at the Heights Yale Street Arts Market. Both photographers, Mesker-Garcia of Jersey Village area and Tremoulet of
Spring, formed FreshPhotography.org in the fall of 2006 to share their love for photography with the world. As part of
the plan, the pair began attending festivals like the first Saturday event in the Heights. Now having attended regularly

sharing it with others. They've been chosen as a pair to be featured because everything about them is professional: High
quality matted prints of their work, excellent booth display and a wonderful attitude. I see people return to their
booth each month!" Cohen also pointed out that its artists like Mesker-Garcia and Tremoulet that have been the drive to
