Alessandra + Tyler Country Club Wedding | Faribault, Minnesota

Marisol Roten October 14, 2013

I have been dreaming of the day I would get to travel with this job. Over the past two years, my photography has taken me to various local places and around the state of Texas. A few weeks ago I finally accomplished one of my goals and traveled to the midwest to photograph my first out of state wedding.

Not only was this my first time photographing a wedding out of Texas but it was also my first time being so far north! It was absolutely beautiful. The best part was the beautiful town where Alessandra and Tyler were married. Faribault, Minnesota is quite picturesque and simply so full of charm.

Alessandra and I went to college together and the last time I had seen her was over four years ago. It was great to see her in her natural surroundings with her beloved family. It was also the first time I met her groom, Tyler.

The two of them have been dating for a few years and their family and friends were so happy to see them begin the next step in their lives as husband and wife. The best part about this wedding was seeing two cultures come together so beautifully. I was honored to be treated so kindly and with warmth from both sides. The Almanza and Putrah families, along with Tyler and Alessandra, made my experience amazing.

Congratulations to the newest newlyweds... The Putrah's! Ale and Tyler, best wishes for a long, healthy, and loving marriage. Thank you for allowing me to spend such a joyous day with you as your wedding photographer.

Ale, thank you for bringing me to Minnesota! I hope to go back many times to do what I most love... my job!

Portraits | 2013 Fall Special

Marisol Roten October 13, 2013

It's well into fall season right now and the holidays are quickly approaching, hooray! To keep up with tradition, and because some of my most beloved clients have asked, I have decided to take on some mini sessions for portraits.

If you and/or your family would like to have portraits done just in time for holiday cards, to share with family and friends, or simply to have an updated portrait done you may want to take advantage of this year's fall portrait special.

I am offering the following:

The Details

The 2013 Fall Portrait Special is available for the month of October and November. There will be limited availability during December so I encourage you to book early. Sessions will be held in the Mcallen, Texas area and may incur a small milage fee for the lower Rio Grande Valley. These sessions are meant to be relaxed, a little candid, and all fun. You are encouraged to add a little style into your session and take advantage of having your portrait done. Groups larger than 4 people will incur an additional per person charge of $15, babies don't count. All sessions will take place at an outdoor selection and will include a flower of the day. Session is limited to 25 minutes and will go by fairly quick. Don't worry, it's plenty of time to get good photos but if you are looking into a more detailed session, with wardrobe changes, please inquire about booking a regular portrait session. *Newborn sessions, specifically, require a full session.

Payment is required upon booking and you may use Paypal, Cash, Credit, or Check.

The Goods

The special includes a 25 minute session, an online gallery with your images, and 10 4x6 matte proofs. Additional items are available for purchase if desired and payment plans are available. Turnaround is expected to be before December.

Please inquire for further questions to mary@marisolizaguirre.com

Thank you & see you soon!

***Side Note: I will be having a great "Black Friday" deal for weddings... stay tune to find out what it is!!!

Update

Marisol Roten October 6, 2013

I've caught a bad case of the cold or what could very well be this season's flu. Blah.

This has totally thrown me for a loop with work and has kept me lounging in bed and away from the computer for most of the weekend. There have been some inquiries asking for fall specials and mini sessions which I will be announcing in the coming days.

Until then, cough. cough...

Sophia + Rolando Basilica Engagement | San Juan, Texas

Marisol Roten September 30, 2013

I had the honor of photographing Sophia and Rolando this past Friday in preparation for their upcoming wedding. They are a sweet couple who I finally had the pleasure of meeting just recently. After dating for the last couple of years, they are ready for the commitment to one another. These two have a sweet and caring demeanor that is easily apparent in they way they interact with each other. Photographing them was effortless and after a few clicks of the shutter, they became relaxed in front of the camera.

Rolando even made a few jokes, although his weren't as cheesy as mine.
