chalk dreams

This is a personal project I have been working on for a while. I guess it all started about a year and a half ago with some chalk and a sidewalk and just went from there. During FotoFest I am having a show with a friend of mine Warren Harold at the Havens Center. I always love to participate in some kind of show during fotofest because it is just such a great time and the energy is awesome. I mean, a FULL MONTH of photography, all over the city. It is really awesome, especially if you like to go to art openings.  I may even participate in reviews this year, we will see.....

Shanda + David - Austin Engagement session

So one foggy recent Sunday I head down to South Congress to play with Shanda and David, an awesome Austin couple. I LOVE soco and would move there in a heartbeat if I thought I could afford a nice place and make rent, but for now I will just have to drive and dream, which is pretty cool too.

This is one of my favorite locations to take photos, it is so colorful and has great textures, smells and sounds.

I can't wait for their wedding either. It is going to be some kind of eye candy I know. 1000 origami paper cranes.....can't wait.

Bevin - River Oaks Country Club bridals

A few weeks back I got to play with Bevin on a Sunday and take some bridal portraits for her upcoming wedding ( which was this past Saturday- photos from that later). I was not able to show them until now because we wanted to keep her beautiful Monique Lhuillier dress a secret until the big day. Isn't she gorgeous?! We chose River Oaks Country Club as our location because it is so filled with light and I absolutely LOVE the hand painted wall paper.

Bevin was a great subject to have for so many reasons, but the best was that she let me do whatever I wanted and we got to get some great and creative photos for her. Bevin is a photographer as well as the interem directer for the Houston Center for Photography, so I brought along my big ole crown graphic to use as a prop. I also got to use my home made tilt shift lens, which I am so in love with. I think I am going to have to name her soon. I was thinking Georgia or Gertie.....

FYI, I shot these for D. Jones Photography and David and I both shot the wedding!

The Lamb Awaits

Today Sadie and I went to see Spike Jonze's version of "Where the Wild Things Are." This was my absolutely.favorite.book.ever. when I was a kid.My daughters have always loved it too but I have to say that I was kind of lukewarm about the movie. Don't get me wrong, I thought Max Records portrayal of Max was great and he was just about super adorable, but I just felt so much like it could have some how been more....fantastical maybe? The monsters also seemed a bit neurotic for my taste....I dunno. I guess the book was pretty short and had not much of a plot, so I know Mr. Jonze had to just make it up...but yeah.

Anyways, a photo....

Clara senior portrait- Galveston

I took these pictures of Clara this summer. She lives in Montana but had lived in Texas when she was younger and wanted something a little different from her friends. We had special zpermission to use the Elissa Tallship as our backdrop and then after that we headed down to the beach for some sunset shots.
