Back in September I had the pleasure of photographing four talented musical artists from Movement of Kingz Entertainment at Houston Skyline Studios in Houston’s Warehouse District. We had a limited time to shoot, but managed to pull off several different looks for the guys. The crew from Vicious Films was on hand and produced an awesome behind the scenes piece from the shoot. Check out the behind the scenes video and the resulting images inside!

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Today was a rather eventful day. I woke up early and knocked out a quick assignment for the Chronicle in Memorial Park then rushed back home to change and meet the Welling Films crew at Shawn’s. Our documentary, “The Messenger: 360 Days of Bolivar” was chosen as an official selection in the 2009 Boomtown Film [...]

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 [...]

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of spending some time with 82-year-old Mickey Stubblefield at his home in his hometown of Mayfield, Kentucky. Mickey is a former Navy veteran, Shriner Mason, Kentucky Colonel, and was also the first African-American baseball player ever to play in the Kitty Leagues. He receives an average of [...]

…or maybe it’s just jet lag. I haven’t blogged in more than a few days, mainly due to the fact that I haven’t really been shooting much save the lot of cheesy family snapshots with my new Canon G9. I had been meaning to buy a smaller Canon compact camera for some time and the G9 [...]
