In Limbo

I am camera-less.
I’m going through withdrawals. I had to sell my XTi to make room in the bank account for a camera upgrade, and now I’m unable to take those random, pointless little pictures that I’ve become accustomed to capturing.
For the past 10 months or so, I’ve constantly had the think strapped to my back, [...]

be/an/i

We don’t read.
We don’t fight for our marriages.
We don’t hold doors open for strangers.
We don’t believe we deserve discipline…ever.
We disdain the views and advice of our elders.
We watch our weight closer than we watch our tempers.
We believe in a god, but not a god who knows what’s best for us.
We don’t know how to distinguish [...]

My Confession

Tonight I was “parched” while heading to my Marriage and the Family night class at LSU-S. I noticed that I had a few extra minutes, so I stopped at the Circle K across from the campus to pick up a carbonated beverage.
While standing in line, holding my single item in my hand, I noticed the [...]

Kenneth

If you look on the right side of my blog, you’ll see a ton of links. I have links to some of my favorite photographers, links to the various social networking sites I’m “forced” to keep up with, as well as some links to guys’ blogs who I feel are not just worth my reading, [...]

Celeste

I finally finished editing Celeste’s shots today (from last Thursday). That’s actually a quick turnaround for photogs, but now my neck is aching from tensing up as I’m fiddling with stuff in Photoshop. I need to edit in one of those massage recliners that people can’t get out of at Sharper Image.
Anyways, THANK YOU x [...]

Congratulations!

I have a bit of a problem with humans on this day.
If I greeted my parents by saying, “Congratulations on winning the 1988 Super Bowl,” you might find my adulation misplaced. Actually, you might call me a ridiculous idiot. The same could be said if I applauded you for that wonderful “Emancipation Proclamation” speech you [...]

Creepy Easter

Is it just me…

…or does Pope Benedict XVI creep the living daylights out of any of you guys too?
I’m not sure what it is about the man’s eyes, but they are skeeeeeery. He kind of reminds me of Emperor Palpatine in appearance, but maybe that has more to do with the robes and circles under [...]

Wall-E

I’ve been a big fan of Pixar for a long, long time. I’ve enjoyed every single one of their movies, and I’m not ashamed to say it.
No, it has nothing to do with the company being previously owned by Steve Jobs (sold to Disney in 2006 for $7,400,000,000).
I just really, really like their movies. I [...]

More Pictures Coming…

I shot Celeste’s high school senior portraits Thursday morning all around Bossier City/Shreveport. I’m still editing them (only about 15% through right now), but I wanted to share this one.
It’s best viewed full-size. Click on the picture and then click the zoom button on the Flickr page.
Thank you, Celeste!

Sandlin Family

I had the privilege of shooting the Sandlins (photographically speaking…there was no gunfire involved) this past Monday. Here are a few images from the shoot. To see much of the set, visit this link to the collection on my Flickr page.
