Jiang Family Life Session

December 14th, 2008

Officially out of breath.

Ethan had me running around like a frikking mad man last night on their Life Session! This 2 1/2 year old was more hyper than a mexican jumping bean with terrets…I tell you what…..I REALLY need to start running again! Up the hill, down the hill, across the bridge, to the moon and back…we covered like 50 miles in 1 hour. In the end it was TOTALLY worth it though because the Wei family rocks! It was such a pleasure to spend the evening with these guys!

This is the Jiang Family’s Life, the way I see it.

Ethan…on top of the world!

So studly!

This is my super favorite!

This park had such beautiful flowers!

This shot makes me feel free!

Ethan….if you haven’t noticed…..LOVES his blanky!

This was my vision. I told Brandi before I left I was going to get this shot somehow.

This park is a frikking jewel! SO pretty….hands down best park I’ve shot at EVER!

Thanks for letting me hang out with you guys!


I heart my G1! The camera’s not too bad….for a cell phone!

This is where dreams are made….little ‘ol Santa Fe!

Tis the season! I LOVE my clients!

This stuff is CRAPTASTIC…DO NOT TRY!

A ball of Coke.

Because it snowed like…a few flurries….I made wassail!

Max licks windows…oh….and yesterday Brandi was holding his pacifier and was like….does he need this? I was like….NO….and that was the end of the binky! No problem!

Meh paps…..

Ok…I got’s pizza to eat…and gear to get charging for tomorrows supe stellar Life Session!

Osowo Family Life Session

December 7th, 2008

The light in Texas is different. It’s yellow, but not as yellow as California’s light. The light in Florida, at it’s best, is pink. It’s so amazing to me that different locations yield different colors of evening light. The Osowo family definitely soaked up that beautiful light last night though. Well, this family is beautiful enough, so even in bad light this family would shine brightly.

I had the ultimate pleasure of hanging out with these guys last night here in the heart of Houston. I am so excited to be a part of this family’s life!

This is the Owowo Family’s Life, the way I see it.

Little Tosin is THE cutest EVER!!

Baby Shilo just chilled the whole time…

….and smiled some.

Tosin LOVES his little sister Shilo!

Tosin is going to break some ladies hearts one day.

Frikking full of energy!

Thanks Tosin!

Ahhhhh!

This park was SO beautiful. I have many many places picked out to shoot at.

Thanks for letting me be a part of you guys’ evening!

I am running an experiment, which will then be turned into an article. I REALLY would appreciate your responses to this question:

“What factors do you consider in determining whether or not a photographer is a “professional?”

Every comment will be entered into a drawing for a Starbucks Giftcard! Woo

I LOVE my G1!

December 3rd, 2008

My G1 totally rocks! HTC is forecasting 3 million sold by the end of this year! Thats 3 million units in 3 months! Holy schnikes!

The ability to mult-task is so cool. Stream music, check email, browse the web, run GPS tracking, all at the same time. Here are a few of my favorite apps.

Shopsavvy – I was at Walmart yesterday to buy a wireless usb adabtor because the one in my laptop pooped out. I whipped out my G1, scanned the products barcode, and found it cheaper down the road (old screenshots).

WeatherBug – Pretty much a must have. Radar down to street level, video forecasts, etc. The cool thing about WeatherBug is that you don’t have to enter your location wherever you go. Your phone automatically picks up your location and WeatherBug displays accordingly. Frikking sweet.

Ringdroid – This app just has a “cool” factor. It allows you to extract any part of song and save it to your G1 as a ringtone.

IMEEM – Very similar to Pandora for iPhone.

Instamapper GPS tracker – Real time GPS tracking, which can be run in the background

Doggcatcher – Listen to your favorite podcasts! You can run this app in the background, while doing other things on the G1.

Shazam – Ever been in the car driving, hear a song, and your like “oooh…..what song is this?!” Then they don’t even tell you? Have no fear! Shazam is here! This app “listens” to what music is being played, tells you what it is and from which album, and gives you the options to view it on Youtube, or purchase the mp3 directly from the Amazon MP3 store!

Skymap – I LOVE the stars, and the night sky. This handy dandy app moves with you. It displays the star maps according to the direction your facing. If you move, the screen moves using the G1s accelerometer.

Twilight – Handy for photographers. Sunrise and sunset times anywhere, anytime, automatically.

Amazon MP3 store – Fast and convienient

I’ll post up some more of my favorite apps next week.
