Joel Gutowsky Photography

Someone once said that a picture is worth a thousand words.  Though this is true, a photograph is much, much more.  A photograph is full of memories.  The memory of the moment.  The memory of the day.  The memory of a specific time in our lives.  The memory of a feeling of love.  The memory of a feeling of accomplishment.  The memory of a story.

Each day we live is another day added to our story.  It is my deepest desire to be much more than a photographer.  It is my deepest desire to be a story teller;  to tell the story of your wedding day, to tell the story of your love, to tell the story of your moments.

On this website you will see portions of many different stories.  Stories of love and wedding days.  Stories of senior years and the ones living them.  Stories of new life and families.

Please, enjoy your stay here.  It is my hope that you get caught up in the stories of these unique individuals.

Lauren – Class of 2011

This is Lauren.  I met up with Lauren and her parents out at Seabourne Creek park in Rosenberg for this photoshoot.  Lauren was great. She had an awesome smile and a great laugh.  She made this session easy.  Plus, she brought her chicken.  How awesome is that!

May I introduce to you…Lauren, class of 2011.

The Gaulkes – Hunter & Ashleigh (& Asher too!)

Meet the Gaulkes!  Hunter is a friend of my wife.  They are part of the same class in PT school.  For the past 2.5 years we have gotten to know these two pretty well.  Last Sunday afternoon I had the opportunity to do a shoot for them because very soon they will be welcoming little Asher into the world.

These two have a great story about how Asher got his name (no, it is not a combination of Hunter & Ashleigh like you may think) and the color teal.  But you will have to meet them so they can tell you the story.

Meet the Gaulkes!
