Charisse Lynn and Clint

This is Charisse Lynn and Clint.  

They're a really fun couple.

We went on an adventure this past Tuesday.

The shoot went great! Thank you!

September POD

September is one of those months that I look forward too.  Summer ends, school begins -- things cool down and one can begin to ease up and enjoy the weather...plus, it means my favorite month is just around the bend (and is now here!).

I've been working on getting access to a darkroom here in town, so in celebration for achieving that goal in September, I present to you some color film images from a roll I took in May of 2011.

I didn't expect how emotional I felt towards seeing this roll developed.  That's the fun in film though.  It isn't instant.  You forget what's on it.  

I'll be developing more old rolls this month.  I can't wait to see them!

Paula Nelson

I love music.  I love all kinds of music.  I especially love live music.

A few weeks ago I went out to see Paula Nelson play at the Saxon Pub.

I've always heard great things about the Saxon Pub.  I had never been before and I was pumped to have a reason to go check it out.  It's one of those bars in Austin that simply has amazing history.  Many talented people have played on that stage and you can feel the energy hanging out in this space.

The show was nice and low key.  There were only a few people in the bar but everyone was listening.  I was fortunate to be there and have the opportunity to take some photos.  Landis, her guitar player, may be one of the best guitar players I've seen play live.  I enjoyed myself immensely.

I took this last shot while they were playing.  I feel like it sums up the energy of my night pretty well.  If you ever get a chance to either see Paula Nelson or go to the Saxon Pub or, better yet, go to the Saxon Pub to see Paula play, I would definitely recommend it.

Tata for now!

Milk Experiment

A few nights ago we did the great milk experiment. Apparently when you mix soap and milk and food coloring crazy things happen.

Here are a few shots that I got:

The video below explains how to do it. Ours didn't work quite as well as this one. You should try it. It's fun.
