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?

Nicole just mailed me a copy of their (Baton Rouge General Hospital) magazine and had a lil surprise for me inside it. When I went to meet up with them to give feedback on the NexTalk service they now have available for the deaf and hard of hearing community (and they used those exact words! no "hearing impaired" stuff). Needless to say - it came out good.

Here's my latest updated schedule for this year. Again, I am so fortunate to have so many bookings around the states AND locally - it's all wonderful!

Please contact me if you're interested in having me do your wedding this year. Inquiries are floating around and it's first come first serve (as in the deposit!) so the sooner, the better.

Again, thanks everyone!

Wow, what a busy schedule you have ahead of you! :) That is good!
I thought for sure you will come to Vegas in May, guess that was canceled?? Boo Hoo, Was hoping that we can have you to do photo shoot of my family... I can see that you'll be here in July, but my kids won't be here.. oh well! Perhaps do a picture for Sherif and me. :)))

So jealous that you get to go to Temecula!!! That's one of my most favorite places. Such an amazing place tucked between SD and LA. Have a great time there and be sure to visit Ponte' cellars! There's a navtive New Orleanian there!!!

I've been getting alot of inquiries these days asking when I'm NOT booked so that's such a compliment! I just updated my schedule to post for everyone to see at fair game.

Remember, whoever puts down the deposit first gets me photographing!

Have a happy holiday y'all and THANK YOU so much again for all the amazing support. I am so lucky to be where I am now with my business. I keep dreaming bigger and continue to improve year by year.

Sho just sent me a scan of my photo of her that Deaf Life used for her article in their latest issue. She also apologized for them not even giving me credit. Deaf Life, here's a little known fact - ALWAYS credit the photographer in your magazine when using their photographs. It is nothing but an insult when you don't.

Anyway - the photo came out marvelous! I love shooting Shoshannah, she is so much fun!!! :-)

scan0004.jpgI'm so proud of Sho!
