An old monitor and a scan of an ultrasound later…

Thanks for stopping by.

I needed to shoot some detail shots of Tyler’s tattoos (posting soon!) for his tattoo artist and I figured I’d do some portraits while I was at it.

Corey cut off all his hair and so I snapped a few shots.  That was a nice day.

I hear this guy has a sweet bike.

An old friend (who also happens to be a photographer) was in town in July and I wanted to play with my new octabox so he kindly modeled for me (I made him) and here are the results.  We only shot for a few minutes because of the heat/humidity/mosquitoes but I like the colors and the texture of the fences in the background.  By the way, I just wanted to mention that Cory came up with these pensive, thought provoking poses all on his own. :)

Both of my grandmothers were at my father’s house this past May after my college graduation and I realized as they were on their way out that it would be a good opportunity to snap a couple of pictures of the both of them since they were both dressed up for the occasion.  Even though I only had a few minutes with each of them, I feel like the images I walked away with were screaming representations of each of their personalities.  It may not be obvious to a stranger or maybe even another family member but I think that each portrait captures the essence of both of them.  Fun Fact:  the grandmother in the white shirt had 17 children (yes, I have lots of aunts and uncles).

While my girlfriend and I were visiting her parents in Dallas this past May, we had a little photo shoot which consisted of us, a tripod, and the timer on the camera.  It was a bit harder than I had imagined but I’m happy with how everything came out.  Just for the record, I’m not crazy about having pictures of myself on here but I thought since it wasn’t just me, it was okay.  Thanks for reading!

Even though she was cute and awfully photogenic, Audrey was a bit of a challenge but thanks to her nanny who she found to be very funny, we got some great images.  Here are a few of the ones Audrey’s mother picked out.  As a side note, something tells me that all of the women reading this are going to find this post particularly cute.

Fun Fact: I unintentionally shot this entire shoot on a 50mm lens.  I don’t know if that’s good or bad but I just felt like that was what every situation and how I wanted to shoot it called for.
