free to use our footage for promotional purposes as well.
On Saturday, January 28, 2006, the wedding ceremony of Traci and Steve Theis was celebrated by nearly 200 guests. The wedding ceremony was held at West University United Methodist Church. The reception following was at The Bella Terraza.
Many out of town guests celebrated this wonderful occasion with Steve and Traci. Steve's groomsmen and ushers--all 10 of them--traveled from different areas of Ohio to stand by Steve as he accepted Traci's hand in marriage.
That Saturday was filled with heavy rain. Thankfully, the rainy day ended at just the right time for Steve and Traci. Around 5:00, the Saturday rain eased up and the sun began to set just before the 5:30 wedding ceremony of Traci Payne and Steve Theis.
What impressed me the most, was the heartfelt devotion that Steve showed for Traci. It is very touching to see the heart of such a devoted spouse. Steve's reaction when Traci made her way down the center isle tells it all. Take a look at the below clip.
The reception was great fun! Evoke Photography was present. They always do a great job documenting the fun and dancing. James Levine with Dynamic Entertainment was the DJ. James is a smooth cat. He knows how to get the crowd dancing. Great to work with James again. Heather with The Bella Terraza as always gave top notch service to her clients and their guests. Traci and Steve had lots of fun! Steve really liked his rasberry amaretto cake. He forced me to try it, so I did. Yummmm!
Last night, Saturday, January 14, 2006, in front of a count of close to 300 wedding guests, we celebrated the marriage of Dan and Carrie Victor.
Dan and Carrie met each other about 2-4 years ago through mutual friends at a Cajun Crawfish Party. (sorry that my time reference is off, guys! My wife, Julie, likely knows the time exactly. She's the Math major and detail better half ;) )
Dan and Carrie are dear people. It was a pleasure to be around their families during their wedding day. It is no surprise how wonderful people find each other to make great couples.
The wedding ceremony was held at The Woodlands United Methodist Church. Shortly after 6:00pm, Carrie and her father walked the beautiful candle lit isle to give her hand in marriage to Dan Victor.
Following the ceremony, they proceded to the reception held at The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center. If you have never been to The Woodlands Resort and Conference Center, make sure to check it out! It is a beautiful wedding destination. The staff that work the events there have known Julie and me for years. They are very professional and take great care of their event clients.
Music for the reception was provided by Robin with Rock-N-Robin Entertainment. Photography by Magnolia. Both great to work with.
At close to midnight, Carrie let Robin know that it was about time to close the party down and head to the bar downstairs with their friends.
Dan and Carrie will be honeymooning in Hawaii. Dan says no surfing, although it would be cool to say that he was. He'll stick with body boarding.
Congratulations to Dan and Carrie!
Jack

Dan and Carrie Victor Rehearsal Dinner - January 13, 2006
Friday, January 13, 2006 the Victor and Hansen family celebrated the rehearsal dinner of Dan and Carrie, soon to be Victor. I filmed the rehearsal dinner and worked as technician for LCD projector, DVD player, speakers, and screen of the photo montage of Dan and Carrie Victor. The Rehearsal Dinner was held at The Grotto in The Woodlands. Special toasts were made from Dan and Carrie to their friends as well as from their friends and family to Dan and Carrie.
One of the toasts that stuck out with me as an extra special one was the one from Carrie to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hansen. Follow this clip for a special moment of the rehearsal dinner.
