Baby Franco you were so sweet to photograph! Your parents are over the moon with your personality and growing their love for you by the day!

Grandma let me know how his dad had some reflections he journaled on the days he was at the hospital, which I think is so great! I think that journaling makes us better humans, better parents. We will put some of dad’s thoughts on the cover of Franco’s photo album and it will be a great start to family conversations over the years.

I can just imagine Franco’s parents face lighting up every time they tell the story about the day(s) when they were getting used to him and all the little cute faces he used to make, and an album and his dad’s journal to remind him how much he means to them and to the rest of his family.

Don’t forget to tell your babies how much you love them, no matter how old they are. Don’t forget to tell them the stories from before they were born, how it was to have them little. Hug them and kiss them before it gets awkward. Don’t let it get awkward!

I am no expert, but when I tell these stories to my five year old, I can tell he feels loved, he feels happy to know how much I loved him and wanted him before he was even conceived. I honestly think seeing his photos and hearing all the stories boosts his self esteem and sense of belonging because I see it in his face and his questions are of curiosity and wanting to know about why we wanted to have him.

Try it with your kids today and let me know how they reacted to your words of love and if they asked you more questions about how it was like when they were little! They’ll be out of your nest before your know it

Highlights from a wedding on a printed memory box.
Pro tip: Most people will think they will print on their own, but they never get around to it because life gets busy again. With my services, you’re able to include photo album design or wall art for your home. Your babies will enjoy seeing these photos and over the years, having these prints will be a reminder of how you felt for each other the day of the wedding and encourage you to continue to care for one another.

In most Hispanic families who decide to celebrate a Quinceañera, I would say most have not photographed their daughter since pre-school years. So just based on that, I think documenting the youth of your daughter at 15 is worth the investment; even if you decide against a reception, you can still opt in for the portraits because chances are she won’t get to do it again until high school graduation or when she gets married.

I say all of this to give you perspective into how often you actually invest in a true professional portrait and the worth it accumulates over time, is priceless. Not to mention the confidence boost she will feel seeing herself in a beautiful dress, hair and make up done. Remember how you used to feel as a teenager? The portrait session will definitely be an unforgettable experience as well as a self esteem booster for a lot of these young girls!

How often do you invest in professional portraits for your children?

Printing your family photos has never been so important, why? Because we take so many photos with our phone that they seem like they’re at the tip of our hands, but if anything goes wrong with technology or you lose it, or it gets upgraded you’re out of luck. In my opinion, it’s good to have both!

This photo, over the years will have special meaning to you. Those of us who have been married will know why. Our hands will not alway be touching because life has so many twists and turns, but you will always be reaching out for one another—will you be willing to reach back? The path will not always be clear, but it is during these tribulations your love and trust will grow.
What other interpretations do you have for this photo? Are these photos meaningful to you from your wedding?

Highlight’s from Ody and Willy’s backyard Mexican wedding, which had the sweetest details and one of my favorite flowers, bugamvilleas.

Everyone felt at home and it was mainly close friends and family, which I always love because you can feel how much people care for the couple.

Additionally, a nice perk about most backyard weddings is that a lot of the improvements you do to the backyard are there to stay, who doesn’t love that?

Me encantaron los detalles del pañuelo blanco en sĂ­mbolo de las personas fallecidas—en especial el papĂĄ de Willy—que ya no pudieron asistir a la boda pero estĂĄn presentes en espĂ­ritu, y sugerĂ­ podĂ­a ser utilizado para romper la pista al igual que las lucecitas, se utilizaron para abrir la pista ya que mi cobertura terminaba.

Creo que la boda saliĂł encantadora, me gustaron esos detalles mexicanos del cafĂ© en olla, los mazapanes, dulces con chilito, el papel picado, las luces, la comida sĂșper rica!

Se ven todos bellos y disfrutaron a lo mĂĄximo, dejaron las emociones fluir, mostrar lo quĂ© hay en nuestros corazones—que es lo importante en cualquier boda y lo que me deja a mi como fotĂłgrafa satisfecha! 🧡

Si tienes un evento orgånico, que viene del corazón, de tradiciones, y cultura en el area de Houston, déjame saber y con gusto lo fotografiaré!

DĂ©jame saber que te pareciĂł esta boda casera, cuĂĄles detalles te gustaron mĂĄs?

Sweet proposal in the Christmas lights at River Oaks in Houston. This is a step by step reaction and all while it was drizzling with rain đŸŒ§ïž it was pretty romantic! One of her requests when they had spoken about getting married was that 1) she wanted lights and 2) she wanted a photographer, I think he can call this “mission accomplished” and off to start a new chapter in their lives they go!

Elevate your wedding atmosphere with the help of Brandi at now available in one of inclusive packages!

If you’re the type that has a hard time coming up with decor ideas, but want your special celebration to feel romantic and elegant; hiring a wedding planner and designer is the way to go! Not to mention Brandi will also help with coordinating all of your day and people will know what to do because she will be there to guide them.

If you don’t want people bugging you on your wedding day asking you where things are, what to do next, how to set up, what order they should walk the isle in, definitely hire a coordinator and you will truly enjoy what’s happening at your wedding not organizing it as you go!

My baby boy. Enjoying these years as much as I can even though they also feel overwhelming at times! What I do to balance myself is I remind myself they will it always need me or want to spend time with me and that’s when I’ll be regretting not making a big effort to be present, fully present in their lives right now.

From our recent outing to the pumpkin patch! I was actually lookin forward to it after photographing another event where I saw other kids have a lot of fun picking up pumpkins!

I think my kids also had some fun picking at the dirt and moving pumpkins around and then returning them to the original spot lol

My kids are definitely wanderers and cannot sit still for very long, but I still managed to get plenty of good ones!

My Photography Project

My name is Marixa, I’m a portrait photographer, and take on select weddings through out the year. I specialize in creating tangible heirlooms for you and your family so that your children and grandchildren get to see your story first hand! My photography journey started with taking photos of myself as a form of self expression back in 2004. To be honest, I took photography as an outlet to boost my self esteem, which is probably still true to this day for many, not just me. Therefore, the name of Viva La Marx, Viva La Marixa, came along, because it was a way to remind myself that I needed to celebrate who I was, who I am. Today, I would like to use that thought of celebration, and be that resource to you. I want to get to know who you are, what you are celebrating and with who, what you are accomplishing, what is the milestone you want to capture on paper, because the memories you create with me get printed! This year, 2019, my goal is to create yet more meaningful portraits that find walls to be displayed in, books to be flipped on, memories that will put a smile on your face as the years go by. I want to include more grandparents in portraits, more candid moments, more flowers, more nature, love, laughter, hugs, kisses, your original ideas---even if they seem weird ---let’s have fun!
