Baby Love

Alright so, my first newborn session. Special thanks to Sarah McFarlane who let us photograph her sweetpea McKinley last week at the club. I've always been a bit apprehensive about babies what with their crying, and fragility, and unpredictable incontinence, but I had a really fun time with my friends Pam and Allen doing this shoot. McKinley was born to be a model, great blue steel looks in a few images and howled like the dickens the moment we put her on a scale - yep typical model M.O.. 

While I don't know if I'll be adding babies into my full service offerings any time soon, it was great to get the experience under my belt. Here are some highlights. 

Sonsrena Portrait Event

Had a great time out last night with the Sonsrena apartment complex crowd at their grand re-opening. It was my first time working an event as a commercial sponsor. We provided walk-in portrait sessions and got free chocolate covered strawberries and apple cider - Win! Here are a couple highlights from the night. Thanks to Kendall, Brendan, Curtis and the Sonsrena management group for letting me do this!

Indian Classical Music Circle Performance Concert

Had an amazing time the Day after my birthday photographing the DFW Indian Classical Music Circle Performance in Allen. Through my contact with Kathak Rhythms, a dance studio in Plano, I was able to come out and shoot the event which was a marathon showcase of outstanding talent of all ages and varieties. The capstone of the night were the kathak classical dance performances at the end, clearly evident how many hours had gone in to practice and rehearsal to prepare. I am definitely looking forward to doing more work with the NTX Indian American community, so we are offering a special discount for any ICMC members (see website for more details on that). But if you know any one who does mehndi or any traditional Indian artwork/dance/dress please put me in contact with them as I am quite eager to build my portfolio of Indian work.
Here are some highlights from the evening:
