Portrait of a Director
As a member of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce (a great organization!), I get to meet and interact with a lot of great people in the area. Recently I met the director of a local university and had the opportunity to work with him to create a portrait that he can use on his web site. These shoots are always fun and give me an opportunity to get to know people and their work a little bit. He has taught in several places around the globe, and has come here to open the new campus of the National American University in Georgetown. We have some amazing educational opportunities here in Central...
Read MorePortrait of a Horse
I have a friend who owns a horse that she rides and I wanted to do a little practice photographing them together. We spent a fair bit of time allowing Bella to get used to my flash and my presence with the camera, and she eventually warmed up to me and allowed us to make this photograph. The sky wasn’t so beautiful that day, so I wasn’t able to really use much in the way of riding shots, which was my initial thought about what I was there to work on. We did do a bunch; I just don’t really love them because of the sky. But I love the emotion between Donna and Bella in this...
Read MoreSarah’s Bridal Portraits
Sarah and Ben are married! We photographed Sarah back in December to create a bridal portrait, but it’s been kept under wraps until now so the dress would be a surprise. The wedding was at the Mansion at Judges Hill, which has lots of places for great photography. What a beautiful location. We’ll have more after we process the wedding images. We wandered around to several locations on the property and captured so many great portraits that I find it difficult to pick just a couple, but here are a few from her...
Read MoreFamily at Home
I had the opportunity last week to photograph a neighbor’s family at their home. Her mom and dad were here for a visit and they wanted some portraits of the four of them, along with the family dogs. So we went out in their back yard to capture some moments with all of them together. There is still a little green around and we used it to frame the setting. It was great fun! It is always a blessing to be with a family as they celebrate being together. Here is one of the shots I really like; I love how the two dogs are looking in my general direction ...

It was a really cool thing to be with Tim, Dee and their first baby. Noah was very cooperative and we were able to capture some great portraits for the family. It is especially awesome to be around a brand new baby now that Hannah is pregnant again; we all have this to look forward to again! Here’s one of the portraits of Noah that I really...
Read MoreFall Portraits
We met Doug and Cindy at the Memorial Park in Round Rock a few weeks back, just in time to catch some beautiful Fall colors! They brought their three dogs and we had a grand time photographing them around the park while the dogs enjoyed the day and running around checking everything out. Here is one of my favorites; we can see the trees in color behind and even the reflections on the surface of Brushy...
