January was an amazing month...now what shall February bring?

WOW! This year already has one month under its belt! January was a truly amazing month. It started out with a photoshoot of Houston Police Chief Harold Hurtt for Monarch Magazine (photos coming soon) and midway through we had the Houston Powershoot (see below) and then the month ended with covering Dr. Maya Angelou (see below)!

It was a whirlwind month but now it's time for February...ok batteries are charged, memory cards are empty, let's get it done :D

The amazing Dr. Maya Angelou!!

I have a ton of photos that I am editing but some things just can't wait. I had the pleasure of photographing the truly amazing Dr. Maya Angelou tonight and wanted to share a few of the images. Dr. Angelou graced the city of Houston as part of the Brilliant Lecture series at the Hobby Center. It was an evening filled with amazing stories, some made you laugh and some made you cry but they all left you feeling blessed to be who and where you are in the life you have been gifted with! This was truly an event that I shall remember for years to come!

Houston/Dallas Powershoot 2009

Houston Powershoot 2009 took place on January 17 in Houston and January 18 in Dallas. It was a great turnout and we're definitely looking forward to the next event. Several outstanding photographers, makeup artists, and stylists came out to make this an event not to be missed! The shoot was for models and non-models alike, if you needed photos for whatever reason Powershoot 2009 was the place to be. Thanks to the following for making this event a success:

Here are a few photos of Deshay from Houston's Power Shoot 2009! We have worked together on a number of shoots and she is always a joy to work with. This is just a few of the hunderds of photos taken that day of all the attendees. I have seen some of the advanced shots from the other photographers and this was indeed a great event...if you did not make this one don't worry...it will be back soon!

WOW..2009 is off to a fast start!!

Well it's a new year, 2009...WOW...things are moving pretty fast this year. I have a ton of updates to do and I'm starting this year off right...I'm devoting more time to my blot! Things got away from me last year and I was not able to update as often as I wanted but this year things will be different....I'm a blogging machine!!

Let's see...so far I've shot the chief of police (with a nikon :D ), had a bunch of shoots with some outstanding models, participated in the Houston Powershoot (thanks Nina! it was a blast!!) and it's only Jan 18.

I have a ton of photos to update and I will post as I go...so stay tuned, 2009 will be a great blogging year...and watch out for my youtube commercials...oh the fun we're gonna have!
