Test shoot for project concept

Not exactly what I had initially intended (you can't tell that he's in a barber chair after he's just had a cut and shave) but I like the results of a tighter composition and the single-light setup

Kayla in sequins

The hair stylist I work with on shoots had previously worked with Kayla and thought it'd be fun for us all to work together. She has that dark hair and light eyes combination that's hard to beat.

Raquel's new boots

It was the height of Covid...I wanted to shoot but wasn't ready to let anyone in my studio. I figured outdoors would allow us to keep our distance and have plenty of fresh air ventilation.

Rider

New to portraits so i was trying out some during a street photography session. Got this gentlemen who was working on his Harley to pose for me.

Monica's garden portrait

I've photographed Monic a few times. We've always had great pics. She reached out to update her portfolio and specifically wanted to shoot in a natural setting.

'Lil Gunslinger'

A portrait of a 'Lil Gunslinger' Copyright 2022 Shot this image during a Wild West Photoshoot on my Saloon front set at my home studio. F7.1/SS500/ISO200 *4ft Octabox camera left (used as fill)

Katy's new kini

Katy and I planned to shoot some swimwear in March to avoid the blistering Texas Summer heat. We didn't count on unusually cold temps and high winds. Props to Katy for pushing through!

Megan makeup ready

Megan come over for a 3-look set. This was the causal look. I thought it might be fun to get her on top of the makeup table. I hope you like it.

Logan in black tulle

Logan is a dancer in a local dance company. She reached out for a shoot. She thought black tulle might be a cool look so I made this dress for her. I hope you like it.

General Kael

This is part portrait, part product photography. This is a custom built General Kael helmet/mask. I opted for a dark, gritty look, as I felt it was appropriate.

Nikki in the shadows

I've known Nikki for years. It so easy when we shoot. We know we're gonna get something good whatever we do. She said she wanted to do something with shadows. This is what we came up with.

Janet

Janet is an actor, model, physical trainer and elementary school teacher.

I love the drama in this image. She pulled a great experssion.

Ellie in studio

Ellie saw one of my IG posts. She reached out to the model to ask about the experience. I got rave reviews so Ellie booked me for her very first fashion shoot.

Beth in black and pearls

Beth needed to refresh her portfolio. When she got here, we were going through her wardrobe, she pulled out this high cropped top but didn't have bottoms to go with it.

Riley in sheer black

A local natural light photographer reached out for studio light mentoring. He brought Riley as our model. We spent an afternoon in the studio. We got some killer images.

Emerald in tiger print

Emerald came over for a 3-look content builder session. When we pulled out the tiger print jacket I knew I wanted to pair that with a teak chair in my studio. I really loved how it came out.

Mackenzie's black bodysuit

Mackenzie just signed with a modeling agency. She needed images for her portfolio. Her skin was perfect so I decided to use hard light. I like this image. I hope you do.

Drea in black leather

A mutual friend recommended Drea and I connect on a photo shoot. We picked several looks including this one with black leather pants. We wanted to shoot in an alley.

Kate giving off Ralph Lauren vibes

Kate and I have been following each other's IG for years. We finally connected for a shoot. It was definitely worth the wait. Here's one of the looks from our 3-look set. Hope you like it.⁠

Modern couple

Morgan came over for a shoot. She brought her boyfriend. At the end she admitted she was hoping to get a couples shot since she was encouraging him to start modeling. We shot a few, this was one.

Fine Art Couture Venus

This last year was a super busy one and I haven't been active here for a while, so I wanted to share one of my latest images with you.
