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 [...]

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 [...]
WARPED TOUR 2009
Yes, this is one of these posts. The ones where I preface my blog entry by apologizing for my absence and saying that it won’t happen again, but it’s bound to. At least I have a good excuse. For the past month now Ive been in Brasil with a 10-day visit to Africa. There are [...]
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 [...]
LIVE MUSIC FUN
I’m totally on a blogging spree today. Tonight my boy Stef aka P.O.S. came to town with Saosin and Underoath and another hokey new metal band that all the kids like. Stef is a hip-hop artist and it’s always lovely to see him open for punk/metal acts. All of the 15-18 year old kids smashed [...]
WARPED TOUR
I haven’t been doing a lot of shooting recently so naturally yesterday’s all day extravaganza at the 2008 Warped Tour was a welcomed return to shooting stills. My buddy Cameron and I made the trek out to Sam Houston Race Park, a horse racing venue that has recently started holding concerts at its location. Cameron [...]
SXSW 2008
Last Thursday my great friends Rathan, Chris and I drove to Austin in a spontaneous effort to take in a day-full of Austin’s yearly (and world famous) music festival South by Southwest. Ive been a few times in the past, however never have I totally indulged in the full two weeks of mayhem the festival [...]
