It had been 6 years since I photographed the wedding of Brittany Bednarz. Imagine the feeling I got when I talked to her little sister Tiffany, and she told me that she wanted me to photograph HER wedding too! I got to know Tiffany a little back then, and this summer I got to meet… Read More

3 Sisters Photo Shoot
I’ve been known as a wedding photographer for going on 14 years. It’s my thing. I love shooting weddings, and I feel like I’ve picked up a few skills here and there. But I always find it a little funny when people are surprised when I do a studio shoot. Actually, when I started out… Read More
Bridesmaid Discount
Yesterday was an amazing day. People who know me know that EVERY day is amazing and a blessing, but yesterday was special for a few reasons. I had a wedding consultation with a potential client who knew me because I had photographed a wedding in October of 2018 where she was a bridesmaid. She said… Read More
I’m BACK!
It’s all about priorities. As much as I love doing photography here in the San Antonio and Hill Country, I had to leave almost a year ago. Without going into excessive details, my mother was having health problems and needed a caregiver. I moved to Amarillo, and had to stop accepting new clients. I’m happy… Read More

Sons Of Anarchy Photo Shoot
A while back another photographer told me that he was putting together a photoshoot inspired by the TV drama “Sons of Anarchy”. I had a Harley that would look good, even though it wasn’t running. We pushed it into the street, and began shooting. I’ve always wanted to do a black and white photo shoot, so that’s how I edited my pictures from the project.
Blocking Uncle Bob
Uncle Bob is a term that wedding photographers use to describe a wedding guest who sometimes (usually) gets in the way of the hired photographer to get a picture on his camera or cell phone. I understand Uncle Bob. There’s usually at least one at every wedding. They want to be the FIRST one to post a video clip or a picture of the wedding on FaceBook or other social media. They all know the wedding couple have hired a professional wedding photographer, but they still feel it is their responsibility to get that shot because surely they have a better view or angle than that “Pro” does. They will get in the aisle while the bride is coming, or they will pop up to get the picture of “the kiss”. Read More
I Hate Drunks
I discriminate. Yes, there… I said it. Not against a race, ethnicity, sexual preference or gender. I love all races, ethnicity, and love my gay friends. I’ve discovered after many years that I am mean to people who drink excessive alcohol. Without going into detail WHY I’m writing this, I just want to give some… Read More
Cropping and Aspect Ratio
When you go shopping for a picture frame, what’s the most “common” size you’ll find? 8″ x 10″. It’s been like that for… well, longer than I’ve been around. I remember when I first got into photography, (the film years) and took my film to the drugstore to get processed. I had 4″x6″ prints made,… Read More
Get Out Of My Head Whataburger
My Foil Hat I’m a little worried about Whataburger. Apparently, they have figured out a way into my parietal lobe of my brain and figured out what makes me salivate like a starving Great Dane. I heard a commercial on the radio the other day that they were introducing a new burger: The “Chorizo Burger”… Read More
