I have had several responses of people interested in the Ennis Bluebonnet mini-shoot, so I am setting a date and schedule below. This shoot can be for families, bridals, engagements, or anything else! I do limit each session to 5 people without additional fees. Also, if you know someone not on my fan list that is interested, please have them email me directly at photography@lyncca.com and I will add their appointment manually.

The date is April 25th, starting at 10:00am. Each session includes the following for $125.

- 20-30 minute mini session
- High-resolution images on CD with print release

I will post the exact location closer to the date after speaking to the Ennis Chamber of Commerce to find out where the best locations are.

For this photo session, because appointments are limited in supply, I require a $50 retainer that can be given to me in person, mailed to me, or paid by paypal to photography@lyncca.com (please contact me with questions.) I do understand things can happen, so I will allow you to reschedule if necessary. Also, if there are weather problems, all retainers will be refunded.

Please reply with the time you would like to sign up for:

Yesterday I decided to go visit the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens “Butterflies in the Garden” event.  The butterflies were beautiful and flying around free in the conservatory.  A couple were aiming for my head, I swear!

These are my favorite shots from the day.

During my week in Vegas, I got online to one of my favorite photography forums and asked of a location that I would be able to go take pictures that was open in the evenings. It was suggested to me to visit Red Rock Canyon. This is a 17-mile round trip drive through absolutely beautiful desert scenery.

When I originally started learning about photography, I started out like many people taking pictures of nature, architecture and anything else I found of interest. I quickly found after getting over my embarassment of setting up a tripod in the middle of a public street, that I absolutely LOVE night photography! The vivid colors that the lights put out really intrigue me.

I have also been lucky enough to travel to many places as part of my career. Last week, I went to work in Las Vegas for the week; and what better city can you play with lights, than Vegas?? My poor feet worked hard for these pictures. I covered a good portion of the strip; and I plan to go back and get some more on my next trip. Enjoy!

There is something about freezing water in motion that is so fascinating!  Everyone has seen these images a hundred times, but it seems every photographer must still try their hand at it.  After 207 photos taken and my kitchen covered in water, this is the one image I am really happy with!  I will try it again now that I got the basic technique down to see if I can do better.

Geeky photography info:  Nikon D300, Sigma 105mm macro, f/9, 1/250. Off-shoe flash, 45° camera right, bouncing off poster board.  WB: Tungsten for blue color.
Post processing: Crop, sharpen, enhance vignetting.

Anyway, enjoy!
