fun with the macro

I’ve worn my engagement ring for nearly twelve years now.  David proposed on June 18, 1998 at the Northwood Inn in Waco, TX.  I don’t think the wedding photographer got any pictures of our rings, so I jumped at the chance to photograph mine today with my brother’s borrowed 100mm f/2.8L IS USM macro.  This...

Dave - Wow, I really need to buy you some new rings (or get the current ones buffed to a sheen).June 1, 2010 – 8:23 am

Dawn - OMG Jen those are STUNNING!!! I love the textures you used (must share!)! You are so creative – what is that gray leafy stuff?June 1, 2010 – 9:52 am

Jen - Dawn – the textures: they’re actions, part of the TRA Revenge set. I don’t know what the grey/white plant is… it was growing in a flowerpot in my mom’s back yard. I will have to ask her what it is.June 1, 2010 – 10:06 pm

Jen - update: the white plant is “Dusty Miller”June 1, 2010 – 10:12 pm

my little friend

Let me introduce you to my new little friend, the EF 50mm f/1.4 USM lens.  This one is going to be working very hard for me.  I wish I could have afforded his big brother the EF 50mm f/1.2 L but, alas, who has $1300 laying around?  Not me! And here are some of the...

Jen K. - I’m so grateful I’m not married to a gamer! I thought (very briefly) of getting Craig a Wii for Father’s Day. Not going to happen. Craig’s vice is the internet (Miami Dolphins news, all the way!). However, if I let Craig do the shopping, we’d end up with 10 boxes of cereal and no produce. :-) May 18, 2010 – 2:12 pm

a team

I had the privilege of photographing a wedding in Fort Worth this weekend and brought along my brother as a second shooter.  I completely could not have done this without him.  I know I could have … but it just would not have been the same.  Totally would not have been the same.  I would...

Jen K. - Your brother looks like your dad. A lot. I never saw it before :-) I mean, you can obviously see your mom, but I see your dad, too.December 8, 2009 – 9:24 am

Dawn - I absolutely cannot wait to see your images! You look so professional with all that gear!December 8, 2009 – 9:26 am

Jennifer - Thanks, Jen and Dawn! I can’t wait to edit them but I need to do some of my practice sessions first. I agree with Jer looking like my dad though I think he got more Japanese in him than I did. :-) Like father, like son.December 8, 2009 – 9:56 am

Concert of Praise

**cross posted on my photoblog** Every year, our church has what they call a Concert of Praise.  It’s an evening service held with all of the Hill Country Bible Churches in the association.  This year, there were so many churches (due to church planting!) that the concert had to be split between “East side –...
