Little Miss Sunshine and beauty

My fiance' Jim and I watched Little Miss Sunshine recently and couldn't stop laughing! If you haven't seen this film, it is incredibly touching and funny. It also reminded me of a pageant I photographed in Dallas, and the variety of girls competing for the Miss Young American Miss title in Dallas, Texas. I took this photograph of Rose Medina, just as the girls were going on stage to compete. I'd love your comments!

Cynthia & Mike's Engagement Session this week!

This week has been a blast, with two incredibly fun portrait sessions! (Bridals to be posted next week) Cynthia & Mike are a wonderful couple getting married this June. We did their engagement session on Sunday, and they had been apart all week long. They were so excited to see each other, and I think that really comes through in their pictures. I can't wait to photograph their wedding! I'm posting some of my favorites from the session.

More favorite images!

Incredible photos published on zonezero.com

I am so excited for my dear friend and colleague Winslow Martin, based out of Boston. His sweeping images of Armenia, a body of work that he has been developing and committed to for years, have been selected and published on one of American Photo Magazine's top 10 photo websites: http://zonezero.com

Anyone who is interetsed in photography and/or humanity HAS to see this work. It is so beautiful, moving and intelligently made, and in a culture and land that we, as Americans, rarely hear about.
