terra and eddie-engagements

Terra and Eddie are engaged! Loved these pictures. Had a lot of fun with these two! We took pics around an old historical building in down town Fort Worth. It used to be a public market of sorts, but since has been fenced in because part of the building has burnt down (!), not cool, it's one of my personal favorite landmarks of the city. But, we worked around the chain linked fences to get these and lots more great shots.

Oh man.

Yeah, so: Logged on to do some time in the bloggersphere and the site's image upload is down for the next two hours due to maintenance. Nooooo!! So, um, Terra and Eddie's awesome engagements will have to wait a bit. Until then let me hint at a few up and coming blog posts: Two weddings. Both very different in scope. One took place out in Livingston, Texas at a neighborhood park surrounded by woods and a lake. Tiki torches and Christmas lights lit the place up while the bride got down underneath the gazebo. How fun is that?! Next took place in downtown Dallas and the First Presbyterian Church, a beautiful church with this awesome stained glass dome that glows over the congregation. Amazing architecture out front. Beautiful pictures of the bride and groom! Very awesome Church! Very awesome couple! So much more to come...!

krista and ano

Sorry I've been falling so behind on my blog posts, been crazy busy! I finally found the time to post these of Krista and Ano! Great friends of mine who are getting married next year-and guess who the photographer is? No. Not him, ME! We had a great time walking around UTA, the campus they met, then dated, then proposed or got proposed to on. It was a beautiful day, I hope they enjoyed it half as much as I did.

So, this last shot is a huge fav of mine. I love the look and feel of the entire setting. Like some hot and sultry dive found outside some villa somewhere hot and sultry. Okay, so stereotypes and locations totally escape me right now, but wherever it is I'm thinking about, this looks like it was taken there! I added a cross-process filter to give a bit more of a fashion edge, but I love this shot in any light.

arts goggle

Arts Goggle, the art fest with the funny name. Tomorrow I'm showing some recent work at the SouthSide art fest in Fort Worth, my home away from home. The set up was today, spent a couple hours hanging frames and tweaking the background, moving easels around, and working on my space. The venue is Thumbtechs 201 South Main Street. It's some computer tech company with a really nice building and an impressive glass conference room. The people there were kind enough to open their doors to local artists, those of us who can't handle a lot of time in front of a glowing monitor, to show our craft and schmooze with the community a bit. I thank them for letting us in. It's October the 1st today! And I couldn't think of a better way to kick off the fall season than this. Here's a couple of shots of the venue and my set up. If you're a Fort Worthian and can come by, you should. I hope to see you there.
