Giovanni

So I spent Friday walking around downtown with Giovanni as we shot his Senior Portraits. We had a blast and got some great shots out of it. I love when my clients wear the color red. It just brings warmth to their images.

Barbie's Bridal Session

I'll admit it was a warm afternoon when we shot this. Special thanks to Barbie for being such a great sport. I'm excited & look forward to the wedding.

Dawn & Tj

I had an amazing Engagement Session with Dawn & Tj. They are the cutest couple... so in love and so much fun. We had a great time walking around down town acting like turists. Here's a little sneak peek guys. Thanks again & I can't wait until October!

Christina

Another great senior session. Tina thank you for allowing me to capture this milestone moment in your life. Congrats & best of luck!

Oh to be Forever Young

This past Saturday I followed some Madison high school seniors as they prepared to attend their senior prom. How things have changed since my prom. Special thanks to all the seniors & parents who allowed me to follow along. As promised the individual images are on my site.

Here's a sneak peek of their images set to the class song by Jay-Z.

Ruben

This weeks senior was lots of fun & up for anything. Extremely talented I had to get some shots with all his metals. Watch out Michael Phelps! Get to know Ruben as he answers my Senior Survey:

This young man has a great personality and no fear. Thanks for being such a sport in the cold water Ruben.

Christopher

Friday I had the pleasure of photographing an amazing young man. Born at only 2lb 2oz., doctor's prepared his family for the worst. It's a miracle he survived his first few days. As we talked during our session I was moved by his story. He's truly an inspiration. Here are a few of his answers to my Senior Survey:

A: I conquered some of my fears this year. I'm proud of my accomplishments.
Q: What do you like best about you? I'm a hard worker & a nice guy. I try to put other peoples feelings before my own.

Sharp Dressed Man!

A few of my favorites from my follow up session with Jayce. He's a year now and as stylish as ever. He may look serious but looking this good is serious business. Thanks Jayce & Vanessa... always a pleasure.

Vanessa

Don't Hate Me Because I'm Beautiful!

I guess being this beautiful you get used to people wanting to take pictures of you. I was amazed as he sat by & allowed people to get upclose & personal shots from all angles.







 

Diamond In The Rough

I thought these made for unique ring shots

An Amazing Afternoon

My grandmother & aunt have an amazingly tranquil garden. I took Jonah & Jayden over for a visit and got a chance to snap some photos of their beautiful flowers. Enjoy!

Had a silly morning with these two & the camera. I played around with some settings & post production effects. I like the way they came out. There's a real gritty look to them yet the detail of the image isn't compromised. They remind me of old 60's pictures. What do you think?

I've got a few sessions coming up that I'm excited about along with a new lens. I can't wait. Stay tuned!

How can you say "no" to this face?

I've been crazy busy which is great but I haven't really had a chance to post any new images.
Since I'm currently experiencing a rare quiet moment I decided to catch up.

Last weekend we took a drive to Laredo to help my sister move to A&M. A road trip with the Jbro's isn't always a good mix but it turned out to be a beautiful day. Here are a few images from our outing. When shooting the Jbro's I've got to have my camera on motor drive

This is my handsome stepson, Jr. He's a great model because he loves the camera. I took this
with available light at 2.8 and a black backdrop.
