Sony A7rIII and the GoPro Hero 7 Black. Do I Really Need them Both? Yes…I do!
As photographer, I often struggle with whether or not to lug my big camera with its even bigger lenses with me everywhere I go. When I do leave the house without my camera, I often find myself wishing I had it with me. And many times, someone will walk up to me and...
Butterflies or a Trip to the Grocery Store?
I was pulling out of my driveway yesterday to head to the grocery store (one of my least favorite tasks), and as I was backing out, I noticed a really beautiful black and yellow butterfly enjoying my crazy, wild Lantana. My grocery list was long, but it had also been...
Soccer and Baseball Pictures with the Sony 70-200. Is This Lens Enough?
For several years now, I have been taking pictures of my kids at their soccer and baseball games with my Sony A7 RIII using my 70-200 lens. I would say that this is easily my favorite out of all my lenses! However, as my kids continue to grow, so does the size of the...
Summer Time in Texas and Baseball…A Great Combination
Sports photography has been a passion of mine since my son started t-ball back when he was 4 years old. These days, you can find me following him with my camera at all of his baseball games. It is one of my favorite things to do. It’s a good thing, because he plays a...
This Moose Got A Little Too Close for Comfort: A Colorado Adventure
Driving up the winding roads in Rocky Mountain National Park was so much fun. Mesmerizing, in fact. Often times, there would be a bit of a road block, usually because of some Elk sitting or grazing in a pasture off to the side of the road. It was always a great...
Elk Calving Area: Aggressive Elk May Be Present – A Colorado Adventure
On our first trip to Estes Park, Colorado, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I was certainly hoping to see some wildlife to take photos of, but what I experienced was way beyond what I'd hoped for. On about day 3 of our adventure, I drove over to Lake Estes by...
Historic Downtown McKinney and Senior Photoshoots
Historic Downtown McKinney is one of my favorite places to go hang out, walk around, shop a little bit, and have a nice meal with family. The shops are unique and fun to browse, and all of the restaurants I've eaten at have been wonderful. Recently, I had my first...
From Sixth Grader to Senior: A Photoshoot with Matt
My senior photoshoot last week with Matt was so much fun. I just love getting to know these kids (young adults) and hearing about their college plans. With Matt, things were a bit different though, because I have known him for quite a while. It's a pretty fun story......
A Very Special Photoshoot at Adriatica Village in McKinney
I was excited when Hallie told me she wanted to meet for her photoshoot at Adriatica Village in McKinney. I had been out there for dinner a few times and thought the place was just beautiful, but up until now, I had never done a photoshoot there. I had, however, taken...
