It was about this time last year when I decided that I had a problem in my life that needed resolving. My clients had more of my pictures of their children, families, babies and seniors hanging on their walls than I did. Tis sad, but true. My walls were baren. It was at that point in time that I resolved that 2011 would be my year to fix that issue, but how? I had no skills in interior decoration. How would I know what to put up or not?
And then like an angel, Tana Blades LeMay, founder and owner of the WILD SORBET HAND PAINTED CUSTOM FRAME COMPANY, came to speak at our local guild meeting about DESIGN. She made design make sense, which as confounded as I was, seem like a divine miracle.
After the meeting, she hung out afterwards and we spoke. She made mention that her company was hosting a contest with the winners (and runners up) having a chance to have their images published in the 2012 WildSorbet Catalog.
So long story short…
Look A WHOLE Full Page!
Tana helped me pick this striped frame to go with my daughter’s room decor.
And did I mention… my image got a WHOLE FULL PAGE!
(Thanks Linda Simms, of Word Photography, for taking our picture. The best thing about being at a photographer’s conference is that you will always find a photographer who will take your picture for you.)

What a FUN session!
While we met at Buffalo Bayou Park, and we stayed there for awhile; the fun didn’t begin until my little friend showed me one of her FAVORITE places… her trampoline. And if we were going to become real friends, I would need to grab my camera and come play… which I did… which WAS SO MUCH GREAT FUN!
AFTERWARDS, we went to the Heights to a spot that we had scouted a week before during our consultation session… by then, my little friend was happier and we had some of our best images from the day.
I am so happy that this couple found and chose me as their photographer.
THANKS!

My niece came to Houston this weekend to tour the Rice University campus. She is one of the few people in the world who actually has an opportunity to attend an Ivy League school; she’s incredibly smart, works hard, and her parents have been saving up forever. It was making my head dizzy hearing about all of her choices between Cambridge, Columbia, Standford, etc. She’s also just a junior and 16… and 5 foot 11 inches, which actually has not a whole lot to do with her massive intelligence and drive, but is the reason she is crouched down.
(Before lunch at a somewhat busy restaurant…)
Me: Are you ready to have your picture taken? We should do it before you eat.
Sister-In-Law: Are you going to do it here? (Looking around the table.)
Me: No, I’m going to take her out back somewhere.
(A puzzled look came across my nieces face.)
Niece: We are going to do it here?!! By the garbage?
Me: Yes.
(A short old Mexican busboy[man] walks by with a bucket of dirty dishes in his hands.)

(My Niece)
So there you go… my beautiful niece… by the garbage… which you’d only know that she was by that because I told you… which I am only telling you because I thought it was funny. It’s been a long while since I used to get embarrassed about shooting in odd places or asking people to do awkward poses. For me, it’s all about getting the picture. (Not so bad seeing how I got this in 3 clicks, in the back of a Mexican restaurant, shooting someone who didn’t even expect I was going to photograph her that morning because she was focusing on other things like her AP Chemistry and US History class and visiting Rice University. I am looking forward to next summer when I can photograph her properly for her senior pictures… I may have to borrow a ladder.)
