Beaches are few and far between in this part of Texas. Given that, this is probably one of my favorites.
Several of you — Monica, in particular — have approached me wanting to do an outdoor photo session on a beach. This could possibly be a great location for that. I'm looking for a test [...]

Our Caddo Lake trip was a huge success! Celeste did wonderfully, it was nice to spend the weekend with my parents, and Jess and I both really enjoyed ourselves.

As much as a 6 week old can love anything, Celeste loves being outdoors and that makes me very happy. I love to watch her face as [...]

In conjunction with the LiveJournal DITL Community I did a photograph DITL documentary on Tuesday, January 15th, 2008. These are those images.

5:49am. A fairly typical morning.

I've always wanted to try documenting an entire day of my life through photography. I recently purchased a Canon Powershot Point and Shoot, since lugging around all my gear all the time with the baby just isn't possible like it was before. I figure this would give me an opportunity to test out the camera [...]

Every piece of orchestral music sounds like a broken music box when listened to through a baby monitor, yet I listen still. The occasional sigh or faint cry heard over those broken notes is just enough to keep my worry enclosed, despite the fact that she is sleeping right next to her mother, fully capable [...]

I've decided to enter my first JPG Magazine Submission in the "Surroundings" category. I'd be honored if you'd take the time to go vote for it.
First the image: You might remember seeing a similar image from me in the past. In fact, that image is one of my most popular on Flickr. I had to [...]

It was almost exactly one year ago that I started a project attempting to photograph myself and share the results once daily. The time constraints of this, some kind of life, and a 50+ hour work week made it impossible to continue. I discussed ways of keeping it alive and then eventually ended it.

However, while [...]

Here's Jess at 34 weeks. Simply beautiful.
I guess our photoshoot with Jonathan really helped break the ice because,  later, she decided to go with my dad and I to Lake Worth at sunset and pose for me for a few photographs.
This is her favorite of those. There are a few others that might make it [...]

Thanks to all of you for your insight into yesterday's discussion regarding Photo Collection Editing.
This image — Sun Scarred Sky over Lake Worth — is the result of that process and subsequent editing (view the original).
In the end, I ended up with 4 images (one from each angle) from the original 18 that I felt [...]

Sometimes editing a collection of photos is a more difficult task than actually editing the individual photos themselves.
When examining the results of a haphazard, moving photoshoot with a varied assortment of images subjects the task is often easier as each image is generally of a different subject with different lighting and framing. However with [...]
