This past Friday I met up with many new faces to shoot, learn and laugh at the Photog Shootout GTG in Dallas. We got a little taste of the atmosphere the Ryan Manor in Dallas offers people looking for a vintage and intimate setting for their event. The shootout was organized by Rob “Ninja” Nicholson and sponsored by Groom Sold Separately. The group leaders consisted of Amy Karp, Heather Essian and Jason Huang from Table4. The models were appropriately styled to match the venue and allowed us to capture some fun and unique images. It was a little too crowded … but I managed to capture some images I thought were blog-worthy. The best part was making a few new photog friends!

::WARNING:: Long Post Ahead! Just sayin’ …
We’re ringin’ in 2010 with a bang! Here’s the first of hopefully many more weddings this year. It also marked my wife Jennifer’s retirement as a professional bridesmaid … she’s a little sad. The outside temperature in Dallas was lower than it had been in over a decade … but overall it turned out to be a beautiful day for an awesome wedding. Thank you Catherine and Nick for choosing me as your photographer … it was a blast. And a special thanks to my brother David for standing in as “flash girl.”

Don’t mess with this guy … he is highly trained in the field of WBSI. (Wedding Band Security & Intelligence)
I don’t know … I’m starting to think I didn’t take enough ring shots. :-p
I’ve never seen kids so focused on a toast. Couldn’t have planned this out even if I paid them in candy bars.
I don’t know what is going on in this shot … but it cracks me up every time I look at it.
This guy was awesome … so intense!

It’s that time of year again … which means it’s time to send out Christmas cards. We’ve been taking self-Christmas portraits to send out to our friends and family for the past three years. We’re definitely getting better at it … but it’s still surprisingly difficult. Here’s a few of my favorites from what we captured a couple of weeks ago for this year’s card:

I had such a hard time choosing photos to blog from Rachel and Brennan’s awesome wedding! This is a long post … but yet … it’s such a small taste of what I actually captured that day. And … this doesn’t even include the days prior or the following day … or my personal photos. I took A LOT of photos that week! The wedding ceremony was held at the The Lutheran Church of Arcata. The fun then moved to the reception spot at Merryman’s Beach House on Moonstone Beach in Trinidad.

It’s now complete and stocked with Cantoni furniture and accessories. It’s 8,000+ sq/ft of pure awesome! It’s also one of a kind and now list by Briggs Freeman Real Estate Brokerage! So get your checkbook ready and find a Realtor before it’s gone! If you want to see more … check back in a few.

I had the pleasure of helping a friend capture Celene & Henry’s wedding day this past weekend. The ceremony was held at St. Michael’s Catholic Church and the reception took place at Myers Parks and Events Center … both in McKinney, Texas.
