Dallas: Children's Medical Center

After one of our recent projects finished construction I decided to make a visit and snap a few photos of the building exterior.  We designed a color-changing lighting system for the entry canopy.  Although it was an overcast evening I was able to capture a really great night sky.

Dallas: Winspear Opera House

A special Valentine's Day post....
I've found myself running around taking plenty of shots during the day but never trying to capture dusk shots.  I love lighting and photography at sunset can be really beautiful.  With this in mind, I decided to run downtown to the Arts District and snap a few photos of the Winspear Opera House which opened last year.

Irving: Convention Center

Right before the SuperBowl we had som great 70+ degree weather so I ventured up to Irving to check out their new convention center.  It happened to be opening weekend and it was open to the public.  The facility is pretty cool; it's completely clad in copper panels and very geometric.

Dallas: Deep Ellum

For a Saturday in late January, the weather was unseasonably warm - sunny, 70+ degrees and clear skies.  I decided to spend a few hours of my afternoon exploring one of the neighborhoods in East Dallas.   Deep Ellum is/was known for its music - particularly jazz and blues.  In the early 90s the area fell into neglect, with many shops shuttering their windows.  However, it's slowly starting to make a comeback as a fun weekend destination for shopping, dining and entertainment.  The city's DART public train line even extended their line through the neighborhood with sleek new station stops.

Remix: HDR Shots

I thought I would go back through my achieves and remix/reprocess a few images for the fun of it.  I don't like to Photoshop my work because I think that's cheating, but HDR and other similar tools are okay.

Dallas: Toddler Will

Well, it's been quite a while since I last posted.  The holidays have been a bit hectic, particularly dealing with lots of work deadlines.  As Christmas was approaching, my coworker asked me to spend an hour or so trying to capture a few photos of her son for a holiday card.

Little Will is about 20 months old and really cute - as all little kids are.  I sometimes forget how much energy little kids have; Will ran around so much, and capturing smiles were hard at times.

Anyway, here are a few pics from our time together.

Fort Worth: The Stockyards

Yes, it's been a while but that is always the case.  Back in July my mom came to town and I took her to the Stockyards in Fort Worth.  Here are a few shots from that visit.

Cancun: Chichen Itza

I was lucky enough to be invited to Cancun at the end of July for a mini-vacation.  For this trip I was able to make it out to Chichen Itza.  I've been wanting to check out the Mayan Ruins, known as one of the 7 Wonders of the Modern World.  When we first arrived it was perfect sunny weather; but slowly, we saw dark, ominous storm clouds roll in.  I took advantage of the sky conditions to grab some interesting shots.  Then it started pouring.

Dallas: Uptown

I have gotten so busy with work and other things so I find that updating a blog is near impossible.  It sucks because I would love to update this site weekly.  Here are a few shots I captured wandering around Uptown.

Orlando: Disney

It's been a crazy busy summer and although I have a lot of photos I can post, I just struggle to find the time to do it.  Last week I spent a few days in Orlando for work.  I stayed at one of the Disney resorts adjacent to Epcot and my business party was treated to a private dinner and drinks, followed by a private viewing of their nightly fireworks.

Cancun: The Beaches

Another long overdue post - finally!  The last month has been crazy and I haven't really had the chance to take many photos.  I spent 5 days in Cancun last week so here are a few shots from the beach.

Charlotte: Holden's First Birthday

I was able to take a trip to Charlotte to be part of my godson's first birthday!  It was a great visit and I managed to capture a few nice shots.
