Josh...

is a senior at JM. I had him in one of my classes last school year. Josh's goals in life are to be a firefighter, and live in New York City. I think it's just a matter of time till it happens. Josh's mom told us all kinds of stories (about Josh and family). She does makeup and hair for quite a few people. That's how we got to shoot all the eccentric sports cars (2 ferraris, a Bentley, and a Tesla). We started at a friend of the family's house. After shooting there we came back to the studio and used the garage, Texas flag, and inside the studio. Josh is a wrestler, and into MMA. We did some really cool images with his MMA stuff. I think he and mom will like the images, we certainly do... More images on the site, and click here to see a short video from the session. Enjoy....

Mitch...

is a senior at RHS. He's a funny, intelligent, and creative young man. He plans on studying sociology in college. He also loves to make music (mixing it on his computer). If things work out, he'll be doing research, helping people, and creating music somewhere in the mix. His friend Eddie came to help out during the session. Really, Eddie was to be the other wrestler (you did such a great job)... Did I mention Eddie has a 900 lb pig that he rides? Anyway, Mitch, was creative with his choices. We used the tree lined forest area, the immaculate sky, the studio, then finished up in the drive way for the wrestling images. I think he'll be pleased. Hopefully mom will too.

Full of Life.....

Amanda is a Senior at RHS. She came to us through our RHS Rep Rebekah. Amanda is a bundle of joy. She's bubbly, peppy, joyful, and has a contagious spirit. At only 4'11" you couldn't get any more personality, charm, and cuteness in some one 7' tall. The moment she came in the studio, we knew she was going to be a blast to work with... and she didn't disappoint. Amanda wants to help people in need, so after her higher education is finished, she plans on becoming a child psychologist or something to do with helping children and young adults. She definitely has the personality to cheer you up. We talked about her outfits and came up with the roller skates, pink tutu, and headphones. I was excited... it's not everyday you get to photograph someone in an outfit like that. Her second outfit was a casual country girl look. And lastly, she wore her radiant, red dress. We all had a fun time, and the images turned out fantabulous. Amanda, you are a very special young lady, don't ever forget the pencil analogy.

A Perla of Great Price....

Perla came to us wanting headshots... She's an aspiring actress. I actually had her in one of my classes years ago. We also did her sister's senior portraits a few years back. I love working with people from families we know. Anyway, Perla is a quiet, somewhat reserved young lady (atleast around us). We photographed in the garage at first, did a few outside, and finished up in the studio. The pics below are two of our favorites, simply stunning.... Perla, you were fun to work with (even though you say you don't like cameras) and we hope these images help land you that leading role in a TV series or movie some day... Our fingers are crossed...

Beauty in Black & White....

On our recent trip to the Coast I took this image. It looked great in color (before sunrise). I turned it into black and white and it looked phenomenal. The reflection in the retreating water drew my attention. There's something about photographing before the day really begins... it's just a reminder that our Creator knows what true beauty really is. Every day is a gift; time to draw us closer to Him.

AlexaRae...

...is a senior at JM. She's been a cheerleader since the age of 6, and plans on cheering as long as she can. Her future plans are to attend a major university and study medicine. I think she has the intellect and drive to accomplish her goals. We started in the studio with her cheerleading outfit, then made it out to the trees in her pink dress. We thought the umbrella would add some cute"ness" to the session, so we brought it and the images were some of our favorites. We finished up in her casual attire. AlexaRae and her mom seemed to have a good time, especially when we talked about and showed them the wolf spiders out in the field.

Baby Boy makes Five....

Lisa and Eric have been faithful clients of ours for years now... They were blessed with a baby boy two weeks ago and wanted us to document his arrival in the world like we did his two sisters (a few years back). So they brought him out to the studio for his newborn session. Being twelve days old, we'd capture his little features, baby soft skin, new belly button, fascinating eyes look with every bright light, and with his family. His two sisters are just gorgeous (5 and 3 yr old). The funny thing is that all of them looked identical as a newborn. We started outside, then the fierce wind and lightning storm came through so we went inside... there's nothing like trying to capture little children and having them say (every two minutes) "look mom, lighting". Anyway, inside we got some great images and I hope Lisa and Eric like 'em... I'm sure they will, because, "hey, they're of Eric Jr."... Feel free to leave a comment or two.... Congratulations EJ, welcome to this world..... you have a wonderful family. Enjoy.
