Kevin Schmidt's Ride













Last summer, one of Flower Mound's motorcycle cops's was hit by a motorist while in pursuit of another. He was seriously injured and there was a motorcycle benefit ride involving hundreds of volunteers. Since I love documentary work this was a perfect opportunity for me to contribute. These days Kevin is doing much better!

Jennifer's Wedding Day




This was an intimate weddin with maybe 30 guests but it was so sweet and elegant. It felt like being invited to a very special & private party.

Something with Personality


Yes, I do those boring professional headshots BUT I prefer to mix it up with a little personality, too, this singer with Diva G & High Maintenance was a fun one!

Erika's Seniors






I love shooting Senior's in high school. It's like a cool modeling shoot & it makes them feel good because they know I'm trying to make them look good. Erika was a great model, she did everything I suggested & more. We walked down Main St. in Grapevine & it was a lot of fun!

Carl Wedding





Here a few random favorites from my portfolio of the Carl Wedding. We did the bridals at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine & the ceremony & reception were at Reflections on Spring Creek in Plano.

Christina


I shot this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford on Sept. 29, 2007. The bride saw a similar pose on their brochure so this is our version. Well, one of several but they were all great!

Vietnam Memorial




Of course, this is always a somber place. There was a letter written from a soldier who basically was apologizing to his superior officer who had died that he hadn't lived the life he should have. It was like he was taking inventory of his life and trying to make amends. It was very touching.

Inside the Lincoln Museum



Cool Stuff at the Lincoln Memorial




It's hard to see but there is a marker for where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous speech. Also, the little museum had cool little things.

Lincoln Museum


Did you know there is a museum underneath the Lincoln Memorial? Neither did we! It's near the elevator on the left side as you face the monument. It's been there since the 80's. We were very surprised as we've been here many times!

Lincoln Memorial




Well, like many people, the Lincoln Memorial is my favorite monument because Lincoln is my favorite President. Plus, standing there, it just reminds you of so much, like the "I have a dream" speech, and all the other historic things that have happened on that spot including all the movies that are filmed there from Mr. Smith Goes to Washington to Forrest Gump and many more. It was interesting seeing the water drained from the reflection pool as I'd never seen that before. Kind of gloomy but different so I liked it. That's Byron in the foreground looking 'reflective'.

Not too Comfy!



I guess I have to admire that they are dedicated to their cause but 20 degrees would have me protesting in the summer, uh, if I didn't have a life.

I love the photo of the statue in front of the Whitehouse as the birds are flying away - it looks like they got spooked by the 'horse'. CHARGE!

The White House




Ok, so if you've been to DC you probably have a shot similar to this! We were freezing as it was about 20 degrees!

Marcy & Co.



Byron and I pose at a little hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurant. Later we went to a bar with my high school friend, Jules, and her husband. I've known Jules for nearly 22 years! Man we're old - well, compared to 14!

The Library of Congress




This library aint just books! It's actually one of the most beautiful interiors I've ever seen.

Help, indeed!


Sometimes, when you drive around, you just see something funny! Who can't relate to this after a late night?
