Round Two.






Baby Grayson is about to make his debut and I was lucky to have the opportunity to shoot Krista and Jared for the maternity pictures. Ray was a little spitfire, but any time baby Grayson was mentioned, she was all about what was going on. It took some gummy bear bribing, but all in all she was a great sport. The wait has begun for Grayson's arrival. Stay tuned. Enjoy.

Coming To An End.



I know that it has been a while since I have posted anything. I am in my FINAL semester of school, and things have just been crazy trying to get everything done. But, with graduation right around the corner, final portfolios are coming up and I have started working on mine. Im taking a large format photography class, which is a film class, and it has been putting me through my paces. As always though, I am learning more about photography than I ever thought that I would know, and it reminds me why I even pick up my camera. These are the first two shots I have done for my film class final, and I am in love. Joe and Sarah were the first two models I had sit for me, so that I could use them as test rats for the ideas I had for this. They were good sports as always and once again have given me great images to add to my portfolio. Thank you, Joe and Sarah, for getting ready at the last minute for me. Your guys' willingness to be ready at a moments notice is the reason that I am able to have shots like these.
I started school in 2009 with nothing more than my DSLR and the drive to learn more about my craft. I cant tell you how many times school has made me laugh, cry, scream, or drove me absolutely crazy. Even with all of the issues that I have had over the last five years, nothing has changed the fact that I love what I do. When I walk across that stage in May and am handed that simple piece of paper that will justify all the blood, sweat, and tears into all of this, it will make everything more than worth it. I cant wait to finish my college career and have many doors open to me for my photography. Looking at my entire portfolio to see everything I have shot since the start, is a humbling experience. You dont really know how far you have come until you see where you started, and I have come so far since I started this crazy adventure.
There will be more to come before the semester ends. I cant wait for all of you to see the rest. Thank you for following, liking, sharing, and creeping on the images I have put on here. You all are the reason my shutter keeps clicking. Enjoy.
