Chelsea Bain

I had the pleasure of hanging out with Chelsea Bain, country musician, all day for an assignment.  I worked with DITLO (Day in the Life of) to shoot what a day in Chelsea's life looks like.  Here it is, just click on the image to see the whole story.

Tornado in Moore, OK

I had the opportunity to shoot for Save The Children in Moore, OK.  I got there the day after the tornado came through.  It was like nothing I had ever seen before.  My mind just could not grasp what my eyes were seeing.  It was just too much to take in, too much to process.  So, I did what comes naturally and took images.  It sort of helped me separate from the chaos and helped me focus.  I was very sensitive in what I was shooting and the people in the frame.  For the portraits I did, I would go up and talk with the families for a while and hear their story, which they were glad to tell.  Then I asked permission to take some photos, in which all but 2 people said that they wouldn't mind at all.  I wanted to show the devastation, but also the resilience of the people.  I did hear some sad stories, but I was amazed to hear all of the miraculous stories.  I constantly heard things like, "My family and I were in the hall with a mattress over us and when it was all over the only thing still standing was our hallway."  and "my elderly grandmother just happened to be on the other side of town when the tornado demolished her home."  It was an extremely sad sight to see, but to hear that only 24 people lost their lives in that town, truly is astonishing.  Here is a little of what I saw and the amazing people I met.

Joule Video

I teamed up with my buddy Matt Hawthorne on this shoot that we did for The Joule Hotel in downtown Dallas.  He shot the stills, and I shot the video.  It was a great working with the kind ladies from Matchbox on this one also.  Shoot out to my amazing editor Matt Brundige, turned out great.

Bell Helicopter

What a pleasure to go out to Bell Helicopters training facility and photograph John Garrison.  It was absolutely amazing just walking around and exploring the 20 or so helicopters in different stages of completeness.  We had free reign to go and shoot wherever we liked.  It was so cool!  John was such a neat guy, and easy to work with.  My only disappointment was not being able to go up in the air in one.  Haha.

D Magazine - Nurses

I shot this feature for D Magazine that is out on stands now.  These are some of the top nurses in Dallas.  They were all very kind and fantastic to work with.
