There’s no greater compliment than when someone tells you that they’ve wanted to work with you since your first meeting.  This is what Aria V told me the day of our session.  We met March 2020 during a photo walk that Aria arranged.  We also belong to a Facebook Group for women photographers here in Austin.  Aria mentioned in passing that […]

In May, the business “Selfie World” opened in Round Rock, Texas. It’s a business with at least 10 different scenes where you can take selfies, or hold photography sessions, and they’re popping up all over the US.  Bloggers like it because it they’re provided with several different scenses to create content for their social media platforms.  For photographers, it’s […]

When I became serious about photography, I would shoot everything.  Like many, I was excited about photography, and wanted to document everything.  At that time, I wanted to get better, so I decided to do two things.  The first was to take a photography class, and the second was to begin a 365 project.   The 365-project involved taking a […]

Earlier this year, Target carried this “Little House on the Prairie” type dresses.  Lots of people, including myself, thought that it was a joke.  I mean, really?  Who would wear something so ugly on purpose?  Some people decided to have photo sessions, and labeled them the “Target Ugly Dress Challenge”.  I liked the idea, and […]

The beginning of 2021 was hectic!  We came to the realization late in 2020 that my mother-in-law would need to live with us on a permanent basis.  The reality was hard to take.  Creatively, I wasn’t photographing anyone outside of myself, my mother-in-law, products, or food.  I needed to create an image that could be included at my exhibit […]

Fall has arrived in Central Texas.  The mornings are cooler, and there’s less humidity.  The time for sweaters and boots is fast approaching, and I am here for it.  Experiencing some semblance of fall weather is one of the things that I enjoy about living in here.  I’ve been able to wear sweaters and boots longer.  However, with COVID-19 still […]

Last weekend, I created some of my favorite images of 2020!   Since my Concrete Valkyrie session was successful, and a number of models wanted to be part of it, I decided to do another session.  I wanted it to be different from the concrete session, and knew that the session would be held in a park.  I scouted […]

On August 28, 2020, we lost Chadwick Boseman, Prince T’Challa, from colon cancer.  He was 42 years of old.  Chadwick was diagnosed with Stage 3 in 2016.  What’s amazing and inspiring is that over the last 4 years, this man created memorable movies including his role as the Black Panther.  While he fought his battle, we enjoyed his roles.  This […]

Over the last weekend in July, I had scheduled a Time for Print Session with a model from one of my Facebook groups.  I put out a casting call, and several models responded (Yeah me!).  I selected Allisa because I liked her look, and she has curves!  All too often, we don’t see a variety of body types […]
