Trick or Treating Does Not Last Forever…So Enjoy It Now (and take pictures)!
Now that I have a middle schooler and a 4th grader, I can see that my time of having cute little Halloween mini photo sessions with them in their costumes is almost over... So very sad. Halloween is not my favorite holiday by any means, but I sure do love the pictures...
Don’t Forget the Quiet Moments in Between All the Action Shots…
Everyone, myself included, always loves the action shots in sports photography. You know...the money shots. Your child scoring a goal in soccer, catching a pop-fly, tagging someone out at the plate, or throwing a perfect curve ball when they're pitching. Sometimes...
To Take Or Not To Take My “Real” Camera to the Fair??
For those of you who know me (and my camera), you know that the decision to head to the State Fair of Texas without my camera was not made lightly. Blackjack, my Sony A7rIII, comes with me almost everywhere. If I'm not carrying him around my neck, he's probably tucked...
Another Perfect Baseball Weekend with a Surprise Nike Ad Mixed In…
Another hot, humid weekend in Texas filled with baseball games at a tournament in Mesquite (with a soccer game mixed in just to spice things up)! We headed out to Mesquite, and of course I had my camera bag packed and ready to go. When we arrived, I realized this...
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...
