Chris + Jamie | Dallas Arboretum | Engagement Photographer

What a cute couple, tons of fun and loads of personality! Chris and Jamie were such troopers, this wasnt exactly the ideal weekend for bright, sun-filled, Springtime photos, but we had a blast despite the overcast, gloomy day! The Dallas Arboretum made a great location to take some Spring shots with lots of vegetation! Enjoy!









Leave me some love!!! Thanks for looking!!!

C'est la Vie!


So I was digging through some old photos for a friend of mine that needed some Paris pictures and decided these were too fun not to post! So enjoy a taste of my life when I lived in Paris! :)

This is one of my favorites! I love all the lights, this is in the middle of the Champs-Élysées, looking at the Arc de Triomphe.



Haha...so this one makes me laugh. This is in front of the Montparnasse Train Station near my apt. and this hoard of pigeons were just chillin in the grass and I got ready for a picture, then had a friend of mine run through them so they all took off like this.



And now here are just a few fun shots to look at:

The Thinking Man by Rodin



Paris from the Arc de Triomphe

The City of Light! Paris at Night!

Gargoyle from the rooftop of Notre Dame and that cathedral looking thing in the background is Sacré-Cœur - beautiful place to be and also an amazing view of the city.

From the rooftops

Some amazing street musicians...and yes we all danced in the middle of the street!


And the beautiful Notre Dame Cathedral


I hope you enjoyed your quick tour of Paris through my lens as much as I enjoyed reliving it all. Be looking for more of my past adventures occasionally popping up on my blog, as well as, some upcoming shoots I'll be posting. Thanks for stopping by!

Thiago in Caruth

Ok so I FINALLY have some images to upload to my blog! This is my friend Thiago 'Concert Pianist' Nascimento. We decided to hang out at SMU one evening this weekend and get some fun headshots for his website. I'd love to hear your thoughts, comments and critiques!!! Thanks everyone.

NOTE: All these images are completely unedited.
This is one of my favorite ones I think, I love the lighting on the organ and the light shining on his face.



Ok so I was kinda having a hard time with the lighting in this performance hall. What do you do when you have really harsh stage lighting coming from above and really no lighting on the face? (And I dont own any lighting that I can take with me) I used an external flash in the next image and this is how the lighting came out.


We are going back to reshoot soon. So let me know some thoughts before then! Thanks!
