This session I was sooo looking forward to shoot. Over the past 2 years my wife and I have gotten so close to this family and I feel blessed to be able to capture their love, joy and their joy for worship music.

Merry Christmas & Cheers to a silent Night

The many faces of the Adams tribe. They keep us going and always bring a smile to our face.

LeRodrius and Shameka were so incredibly fun to work with. We spent their anniversary session walking around the Oyster Creek park in Sugarland,TX, and I loved how they interacted with one another……..

It so much fun to shoot this little man. He was such a trooper and enjoyed getting to use all the props he had. I honestly think, he just wanted to putting on his Spider-Man costume. Thanks to Ra'Shunda Adams for the great concept.

What a fun time I had doing headshots with @nusaybahnick. So many jokes that happened that shoot.

Its been a while since I have posted to the blog. I started shooting for my church and it has been a great learning experience. The power of telling a story so the world can see Jesus has been an awesome experience. Here are a few highlights from the past 6 months.

I came across a old photo of my dad playing the saxaphone and was intrigued in recreating the image using low key fundamentals

Exploring one light setup from above. With the movie black panther being in the theater, I wanted to create a portrait to reflect the excellence this movie portrayed.

Every so often, I work on honing my lighting techniques and bring in a fellow photographer to work on different techniques. As the title says we are exploring the clamshell lighting technique.

Finally got to take some portraits of an actress who happens to be my niece during the Thanksgiving Holiday. Wasn’t able to get outside to shoot and was still able to get some good shots.

The many faces of the Adams tribe. They keep us going and always bring a smile to our face.

Since I am at work most of the time, I thought I'd take some shots of the environment I am around. I work in sports television and I took these shots with no extra lighting. I wanted to get the feel of the environment in it natural lighting.  

This week I did not know what to really shoot. Then I was driving past this and thought this was exactly what I needed

This is was tough as well. I was looking for an open area where I could paint a picture of calm place where someone could mediate. I came across this park in Katy, TX that was just the type of place. After I took a few shots I stopped, prayed and spoke to God.

I took different portraits for this weeks challenge and they did not come out the way I wanted. Went to the park with my son and saw him climbing down the spiral thing and quickly took a shot and it came out nicely I might add.

I am a little late posting this photo mainly because my schedule has been busy and it took me a while to find something that I like candy wise. Then it hit me in the face, it was right in front of face every time I watch a movie.

Another tough week to be creative. It did not hit me until I sat down to a glass of merlot. As I poured my glass all I could think about was the smoothness, boldness of the wine. For this challenge I didn't use actual wine, I used water and food color.

This was pretty tough this week. Had to scout out a landscape that was different than the typical outdoorsie type landscape. I was looking for a Cityscape that was interesting. This is what I came up with. I would love your thoughts.

At the end of last year I realized that I had not picked up my camera that often. I decided this year to develop my skills more and embarking on the Dogwood 52 week challenge. Each week I will have a specific type of portrait I would need to take and I will post so you can see the development of my portraits……

It was my extreme pleasure to take portraits with Lisa. She recently received her MBA from Texas Woman's University in Houston, TX………….

It was fun to shoot some graduations portraits with my nephew. The entire family is proud of his dedication to baseball and his studies.

My first Self portrait. “A Man with Many Hats”. The idea I came up with this photo was to show the many layers and hats i use. It took me about 35 minutes to do this portrait.
