Saturday was a fun filled day for me! AJ & Erin are such an adorable couple, married three years and still in love! We walked around my favorite parts of Bricktown and got some awesome shots.... I question is... Are you willing to ask her again? The last photo proves that! Be Yourself - Be Happy!

Saturday after lunch, I spent a few hours shooting with the most delightful and beautiful girls. We were working on some head shots for gifts and using the downtown area. The wind was so awful, we took shelter in the Cox Convention Center and were able to finish with some outstanding shots... sans the wind blown hair typical of Oklahoma. The first two cuties belong to another member of Photo-Therapy, Terri Baily (VAL Photographic Services) while the others are close friends of the family. So next time you spot these models parading the latest fashions from Milan, remember you saw them here first!

I was a very bad boy on Thursday night... after teaching a photography class, I ventured out to the Speak Easy to listen to Cami.
After much prodding, she told me the CD is done and is on the way to duplication! I'm so stoked! I can't wait for a full album of her wonderful sultry voice. Here is the last shot of the night... a exhausted band, still in great spirits!

A child's smile has the power of a thousand suns to warm your heart!

Tonight's shoot was exhausting and... I would not have missed it for anything! I had the unique pleasure of working with four other amazing photographers that volunteered their time and talent to the Canadian County Autism Support Group. The idea came from Wendy Eagan, to provide studio portraits in a setting that was familiar and comfortable to the children. The group of photographers grew and when the date came, five local shooters shown up to help. I would like to give special Thanks! to Steve Maupin, a special needs certified photographer, for guidance before the shoot. We all had a blast and discussed all the wonderful children we met over coffee afterwards. With tired feet, sore backs and exhausted bodies... we were all uplifted by the smiles, hugs and laughter of the kids. I will sleep well tonight! While I spend most of my time entertaining the kids, setting lights and poses, I managed to get a few "off the cuff" shots of the crew. Please check back often for the links to some of the finished portraits.
