One video I will never be in....

I once attended a wedding where the photographer was climbing through the bushes behind the preacher while snapping shots. My wife and I were talking about how unprofessional the guy looked and we continued to focus on the photographer instead of the wedding but this video is just ridiculous. While I do take a journalistic approach, I always have good communication with the videographer and let them know where I will be during the wedding. I really like the part where the (I assume) wife bumps the preacher out of the way to get the close up ring shot.

Take A Look At This Video

As always, I have to show the latest pride and joy! Abby at 18 months old, available light against a textured wall.

A Weekend Off And Valentines Leftovers?

With a weekend to relax...oh, who I am I kidding, a weekend to run errands when it's too cold to get out and do anything is more like it. So what's a guy to do when he has nothing to take pictures of? Leftover Valentines flowers of course.... who needs Roses when you can get Tulips and Irises.

Meagan & Derek did swing by and pick up some proofs to pick out their engagement picture for the invitations and just waiting to see which one it will be. I think I know, but we'll see.

Glad to see Modano could score another goal in Torino, although we ended up losing and it doesn't look good for Team USA in the hockey department! Watching all this skiing really makes me wanna run to New Mexico one of these weekends.

Meagan & Derek's Engagement Shoot


Well, it turned out to be the windiest and coldest day of the last few months when we met at TWU (Texas Womens University) where Meagan is attending school. I was introduced to Meagans Mom & Dad and look forward to seeing them cut the rug at the wedding. We got some great shots even though we were freezing, Derek & Meagan were some real troopers braving the cold.

Something New

After spending an evening with Gary Fong, the creator of StoryBookWeddings.com and probably the most succesful wedding photographer in the world, I am following his advice and starting a blog. So check it out, your pictures will be posted here after the shoots for all your friends and family to see. This will result in some new offerings and the way they're offered, but will be for the best once I get it all sorted out.

It's a blog, so tell me what you think.
