My 1st fashion show

Okay, okay so this is not the 1st fashion show I have photographed, three years back I took upon myself to be the unofficial, untrained, and unwanted photographer of the Blinque fashion show

A flashback to the horror of my past photog skills:




Yeaaah, I have come a long way, lol.

Anyway, I was invited to be the photographer of Runway 35 fashion show last week and I was pretty pumped about it (I wanted to redeem myself, lol).

The fashion show was very unique it had a little of everything, it had many

music Groups:



Dance Groups:

Swinsuits:

Fly tuxes:
and of course hot fashion!



I guess the pictures are good, but I think I could have done better :o1

It was fun to shoot. Hopefully I will get to shoot a few more in the future...

Mrs. Dallas

My grad school buddy Courtney Bobb is Mrs. Dallas! So of course she hired my to take her photographs =0)

We took some tradition shots, but they are on my other computer. However, the ones I really like are the shots we took outside! Courtney leaves in the boondocks where there is alot of rural land and farms. I totally swagger jacked Kevin Jairaj's on his signature "hay stack" photos and tried some of my own:


Okay, so they didn't turn out as fabulous, but I am pretty pleased with what i got. I had been praying for blue sky the entire day, but I didn't get it. I really don't mind b/c I think the sky looks pretty cool!

I like this picture the most: Hot Mama!


Also, I have finally come to terms with the fact that I am a sky chick: I will forever take pictures of the sky and I can't fight it! lol.

Til next time,

I have always wanted to photograph a woman in a tutu...

Wow, it has been a loooooooooooooong time again! I promise, some day I will do better


So, a few weeks back, my friend Candice asked for some pictures in her tutu. I was more than happy to help her out because I always wanted to be a ballerina, but my mother would not a allow me =0(

Luckily I did not let that bitter childhood memory get to me, and after a very quick shoot in the UNT parking lot, this is what we got:




This is to date my quickest shoot....and i think my most favorite one =0) Look out for more ballerina shoots on the way....

Valentines Day w/ St Andrew Marriage Ministry

Feb 14th came and went and I actually got to do something productive! St Andrew COGIC had a marriage ministry retreat and they asked me to take some photos.
Around 20 couples were in attendance and they were more than zealous to take photographs. They kept me busy alll evening!
I found a contemporary looking couch to create some fun protraits! here are a few:

I don't know why, but i really like this shot of the Pittmans!
Earlier that evening I had set up outside for portriat, but everyone was getting ready for the evening! Fortuantely, I managed to get a few in:

I really love this one of the Kemps!


Yes, I know I said no more cloud shots, but I just could not help myself!
All in all, I felt blessed to see married couples enjoy each others company, it made it a pleasurable experience =0)
And for people wondering, all pictures should be ready by the end of the week =0D

Sooo, it has been a while

Hello Peeps, Happy new year! lol.

So it has been a while since I have posted and I do apologize, but let us not dwell on the past!

So within the past few months I have been shooting parties for this great company called gravity and swag =0). So far the parties have been great, the people are fun and I sometimes forget I am working!

Anywho, here are some photos from their superbowl party:






Then the next week they had an event called "First Fridays".

Shout out to Ms Tracee, it was her 30th birthday (though she looks 19, lol).





Also, the DJ was tons of fun!

The next day G&S had their first annual All Black Affair. Everyone who came had a blast! They had a really hot band called Casanova there:



And People danced the night away =0)



In conclusion: If you are looking for events to network with African American professionals in the arlington-Dallas-Fort Worth area, Gravity and Swag events are for you! Look at for more events by gravity and swag on their website: www.Gravityandswag.com
