Azaleas

This shot of my Mom's azaleas was taken on Easter, 4/12/09. (Click on picture for a closer view)

Lense

Playing around with Illustrator and Photoshop. Lense was done in Illustrator with a series of gradients and then imported into Photoshop.

Steph's First Prom

Steph's boyfriend, Jeremy, was a senior this year, and it was her first prom. We had plans on going to the park on the river in Decatur, Alabama to shoot some outside shots. As plans usually go awry, and in the commotion and hustle and bustle that is the confusion in such instances, time ran short and darkness fell. We did not have time to go across town to the park. Luckily, I had brought a couple of strobes and wireless transmitter; but no tripods. So, two sisters-Steph's mom and Pam-held the strobes for me, and we shot in their apartment. Background of some flowers in Texas was added later and Photoshopped a little. They were pleased with the result.

DCA III

Crisco's brother and his wife commissioned me to paint a portrait of their son, Trey. I think the photo they sent me was when he was around two? This was also an 18" x 24" mixed media - gouache/pastel. I've heard she's pregnant, again.... Congratulations!!
