Downtown Experimental Shoot
I've been so busy with school and work that I haven't been able to just go out on a shoot for fun. So, I helped gather some local Lubbock photogs, two models, and we headed downtown for a fun photo adventure. Special thanks to Lain, Rob, Erin, Charlie, Kyle, Matthew, Alison, Charmain, Megan, and Brian for all your help! I hope you all had just as much fun as I did. Here's some of my favorite images from the shoot.

Bryan + Brenna [e] session
Okay, check this hot couple out! The bride-to-be and I graduated high school together, and a few months ago she called me and told me she was engaged to Bryan! She asked if I would take their engagement photos in Dallas, so I drove out there for our shoot last week. I had so much fun working with them both, so now you get to see all the fun stuff! Here's a few of my favorite images from their shoot. Enjoy!

Allison
Hey everyone!
I think I'm finally finished with all my summer traveling excursions ... considering school starts on Thursday, I should hope I'm done! Time to update the blog.
These photos are of this awesome artist and friend of mine, Allison. She is an art major at Texas Tech and asked me if I were interested in doing an "artist trade" with her. Of course I said YES! She used her amazing gifts to paint me a beautiful painting (see image below) and in trade I took her out on a photoshoot. We both were able to capture beauty in our own medium and share it with the other artist. I know I had a wonderful experience working with Allison, and would love to trade things more often. If anyone else is interested in something like this (does not have to be "art" related) PLEASE CONTACT ME! I love capturing the beauty of others, plus I just think we'd have a lot of fun, so hit me up!
Okay, enough of my rambling ... here's my favorite of Allison's images, as well as the killer painting she made me. Enjoy!

Danielle
Here's the very talented Danielle -- she's a Communication Design Major at Texas Tech and one of my close college friends. She and I just finished design internships together at Malouf's Fine Apparel in Lubbock. Danielle is graduating in December and currently working on her portfolio. She asked me to take some fun head shots for her website, so here are a few of my favorites! Enjoy!

Gary + Jordan
More photos to post! I have had so much fun this summer with my Photography class in Junction, Texas, and lots of traveling that I haven't had time to sit down and post my favorite photos.
THIS WILL CHANGE! :-)
Check out this hot duo -- Gary and Jordan. These two are some of my most favorite friends in the world. Not only are the both brilliant and beautiful, but they are extremely talented swing dancers! I was given the opportunity to take photos of them both before Gary makes the big move to Houston, Texas, to attend medical school in the fall. Here are some of my favorite shots!

Behind on Posting ...
wow. I am not very good about keeping up my blog posts. I apologize! I had the privilege of photographing my friend Lain of Lain Eubank Photography. She is such an inspiration to me not only with her work, but her love for beauty and life. What an incredible girl! Here's my favorite images from Lain's shoot -- enjoy!

Sneak Peek!
Sorry for the delay in posting! We just got back on Friday night from a 5-day field trip to South Texas. We had no internet (it was a great break!) so now I have a LOT to catch up on. Here's a few images to keep you all satisfied until I finish documenting the past week's adventures.
Enjoy!

[day one and two] 377 Falls & Wild Bill's Ranch
Welcome to Junction, Texas! These signs are everywhere as students arrive at the Texas Tech University Junction Campus for intersession classes. This is where my adventure begins. I am taking a 15 day photography class with Professors Wyman Meinzer and Jerod Foster, two of the most outstanding photographers in the State of Texas. The class consists of 11 students, 2 professors, a 5-day field trip, film and digital cameras, 25+ rolls of film per person, and an average of 12,000 images being shot in total.
I started off the class on May 6th, my 22nd birthday. With final projects wrapping up and celebrations to be had, Junction couldn't have come at a better time. I tried my best to pack smart, but you never know what you will need on a 15 day adventure with Wyman! Not only will we be shooting around Junction, but this trip includes a 5-day field trip to Independence Creek, which is in Terrell County 22 miles south of Sheffield, off Interstate 10 on Highway 349. So after packing up my car and mailing out the last of my client's photo orders, I headed down highway 87 towards Junction.
I arrived on campus at 5 PM, just in time to check in and move into the "Hummingbird Cabin", my new home for the next few weeks. I'm sharing this with all my lovely, amazing photos gals - Erin, Santasha, Kori, and Joanna. Erin was previously assigned to the outdoor, non AC units, but when her other cabin members decided to stay up until the wee hours of the morning playing cards the first night, she payed for AC and moved in with us! We usually get up around 5:30 every morning, much earlier than most other classes, so she definitely wouldn't have had enough sleep living with those crazy girls. Our cabin is connected with a classroom - a Nature Poetry class to be exact. Since we're usually off campus during their class times, we don't run into them, but it's strange because their room is joined with our bathrooms ... could get awkward at some point!
At 6 PM the first day, we had dinner and a welcome meeting in the dining hall, then met up with our class at 7 PM Wyman's class meets in the Academic Building near the front of campus. We grabbed our seats, checked out film and light tables, then watched in awe as Wyman shared with us some of his photographic abilities. He ran slide after slide up on a projector and told us all the details about each shot he took - everything from the history of the land to the exact lens and shutter speed he took each image with. We all want to grow up and be like Wyman some day. I hope I'm speaking for everyone when I say that THIS GOT US PUMPED!
We all returned to our cabins awaiting the start of our first day out in the water. We woke up at 5:45 AM, packed our gear into the "mystery van" and headed out to the 377 Falls at 6:15 AM. We arrived about 30 minutes later and hiked down a rocky hill to reach the falls. The sun had not quite come up yet, so each of us waded around the water to find the perfect vantage point to photograph the sunrise. Unfortunately, our beautiful sun was blocked by haze and clouds, diffusing the light too much for what we had planned. Some students shot a few rolls, but most of us took this as a learning opportunity. We got out our digital cameras and played around with angles, lighting, and shutter speeds instead of wasting that on a roll of film.
I've included a few of my favorite shots from that morning. Since this class is primarily film based, I haven't had a chance to shoot a whole lot of digital, but I am going to make it a point to from now on. That way my blog posts aren't totally delayed since I'd have to scan in my slides once they are processed.
Well, it's lunch time so I'll have to finish up this post later. The title includes "Wild Bill's Ranch," which needs its own post all together ... you'll see why! We are going out to this ranch again this evening in hopes of getting some midnight full moon shots of the Llano River. I'll include some digital images and all sorts of crazy stories when we get back from that tonight. Enjoy these photos until next time!

Lovely rocks :-)
Here is Erin Edwards: she is a great photographer and so HARDCORE! The very first morning we were out there, I snapped this image of Erin as she submerged herself in the 377 Falls to get that perfect shot.
