4th of July portraits

I spent the 4th of July in Austin with Emily, Sara, and Sara’s boyfriend Kevin. We went to the lake, ate a ton of food, visited my grandma, and watched fireworks over the lake from a parking garage near where I used to work. It was a great day!

We took a stroll by Town Lake with Sara when Em and I were in Austin and stopped for a few pictures.

Bluebonnets!

The bluebonnets and Indian paintbrushes were out in full force when we were in Austin last month! Spring has definitely sprung in central Texas!

Em and I took a bunch of pictures in downtown Houston and on the beach in Galveston a couple of weeks ago.

When we were in Austin in October, I took a few pictures of Emily downtown and at the Capitol at night.

New backdrop!

I bought some black and silver satin to use for a new backdrop. Em let me take a few pictures of her to try it out.

Emily and the rain

We had a decent storm come through a few nights ago and I got some pictures of the light through the window hitting Em’s face. The raindrops streaking down the glass looked like warpaint!

Portraits at the Blanton Museum of Art

Emily, Sara, and I headed down to the Blanton Museum of Art at the University of Texas last weekend and got some fun portraits at an art installation there.

Em’s jumping pictures

Emily and I went to a park near our apartment and she had fun running and jumping all over the place.

Emily’s downtown Houston nighttime portraits

After seeing Phantom of the Opera in downtown Houston, Em and I did an impromptu photo shoot by a fountain across the street from the theater. There was some uplighting from some glass squares on the sidewalk, and then by the fountain there was a bright greenish backlight. I used my external flash off to her side and had her hold still for 6 to 8 seconds so I could get the sky and buildings to be nice and bright. She did a great job!
