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?

I finally completed my Austin gigs! Miquel and I drove 8 hours out there to do Brooke's bridal portraits and figured we'd make a fun weekend out of it, as well as do some other gigs! Thank you to everyone who had me do a session - Austin is quickly becoming one of my most favorite cities to visit. #1 - so many close friends moved there/are moving there #2 huh? The city is ridiculously rad. #3 Hello? It's full of weirdos like myself! #4 Uncommon Objects has a home on South Congress - and I am serious when I say, I don't mind having my funeral held there. 

Here are some of my favorites from each session I did while in Austin! FYI - If your CD hasn't arrived yet, it went out today... and the rest go out tomorrow morning!

Of course I can't show any of the photos of Brooke in her wedding dress! :-) Gotta wait till after her Vegas wedding! Thank you to Miquel for doing the wonderful hair, and Kristen for assisting Brooke with the dress movement. LOL.

Thanks for making Caitlin looked so natural and as herself. You do know how to make her feel so comfortable. You made me even more excited to get the CD.

Heeeereeee's Hanna! She was a pleasure to shoot for her senior session and we had fun getting some interesting captures. I tried to incorporate some shadow play and I love how the one under the stairs came out.

Good luck to you, Hanna!
