Welcome Get Shot By Tate!
Since you MUST know about me...... I'll talk about what kind of photographer I am. I'm the kid who hated traditional crap. I hated the concept of doing wedding photography. I wanted to do high fashion and naked people - and that WAS IT. Fast Forward to ten + years later....... I'm doing weddings, naked people (but it's always tasteful..... or at least I think it is) and I do SOME traditional stuff. I like to think my traditional stuff is twisted. Ok, it's not traditional. Call it what you want to call it, but I don't like the WORD - traditional. My wife does. She's twisted traditional. My work is my work. I don't like rules. It's hard for me to play by the rules when I'm doing photography. I think that's what keeps it so fun for me. I tell the parents of my senior shoots that I dislike cap and gown shots (was I supposed to do that?) but I still do them because I know they love those. ;-) I think you get the drift of what kind of photographer I am. I may think I'm way more radical than I am, but let me think I'm just ubercool and not traditional. Okay?

Jess was living here in Louisiana for a bit under a year working as an temp counselor at a local school and has since then returned to her home state of Michigan to venture into her next chapter of her life. We are old friends from Gallaudet University and I did a session with her years ago, so this time around it was fun to do it locally in Louisiana! She said the last time we did them, it was more of "cutesy" and this time around she wanted me to take control and just shake things up!

We certainly shook things up, didn't we Jess?!? :) I loooooove how these photos came out!
