Monster Trucks!





A few years ago I started photographing the annual monster truck show at Raymond James Stadium here in Tampa. I look forward to it every year now. I go with my brother-in-law and our sons. They think it is the coolest thing ever. I love photographing the action and getting dust all over me. Even more than that, I enjoy watching my son get so excited. It's really a trip.

Amanda's Portraits





As promised, I am back. I will try to be better about coming here to share. It just seems like there are too many things going on these days. I guess that happens to all of us - especially at the beginning of the year.

Today I want to share with you Amanda's Senior Portraits. She was amazing, as I expected she would be. The photos are fun and beautiful and very very Amanda. That is a quality I work very hard to maintain in my portraits, a sense of truth about who the subject really is. Most of the portrait sittings I do aver very different from one another. That's part of the fun for me and for my subjects.

You can see the slideshow with more select images of Amanda's senior portraits HERE

2007 Starts With a Wedding





I just realized I have been too busy to visit the blog world for quite a while. I will try to catch everyone up with what has been going on. I will post a few of the highlights in the next day or two.

The first highlight to share is the beautiful wedding on January 1st. Al and Melissa met me at a friend's wedding in July and I was their choice for their New Year's Day wedding at the Florida Aquarium. What an amazing and beautiful wedding. This was my first at the aquarium and I'm looking forward to more of them now that I've seen one there. The huge panoramic tank is an amazing backdrop for your ceremony and the lobby of the aquarium made a beautiful location for the reception.

Please take a few moments and visit the album design slideshow HERE Melissa and I have been fine tuning the design and will be getting her album started very soon. I can't wait to see the final product. It will be gorgeous. I might need one to show off...
