Water

I don't always shoot models. Sometimes shooting something as simple as water is just as challenging and interesting. The image below is actually three images super-photoshop-glued together..Each on it's own RGB channel. It looked ok in color, but I switch B&W. I prefer it this way. As always click for higher rez version for best enjoyment.

Worlds Collide

I recently had the opportunity to unite two groups I've shot for in the past. Aromaz and Dallas E-Models to include Sheena Lee. Both are really awesome groups. Dallas E-Models had a shoot for new and old (not antique, but experienced!) models down at the 8 Lounge. Aromaz offered up their hair/MUA services to any of the girls whom needed it.

Although I could only stay for a bit, I was able to get a few shots with some really talented girls!

So, enough of babbling... ;)

And now for something different!

Stumbled off to the Panoptikon last Friday night. A buddy of mine was in from out of town and I had told him about this crazy freak show. He wanted to go, and I hadn't been there in months. So off we went!

To sum it up we saw plenty of craziness... Here's one shot I think sums it up well :)

Enjoy!

8 Lounge

Another fun shoot with the Dallas E-Model group and my friend Sheena Lee. We shot at the 8 Lounge in downtown Dallas.

I had just finished 3 hours of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, with 3 hours of sleep before that...after a 10 hour night shift...and the shoot ended right before my next shift started! Yes, if you can do the math, there wasn't much sleep those few days! It's all good, just drive through it all. I'm pretty good at handling issues, problems or whatever else life may throw my way!

I digress, please check out some of the GORGEOUS women below. They were both awesome! Life is easy as a photographer when your partner in crime is easy to work with.

(remember..you can always click on the images for the bigger version..highly recommended!)
