David + Haley | Slideshow Preview

I never post slideshows on my blog..not quite sure why..but here's a first. This one just feels special. David and Haley really wanted me to focus on being a journalist at their wedding on NYE. 4 hours. No portrait session. Just them. Their family. Their time together. I couldn't be more proud of the end result; and the fact that I think it fits who they are perfectly. Wonderful, wonderful people. Love you guys.

There is a certain part of this state of Texas that is quite magical to me. Recently, Laura and Warren's wedding brought me out this magical area to witness two of the most genuine humans I've photographed. Events like these make realize just how lucky I am to have the ability to gift what I can. To capture meaningful moments with my vision and they be liked is..well..really awesome. I appreciate every second of it.A wedding like this also makes me realize how important our friends and family around us are. Take some time, tell your wife, girlfriend, best friend that you love them. Hug them. Tell someone they look nice today. I know I will.

Lauren + Rian | Wedding

I truly fell into what I'm doing. It wasn't planned; nor thought out. It just happened. One of the most rewarding things I get to experience while photographing weddings is simple..LOVE. I know it sounds cliche, but its true. It's fing powerful. There was a moment during Lauren and Rian's wedding..after the ceremony that was one of most powerful moments I've seen shared between two people. Almost an out of body experience asking myself.."are you really shooting this?" All of me wanted to stop shooting..and just watch. Watch and take in. Experience it. Instead, I kept shooting..that personal moment was mine..and now I get to give it to Lauren & Rian. And THAT is why I do this.

I went to NASA | and LOVED it.

Growing up in the country, the thought of space was at my fingertips. Every night, I had a full view of the universe. I was the weirdo kid who would rather have ended up in space on Silver Surfer's board, rather than a spaceship; but either way I was absolutely fascinated by it...and still am.Thankfully, I am blessed to have several VERY talented, smart, and driven friends. Two of those guys include Victor and Jimmy; both top secret NASA nerds. I was invited to the Fifth installment of the NASA takeover last week; and am PUMPED to show you the photos from it. The guys take their day off to show us around..and watch us drool like little babies. Who knew that the buttons in the Russian Space Station look like Russian elevator buttons? Or, did you ever stop to think that while in space DUST in one of the major issues we have due to it not settling on the ground. Instead, we run the risk of constantly scratching our cornea due to the exposure. These are the things that guys like Victor & Jimmy are constantly trying to research and make better. Recreating how we live..all over again..IN F'ING SPACE!Enjoy.
