The First Project

Hello there!
God has blessed me with an exciting gift. I received my bachelor's degree in photography at Texas A&M University-Commerce, which I believe enhanced this ability A LOT! Sadly I've been on hiatus, kinda slacking for almost 3 years. No more though! I now embark on my first documentary project! Yay!
Simple concept and project. If you don't know what it is yet, I won't tell you, yet. A good portion should be done by September. You will see it on my website then, God willing. Please keep checking here or my facebook page (if you're a friend) as to when the project is done and on-line. God willing, it will go a little beyond my website, we'll see. The project consists of shooting mainly in Kingsville, Corpus Christi, Texas, and hopefully some in Dallas, Austin, and Conroe, Texas. Plans are also being made to shoot outside of Texas in the very near future, God willing. A little insight: not only is this my first body-of-work project, but it requires me to do something that i am terrible at... waking up before 7:15 a.m. and approaching people to ask them to do something they probably won't be up for. Keep following the blog to see how it's coming. You reading this will really help and keep me accountable in finishing it and doing a really good job. Also THANK YOU SO MUCH to those who have accepted working with me on this and are letting me invade your space and time. Your cooperation is going farther than you think! Thank you to Sam Fleishman and his photography, it was the final push that inspired me to do this, finally.

FYI: I'll be posting about once a week.
