BACKSTAGE WITH PLANET FUNK
I spent some time this past Saturday afternoon with longtime client, Planet Funk Academy at the Wortham Center in Houston’s theater district as they prepared to take the stage. I have photographed the renowned dance academy for nearly 5 years now and although the faces have changed, the energy is still the same. During my [...]
BEST OF 2009
As we wrap up the first week of the new year I can’t help but reflect on the past year. There were struggles as there are with anything, but I’d be remised if I didn’t sit back and be thankful for the good things. I met a lot of great people, made a few new [...]

DESTINATION: QATAR
I’ve been pretty busy lately and have much to catch up on the blog world. I still need to update my blog with my stuff from Africa, Brazil and my story completed at the Eddie Adams Workshop last month, but this post is devoted to a rather interesting trip I took last week to Qatar [...]
MORE PORTRAITS!
I’ve had a rather busy week catching up on pretty much everything, toiling over contest entries and shooting. This week is the first week I think I’ve shot more stills than video with the new 5D II. First it was Sunday with Lacey and today it was Shawn. I had a noon assignment for the [...]
NEW PORTRAITS
Today I got to sleep in (not like that’s unusual or anything) and meet up with the lovely Lacey Grantz. I have done portraits of Lacey in the past and had a blast then, and this time was no different. She is a doll and so easy to work with. We shot a variety of [...]
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU
Its been almost a month since my last update. Wow. I’ve been busy, which is good I guess. Working on the movie, working on new internship things, and working on my brand new MacPro system. There’s nothing like 10Gb of RAM, 3 wide screen monitors and a fresh install of Final Cut Studio 2 to get the [...]
CLASS V
For those of you who have not heard, I have relocated (temporarily) to lovely Colorado Springs, Colorado to work with The Gazette, the award-winning daily here. It is an amazing photo paper and a great experience for me. It does mean being away from people I love, places I love and the general comforts of [...]
BE BOLD!
I shot this image a few weeks ago at an event for one of my dance clients. It was a Washington Mutual Home Mortgage Lenders national sales rally at the GRB and boy they really pull out all the stops for these guys. The stage looked like something that MTV would have built for the [...]
LAST MINUTE PORTRAITS
A good friend of mine and dancer for Planet Funk Academy, Rebekah, had paid me for some portraits many moons ago, however it wasn’t until now that our schedules allowed us to actually work some images. She called me late Wednesday night and I really was not ready for a shoot. I really wanted to [...]
