My mom taught me so much in life. She taught me to; pray first before making any decision, always look on the bright side, use my napkin, turn my feet out (I was extremely pigeon-toed growing up!), smile, be myself, have joy in my heart, laugh-out-loud, be thankful for my red hair because it made…
I’ve been shooting more and more film, and although I’d love to say that I always set up great photo shoots of the kids…I can’t say that! What normally happens is that I have 5 frames left on the end of a roll of film, and then I try and convince the kids they should…
Lindsey and I took the kids to the beach last month, wanting to have some quality family time to reflect back upon during the crazy busy summer months! I took the Contax 645, and had an awesome time shooting lots of film. I’ve been shooting quite a bit of color film (namely Kodak Portra 400…
It’s been a rough month for us to say the least. Lola has run a 104 fever 4 different times over the past month. We have had countless sleepless nights, a case of croup, the terrible stomach bug, and we all felt like we were dying from the flu! We are all FINALLY almost back…

While looking through some recent film work, this image struck me as a quintessential representation of our family. I am so lucky to have this beautiful wife, mother, singer, and artist in my life, as well as the children we are blessed and privileged to bring up together. Thanks also to so many family and…
I recently had the opportunity to visit Rome for Lia + Mark’s wedding at the Vatican. I have always been enamored by Europe in general, and Rome was certainly no disappointment. In fact, it’s beginning to rival Paris, Barcelona, and Texarkana (jk) as one of my favorite cities! Next time, I’ll definitely be bringing my…
On May 3, 2009, we got an email from a young college student about a possible internship. We were the brand new parents of Jack at that time, and were feeling completely overwhelmed by parenthood, work, managing a studio, and honestly…just life in general. Here is a little of what she wrote: “Mr. & Mrs….
