    Las Vegas – SEMA 2009

    Warning: pretty car pictures ahead 🙂 My dad’s company is auto and truck accessory-related and as such we travel to Las Vegas every year for the world’s largest auto and truck aftermarket show – SEMA. I usually shoot way too many photos of way too many of the world’s finest autos and trucks – this year was no exception and I’ve posted a few from the week we were there. This year’s show was dominated by the new Mustangs: and 2010 Chevy Camaros: The Camaros were everywhere! In the evening, we’d stroll the Strip. After I got home I noticed how much these reminded me of my “at night” series…

    Beaumont Family Portraits – The Callas Family

    I was contacted recently by the Callas family here in Beaumont to photograph their family – a mutual friend (Mark Thompson – an excellent custom interiors person if you’re looking) had referred me. Their 2 beautiful daughters, as well as grandparents, and an aunt, uncle and cousins would be in attendance. Here are a few from that evening – most everything was photographed in the backyard of their beautiful home in Brownstone – first up are daddy’s little girls: A little individual daddy time 🙂 I didn’t shoot them all in black and white 🙂 , here their cousins join in for a little dip in the pool: Ray, his…

    Lauren’s Maternity

    Little Sophia will be here in about a month and the days are flying by. 🙂 When Lauren, from It’s a Hit! event planning, inquired about getting some maternity portraits for Sophia’s pending coming out party, I agreed in a New York minute. Lauren is well-known for her beautiful work in event and wedding planning and interior design and I was looking forward to the session. Here are a few from the day, including daddy Shane. 🙂 I *love* the yellow and black french-inspired design Lauren had put together for Sophia’s room, she better like Paris, I have a feeling she’ll be spending some time there 🙂 Lauren thought it…

    All Growed Up!

    Elise turned 7 months a couple weeks ago and got her first tooth yesterday! You can’t really see it yet :p , but it’s definitely beginning to poke through those tender gums (which makes for not much sleep at night 🙁 ). Anyways, she’s also beginning to pull up to a standing position, which means mama and daddy had to lower her bed… right after the following images 🙂 I’m not biased at all, but isn’t she just the cutest baby, in maybe ever? 😀 We’re headed to the beach this weekend and will have some pictures of David then – he’s becoming quite the grown up little boy himself…

    Summer Fun – YeeHaa!

    🙂 Another break for cuteness, then more weddings, engagements and bridals 🙂 David took me to Minute Maid Park to the Astros game this past weekend for a little father-son Father’s Day hang out. He was ready at a moment’s notice to catch any foul balls hit our way: You can see his Uncle Jerry over his left shoulder, who was on national TV singing God Bless America during the 7th inning stretch a few moments earlier. Good times. 🙂 Today we headed down to Port Neches park with David and Elise, their parents, Nana, Papa and Uncle Jerry. Baseball, hot dogs, and a classic Chevrolet Corvette were there, but…

    Summer Fun!

    Just a couple images of the cutest kids in the world 🙂 Elise is eating her hand in anticipation of some of her Nana’s birthday cake and ice cream at her party last night: She’s growing like a weed and is starting to sit up by herself and roll over now 🙂 Here David is playing down at the Port Neches Park water park: If that doesn’t look like a little boy having the time of his life… 😀 Tomorrow, we head over to Galveston for Eric and Christine’s engagement session on The Strand and the beach, we have a trash the dress session later in the week, then we…

    The Sturrock Family

    Nothing’s better than a toothless grin to start off a crack-a-lackin family session with the Sturrock family this past weekend: Big brother Gage and big sister Alex joined in the fun in Claiborne Park in Vidor. We moved to the 4-way see-saw and Gage practiced his surf skills. The weather was perfect for a family photo session – some clouds here and there to cool us a bit and sun peaking through the branches to give great lighting like this: and this (Luke has the remnants of eating that blue chalk in most of his photos 🙂 ): We played catch before moving on to Caldwell Park in Beaumont for…
