BEST OF 2011
Ive been in Japan for the past few weeks so the annual “Best Of” post has been postponed until now. 2011 seemed to come and go in a breeze. Check out my brief year-end wrap up and 100 of my favorite images made in the year 2011 after the jump.
SUMMERFEST 2011
It seems like it’s been forever since last year’s Free Press Houston Summerfest and corresponding post. (Click here to visit last year’s blog post and relive Summerfest 2010) This year sort of snuck up on me. Regardless of my personal thoughts on the actual acts themselves, I’m proud to say that each year since its [...]
SXSW 2011
As I mentioned in my post last week, the past month or so has been crazy. A lot of actual shooting has given way to a lot of time editing and while I still have a ways to go to catch up (do we ever really catch up?) I wanted to pause for a second [...]
BEST OF 2010
2010 was a crazy year filled with lots of surprises. If you were to ask me a year ago, where I would be in a year, I most likely wouldn’t be anywhere near the reality of it all. Check out my annual, end-of-year, post filled with my favorite images made throughout 2010 here.
FEATURED IN PDN MAGAZINE
Back in October, I was browsing through my issue of PDN (Photo District News) magazine and came across an ad that was promoting one of their contests. I have never really paid much attention to contests, the few that I have entered in the past have been in the photojournalism realm and most of the [...]
SUMMERFEST 2010
After 2 long days of live music at the 2010 Free Press Houston Summerfest at Eleanor Tinsley Park in Houston, Texas, I think I need a nap. Over 70 bands performed in total. Among the artists I photographed were, Girl Talk, Ra Ra Riot, Stars, Slim Thug and Bun-B, The Flaming Lips and more. Some rain on Sunday dampened the mood a bit, but everyone was in good spirits and had a great time.
SXSW 2010
It’s almost been a week since I departed Houston for Austin and the live music mecca that is South by Southwest, yet it still feels like I’m recovering. It’s mostly the severe seasonal allergies, but the journey wore me out, like it does every year, but like every year, I had a blast and saw [...]
CHRON FAVS 2
This is my second installment of my 2 part favorites post highlighting my favorite images taken during Houston Chronicle assignments. This post contains images from roughly mid-May 2009 through this past weekend taken from my Houston Chronicle assignments only. I am a regular contributor to my hometown newspaper and get to shoot all kinds of [...]
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 [...]
A SHOW AND A WIN
My second proper Houston live music show of 2009 crept up on me quick. I had no idea there was a show I had planned on attending tonight, but thankfully the Rockets were playing in LA, which meant the game didn’t start until 9:30pm CST. That gave Chris and I enough time to go to [...]
SXSW 2009
Well, this year I actually applied for media credentials in time for SXSW which meant it was justified to spend more than a day or two in Austin during the annual South by Southwest festival. SXSW has a film and interactive aspect that I really wanted to make it out to especially since I am [...]
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 [...]
A FEW ODDS AND ENDS
Not much going on tonite so I decided to mess around with a few new items. First off, I have been intrigued by the Lensbaby products for some time and since the paper has a few of the newest generation model 3G’s, I thought I’d test one out. Since the paper uses Nikon cameras exclusively I was forced [...]
