Power Outtage

Last night I was up for some late night editing, story of my life right now. I went to bed about 1 AM. I was pretty tired so I went to sleep pretty quickly and all of a sudden my power went out. I probably wouldn't have noticed but my fan stopped & my apartment has a security system and anytime the power goes off it beeps.

WELL jump ahead the power was off all night until about 7AM. The alarm beeps until you come turn it off so I got up and turned it off my fan starts blowing and for some reason MY PRINTER starts printing random stuff?? It cracked me up I was like what the heck is going on.
I am thinking my power goes off way to often & now its starting to waste my printer paper, not good not good at all :)

My editing Life

SO I have been back from New York City for about 16 days. I had 9 days of not editing whatsoever while I was away. Back to the grind, a grind which I love but it has been a little crazy playing catch up because I had quiet a few clients the week before I left and came back to more, which is an amazing problem to have! 

I appreciate all my clients being patient and realizing it does take time to edit.
I finished editing a wedding today & decided to take a picture of my computer of all the files that have all the clients I still have to edit. I thought I would share :)

Les & Ashley Engagement - Oklahoma Photographer

First off let me just saw how much I appreciate my clients, I get to know most of them fairly well because I spend a lot of time taking pictures of them and talking to them of course. The greatest way to receive a wedding is a client referring a friend to me & I am very grateful for all who do.

I met Ashley @ at wedding she was a bridesmaid in about a year ago, Tod & Tara, when she got engaged she messaged me on Facebook.
I was also able to go to their engagement party to photography the event and meet their friends and family which was also an awesome experience because a lot of times that event doesn't get photographed so it was fun to take pictures of everyone just having fun.
I don't think Les is a huge fan of pictures he was telling me it wasn't one of his favorite things to do but they both for sure love each other because you can tell in all the pictures I was able to take of them. We captured some awesome shots & they are for sure JWP top models.
I am sure Les would never admit it but I think he secretly did like taking pictures haha. Thanks Ashley for giving me a call and looking forward to more pictures to come!

New York City Taxi

My First Taxi ride in NYC was when I got into NYC from the train station I needed to get to the location that Regis and Kelly is filmed so I would be there in plenty of time so I went ahead and took a cab. I was so excited anyway so I am talking to people and the taxi driver asked me where I was from, I responded of course with Oklahoma City. He then proceeded to ask me 'oh is that close to LA, California.' I had to control myself from busting out laughing because in Oklahoma Geography we were taught where LA was & were New York City was. HAHA I am cracking up just typing this. I told him it was in the center of the country and then he was like oh ok yea never heard of that. :|
I was cracking up!
Story of the day brought to you by yours truly Jared Wanzer Photography :)

I Love New York City!

I was in New York City for 9 Days, June 1-9! My third cousin CJ was having a Bat Mitzvah & they asked if I would come and photograph the event. I of course said DUH & turned it into an amazing vacation!
First let me say that I have never had so much fun in my life, since I have been back all I can think about is being in New York City & how much I absolutely loved it! I am sure you will hear stories for years to come but I will write a blog ever now and again about things that happened while I was there. The second day that I was in New York but the first Day I went into NYC, I applied for tickets to Regis & Kelly. I have watched the show for about 10 years & it was very cool to go and see it Live!
Regis actually was on vacation, which he usually is even though it is called Regis and Kelly :) but I still was so excited and I am sure I never stopped laughing and smiling! Pat Sajak was the guest co-host. Kyra Sedgwick was one of the guest on the show. The whole time I was so happy to be there and I met an awesome couple in the audience. At the very end of the show, which it did make TV, I can't find it on You Tube but it is on my DVR SO SOMETIME I will get it on here, but Kelly Ripa came into the audience and I got to shake her hand. In my mind, she whispered I love you :) No, I was just so excited and it was one of my friends, now I just need to be a guest on the show.
Every commercial Kelly Ripa came out & talked to the audience and people were able to ask questions. I snapped a few shots & here are a couple.

this is a really bad picture, but i took this off my tv, hopefully i can figure out how to burn it from my dvr and get a better image but you can tell this is me shaking Kelly Ripas hand.

New Minute Maid Commercial

No lie this commercial is hysterical!!! I don't even drink Minute Maid but it made me want to go buy it! 

Reality TV - Let Us Pray!

Ok people this is FOR SURE Reality TV! haha I mean This show is on for two hours on Sunday!  WHAT THE HECK!!!

Ali Bridal Portraits - Oklahoma Photographer

Here is another Jared Wanzer Photography Top Model. Ali made such a beautiful bride! We met a few weeks before and did a bridal portrait session. We met at the Masonic Temple in Guthrie. It made for some great shots but afterward we went outside and just did a few and wow am I glad we did. 
Here are a couple samples. 

Tyler & Brook Engagement - Oklahoma Photographer

First off let me say that Tyler & Brook are Top Models. The camera loves them!!

Brook received my name and from my friend Wendy, they went to Duncan Brothers Hair School together. When Wendy told me about her I saw their pics on Facebook & knew that I wanted their wedding. Brook came to a bridal fair I did at the Cox Convention Center & booked their wedding!
We had so much fun, we went all over Bricktown, Will Rogers Park & ended at Lake Hefner. I am so glad I was introduced to them! They are two awesome people and I am glad to have them as friends now & looking forward to all the pictures to come :)

Oh, I wanted to tell the story how they met because I thought it was cool. They both went to different High Schools and they were at a basketball game, Brook sat on the opposing teams side and her friends dared her to go put her arm around Tyler. The rest is history.

Here are a few of their pictures...
