Commscope Portraits

Here are some executive photos I did for Commscope in Richardson, TX.  You might also know Commscope under the name Andrew Corp or Systimax. They are a great company. This is a high executive, Ted Hally. He was great to work with and was able to dedicate almost 30 minutes out of his day for us, which was wonderful. His time is very valuable.


Here I have a four light set up. On Ted I have two flashes: 430ex's either side with umbrellas. Camera left is at 1/4th and camera right at 1/8th. In the back I have a flash hitting the guy in orange from the left with umbrella at 1/16th power. The I have the color kicker, a flash just behind the left monitors with a blue gel and cap diffuser set at 1/4th power.




Here I used a green gel. These highly protected servers were neat, but not too photogenic. The green backlight made them come alive and gave the photo a very techy industry look.

They originally didn't want to shoot in this room because of how it looked with the ambient lighting, but I talked them into it and we were both thrilled with the result. In fact, so thrilled that they flew me out to New Jersey to shoot another executive. Pretty neat.

Lindsay and Austin engagement

I just finished taking Lindsay's bridal photos this week, and because I can't upload those until wedding day, here's a few from their engagement session.











These were in and around the downtown square in Denton, Texas.

Comment Moderation

Someone left three extremely vulgar comments on different posts that were insulting and degrading to both my clients and family. Whoever you are, I hope you see how what you wrote could be extremely damaging to those who might read it. By the way, you're a coward for posting anonymously.

Anyway, I didn't think it would come to this. I highly hate censorship especially in art, but I felt forced to. In fact, had the comments been directed toward me or insulting to me, there would probably be no change. To my other readers, your much appreciated comments and feedback will just take a little longer to post as I will have to approve all comments now.

Swisher bridge night

I took photos of the new Swisher Road toll bridge over lake Lewisville, Texas as it went up, for the drilling company and for the construction company: Jensen. I was also lucky enough to take completed photos. Day and night. See the construction and day shots in the JUMP below.

Night is a relative term. It's always best to shoot at twilight and mix in just a little bit of ambient light. It's a delicate balance, but beautiful when done right.



In our case, we had an absolutely beautiful sunset. Not only that, but I had my favorite pilot: Chris Creamer flying me. Slow shutter speeds in a helicopter are quite tricky as well. I was thrilled with the results. Here's more:












The really neat thing about this bridge is that I take it all the time from my home to pretty much anywhere west of DFW. It's very convenient.

Leah and Carey Wedding

Leah and Carey had a beautiful wedding in Justin Texas at The Country Abby





 























I think this one the earliest in a day that I've ever left a wedding. It was around 2pm. Weddings have become more intimate in regards to lighting, with candles and darkness. I'm hoping this is just a fad. This wedding however was daytime and nice and bright! The more light the better for us photographers.

Thanks to Tre who second shot with me this wedding.

Catalogue Photos

I was contacted by a company today about catalogue photos of jewelry. I realized I didn't really have a portfolio of this on my website. Categorizing portfolios is really hard when you offer such a wide variety of services. In any case, instead of going through the coding of creating a portfolio, I thought this would be the easiest way of showing a quick compilation of the work I've done which relates.

These are shots I did for Catherine Page Jewelry and are the most relevant. 

We used this strange human art piece in many photos. Other photos were taken with just a solid white background, but I feel these are more creative and better to show. I'll have plenty of pure white photos in this post. 

You can see more pictures on here website (although they are not all by me). click the photo or the link below.
