The chances!

Man this weather has been throwing off my groove! So many reschedules and cancellations for my poor Groupon folks. Don't worry friends we'll get you taken care of, unless you're going for the dripping wet sexy look hahahah

The Stockyards? Maybe.....





So I had a shoot with Casey yesterday. A seasoned model ready to get back in the game while he puts himself through Nursing school. Of course I had my trusty sidekick Joey at my side ready to spring into action! We decided to shoot in the Stockyards but not in a typical westerny (if there is such a word) way. We tried hard to leave out any major landmarks or details that would give our location away. It is always fun to see people stop and watch us at work, even the giggly UT girls in their absurdly short shorts. All in all we had a good time and I'm very happy with the results!

Cheers!

follow up on Nick


Here is the photo of Mr. Speed Demon! Nick doing his thang down the court!

Trucking Along

I am pleased to say that so far everything has been going smoothly! I've been getting clients booked and accommodated as best as I can. Though I did strangely have a customer give me two different directions to spots that they wanted me to go and scout and give them my opinion on which one would be best for their shoot. Both locations are pretty far with one of them being like 40miles away. I can't even imagine what that would be like if I had to scout locations for every single customer! I mean don't get me wrong I've scouted and would scout a location(s) if it was a big advertising campaign or some other big budget shoot that afforded the budget for those types of services but on a $79 Groupon deal? It was just a strange request I guess.
So far I've met some very nice families and beautiful children. Had a great time shooting a lovely young lady for a dating site where she'll be using the photos. I hope they help her find that special someone! : )
I'm also looking forward to shooting a father/daughter on Harleys in a couple of weeks. Now that is going to be a blast! Might even have to bring out the big guns (profotos sorry nerd tech talk) for this one!

Nick the speed Demon




I had the pleasure of photographing a young athlete today for his senior portraits. He plays wheelchair basketball and boy can that kid move! We set up an awesome Commercial type shot after we got the more traditional Senioristic type portraits in Watuaga at Foster Village. I'm excited for Nick to see his shots and the result of his patience and hard work hahaha!! It also helps to have a cool mom! You rocked it today June!

I seriously can't stress enough how important it is to have a good assistant with you on shoots where you're using multiple cameras, lenses, and off camera lighting! Joey you're a blessing my friend! Anyway enjoy the teaser images ; )
