Street and Urban Photography
Have you ever looked at something so often that you feel like you’ve seen all there is to see? It is really easy to feel that way about many things in life: people, places, problems, people… We’ve looked at it from every angle, thought it through from every perspective and concluded that there is no […]

I have to admit that I have always had a fascination with custom cars. Maybe it is because I grew up when the West Coast music scene had become a phenomenon with artists like Ice-T, Too Short, and NWA but seeing those classic Impalas, Cadillacs, and Chevys fascinated me.

Since moving to Houston over 15 years ago, I’ve rarely spent any appreciable time in areas outside of my own or those surrounding the areas that I typically visit.

I didn’t grow up celebrating Christmas but I’ve always enjoyed seeing the beautiful Christmas lights and displays around the city. This year I decided to go checkout Magic Winter Lights in La Marque and was not disappointed. They have a lot of really great displays (including a Chinese Acrobatic performance), rides, and carnival type food […]

Memorials are something we often see, sometimes overlook, and occasionally ignore but some just grab your attention and don’t let go. Recently, while returning from photographing the sun rising over the San Jacinto River, I noticed this ghost bike at a nearby intersection. The strange thing about this bike to me was that I had […]

Have you ever tried something and failed? If you’re human then I already know the answer (sorry perfectionists) and, more often than not, we work very hard to minimize and hide our failures while emphasizing and exploiting our successes. We don’t like to be embarrassed or allow our flaws to show as judgement is often […]
