This is probably my all-time favorite picture of any picture I've taken and I love it even more because it just so happens to be my oldest son. I've been wanting to get this picture blown up huge-a 24x30 on a fine art gallery canvas. So I came back to it this week and played around with it. I wanted a more dramatic feel to it because I always felt like I had never done it justice. I am really pleased with the way this one turned out and I can't wait to get it printed (along with my baby's Sweet 16 newborn collage)!

capture the smiles workshop
Posted in events
I'm starting a really exciting workshop especially for parents in which I will teach you how to better photograph your children. If your kids are anything like mine, it is a struggle to get a good picture that I feel reflects who they truly are. In my workshop, I will teach you tips and tricks to get those beautiful pictures while still having fun. This workshop is not intended to be a photography course and I will not cover any technical stuff. It is a one-time 1 hour course in an intimate setting. I will present and teach the information during the first half-hour and the remaining half hour will be left open for questions and discussion. The cost of the workshop is $25 per person. I will be reserving spots for the first workshop soon since the space is limited (max of 10 people). If you are interested in having an exclusive workshop for your mommy's group or for your friends & family, let me know. Please contact me with any questions.

the studs
Posted in seniors
the studs
I just have to laugh since these "studs" are my cousins. They are handsome boys with great personalities. We had a great time walking the streets of downtown El Paso posing for shots. They even got whistled at a couple of times! I came up with a name for them since they are always together-Adriel. It actually the dark haired's senior pictures, but since we didn't do the blond one's last year, we decided to do one for both. I know they're really anxious to see their pictures, so I posted a few so they could see (even though they already raided the camera to see all the pictures right after the photo session was up). Hope you enjoyed being the center of attention for an hour and a half! You guys really worked it. Thanks for being such awesome boys! (Oh, and warning to to girls-stay away! I can get pretty vicious.)

When I walked into these client's home, I was pleasantly surprised-after all, it's not every day you see a house like this every day. They had a beautiful atrium to greet guests that had tropical plants, a little water foutain and a quaint iron table and four chairs, two of which where retro yellow 60's chairs that I loved. We had a fun time during the photo session, especially when their 9-month old nephew joined in a few shots and when their big Lab dog came to play with them for a few shots. Thanks for being so patient with me guys, even when I had the sickies!
