Diamond Lifestyle Photography.

Starting a new company that will be specializing in event and music photography.  You can find us roaming the clubs, concerts, and bars taking pictures of everyone there.  We will also be doing corporate events, mingling with the suits.  Whatever your needs are, we can cover it.  In the past I've done everything from house parties to Greenbuild.  Website will be coming soon.  In the meantime you can follow our Facebook page.

Cayden.

Cayden is a dirt biking manic.  We went out to the desert and just let him loose.  He rode one footed.  He stood up while riding.  I know to most this sounds pretty basic but let me remind you that Cayden is only 4 years old.  It was the first time I've taken pictures of anyone dirtbiking which is a surprise since I live in Arizona and it seems like everyone dirtbikes here.  It was fun.  Looking forward to the next session.  Family photo's of Cayden and his mom will be coming next.

Side note:  he only did a lap or two without his helmet and shirt.  It was just for the picture.  If you are riding, I highly suggest you wear a helmet.  It's all about safety.

The Hester Kids.

Here's the Hester kids.  They were easy to shoot cause I get to see them all the time since Hugh is my son's best friend and hockey team mate.  Also, Isabell is by far the best baby you'll meet.  She's all smiles except when the camera is out.  Luckly we were able to squeeze a few miles (and lots of drool) out of her.

Side note, I really need to stay on top of updating this page.  I have so much stuff that I should be posting on here but never get around to it.  I've decided that Every Monday will be blog day.  Hopefully it'll be more than just once a week.

Portrait Session With Cassie.

Last week I took some portraits of Cassie. At my wife's bridal shower, one of the gifts was a portrait session with me.  The bridal shower was in early December.  I just found out about the prize about two weeks ago so we scheduled a session.  The wind did not want to work with us.  I don't think it's ever been that windy before so we scheduled another session.  One in studio and one more on location so she doesn't have to be holding her hair back in the pictures.  The second photo is one of my favorites and it was just a test shot too.  You have to love the happy accidents.

New Website.

I have a new website. It's currently not finished but you can preview it here.  It should be fully functional very soon.  I now have a site that has e-commerce capabilities which will help out when doing portraits and  club events.  People can just go view and order straight from there.  Also, later today or tomorrow I will have another post or two to add to here.  We just went and shot a "Tacky Wedding Party" at Hoot Owl for someone's birthday.  That was a lot of fun.  I have a few hundred pictures to go through since my wife and myself shot the event.

Hip Hop Open Mic Night.

Last night I went to open Open Mic night at Copper State Tavern.  As the night went on the talent got better and better.  The bottom emcee was, in my opinion, the best of the night.  He killed it!

iPhone Pictures.

I finally got an iPhone.  I also got a whole bunch of apps for editing photos.  I've narrowed them down to two apps that I like; Best Camera and Photoshop Mobile.  These are some of the recent photos taken with the new phone.  I feel bad for my friends on Facebook since I constantly upload photos straight from the phone to there.
