Nathan Wakeboarding

Nathan Wakeboarding

This is my older brother Nathan wakeboarding on Lake LBJ in Austin, TX. During this photo shoot, I realized why I love photography so much. Each one of these photographs immortalizes a moment that can never be repeated. Sure, Nate can do another jump, but it will never be quite like this one:



The other interesting thing about boating photos is how much the light changes. When we face one direction, Nate looks like a silhouette, but driving the other direction gives him a traditional portrait look.

Jordan does Ballet, Modern, and Chinese dance. It was really neat to have such a variety.







Jordan told me that she has trouble making "normal" faces in photos, but that her mom would really like a decent looking one.

So we tried...



And tried again...



And finally...



This one's for you, Mom!

The most amazing shoot ever! Cyclists

The most amazing shoot ever! Cyclists

Bobby and Joe are both bike racers. Taking these photos was such an amazing experience for me, as I saw the beautiful Utah mountains in a different light, worked with two talented cyclists, and was actually able to get nice photos in something I'd never done before. If I could get enough business, I would be happy to do cycling photos all summer! So if you know anyone that might like to hire me...

I'm don't think I can say anything else to give this shoot justice, so I'll let the photos do the talking now.

Vanessa Yoga

I've done Yoga once, and I lasted 10 minutes. Seriously, it may not look that intensive of a workout, but I didn't have what it took. So, I have a lot of respect for Vanessa here. She's actually done this as a hobby devotedly for a while, and plans to get certified this summer to be an instructor.

I think the breathing in yoga is relaxing, but look at that first pose! Who knew you could balance like that? I'm baffled. But being the photographer was nice :)
