The time has come - New blog

2011-09-30T07:59:00.002-05:00

Hey guys, so I have a new blog. A couple new blogs in fact.

My commercial and consumer identities have grown so much and at the same time, so far apart that I felt it was time to do this. Additionally my two new blogs: Weddings and Commercial and built in a completely integrated into my new web site designs. Here they are:

Christine and Andrew Post Wedding

2011-09-24T09:14:00.000-05:00

Have you ever heard of a trash the dress shoot? This was one essentially, although the dress went home unharmed. I call it a "post-wedding" or "day-after" shoot. Still in the wedding gown and the groom can wear whatever he wants. I highly recommend them, it allows for a relaxed shoot that's not the pace of the wedding day and it's a lot of fun. Plus the extra time and need to not worry hurting a dress really make for fun and creative photographs.

Here's christine. We got some shots of just and and some with Andrew. We did not do a bridal shoot, so this essentially took it's place.

These shots were at the McKinney Cotton Mill in Mckinney, TX

Note the strobe under the planks. Allowed the ground to be visible and made the photo much more dramatic. I got shots without it too.

I had to pull of some crazy lighting here. But I love the way the clouds came out looking.

Comanche County Memorial Hospital - Part 3 of 3

2011-08-22T10:00:00.000-05:00

Day 3. Feeling the effects at this point. But still charging strong.

Babies! Now this was a real patient and mother. Photos with consent of course. Doesn't she look amazing for just having a child same day?!!

Rehabilitation by swimming.

They had a mock-up grocery market which allows patients to practice everyday tasks.

Kiddos

They had a chapel there for prayer. I thought that was so neat. The man in the foreground is a minister and the background is a man who was actually seeking prayer.

Well that's it. Day three complete and I got to go home to my wonderful wife.

Happy Birthday to Sarah!!

2011-08-21T07:00:00.001-05:00

Sarah is my absolutely wonderful and gorgeous wife.

Here's a photo of her. It's a couple years old, we should probably update it. But it still gives you an idea of how beautiful she is. Sarah has been such a support to me and my photography career. I certainly owe a lot to her and of course Jesus Christ my lord and savior for the success I've had as a photographer.

Sarah has her own blog. It's called Carroll Creations .com She post recipes, sewing instructions and etc. You'll see a lot of my food shots on there of the creations she makes.

Machine medicine selector. Pretty crazy.

Comanche County Memorial Hospital - Part 1 of 3

2011-08-18T09:01:00.002-05:00

I had a three day on location shoot at a hospital. Here's the photos.

I tried to narrow them down as much as possible but there's just so many. Any shots that show patient faces are fake patients, but the surgeries are real. I was in open heart surgeries. Pretty nuts.

Don't worry, this is a fake patient.

Forney Powerplant

2011-08-16T09:12:00.000-05:00

I took aerial photos of the powerplant in Forney Texas. I had a pilot in specific who would refer to this place as the "cloud factory". On the clearest of days there would sometimes be a little white cloud above this place, haha.

It's really hard to show scale on things like this. Look at the handrails at the top of the stacks. That gives you a little idea of how a human would measure up to this massive structure.

St. Edwards Aerials

2011-07-27T12:22:00.000-05:00

Made a trip to Austin to get some photos of St. Edwards University.
It's a beautiful campus. If you went there or know someone who did, leave a comment. I'd like to know.

Here's a high altitude shot that shows downtown Austin, the capital of Texas.

Kevan and Alex Engagement

2011-07-21T17:52:00.000-05:00

Kevan is an architect, so naturally we shot their engagement photos in downtown Dallas, and made sure to work in a little architecture. I'll be photographing their wedding as well.

See my orange gel strobe behind them. Mmmm.

Then they decided to walk on the water. Don't ask me how they did it. I'm just a photographer.

Allmand and Lee is a law attourney firm in Fort Worth and Dallas Texas. I got to take head shots for the company. This in particular is the Fort Worth office. I set up a mobile studio in a conference room and we go from there.

The wave photo. This is the whole office. This photo is a "tradition". They've had it every year.

Kori took her bridals in Arlington, TX. The first part were at Veteran's Park.

Summer fun. Underwater.

2011-06-29T14:49:00.002-05:00

A little over a couple years ago I bought a waterproof camera for my point and shoot. It's been well worth it. This is my niece Jessalyn.

My brother in-law Alec and his son Griffin.
(the battery died before I could get a good photo of my other nephew connor, we'll blame Sarah for that one, also this will be a test to see if she reads my posts. :)

Microchips

2011-06-28T13:03:00.004-05:00

Microchip Macros. Pretty much the extent of what I can tell you about this shoot is it's in the technology world, a world of secrecy and competition. What I can tell you is that these things were small. I mean really really small. It's was quite the challenging shoot. How small? you ask..

See the regular sized golf tee (that I happened to have in my pocket). See the black looking dust speck? Well that's a plastic container... the microchip is inside that. (the little dot of gold)

And here's what the photo looks like of it.
Gotta love a challenge, haha :)

AMA motocross nationals - Freestone Raceway

2011-06-27T14:43:00.002-05:00

Motocross is a sport I raced growing up. The most prestigious tour, the Outdoor Nationals comes to Texas now annually. It's a blast to watch these guys. Hot, but still a blast. Shown above is Christian Craig. A normally top 20 rider, he surprised everyone by leading several laps of the first moto. He had the only clean bike out there. I didn't take many pics as I wanted to relax and enjoy the racing, but here's a couple more.

Defending supercross champion Ryan Villipoto charing through the pack behind veteran Kevin Windham

Scotty Winnerstrom. I used to ride with and hang out with Scotty back in the day, so I needed to get a shot of him before I called it a day shooting. He doesn't run with the leaders, but he still qualifies for the races weekly which is a pretty big deal considering the competition out there. Good to see him.

And Chopper. My childhood and still best friend who between him and his dad got me into motocross.

Storms 2011

2011-06-26T21:57:00.000-05:00

This year has been one of the craziest years for storms for North Texas and the central plains, but we're on the decline now. I've had the chance to storm chase twice with some meterologists. That was a blast, although extremely close and following the right cells, I've still yet to see a tornado. One of those things I'd like to do before I die. Here's some more shots from this season.

This actually turned into a tornado, but streets didn't allow us to keep up with it and see it. Bummer.

Double Rainbow - all the way - OMG!

2011-05-12T08:30:00.001-05:00

Yes, it's a funny youtube video, but it's also a spectacular natural phenomenon. It was quite a pleasant sight from the kitchen window, and I quickly drove Sarah and I to an open area so I could see the whole thing.

This is it in our neighborhood! On our street.

From the car window.

Panorama double rainbow

Neat looking mammatus clouds followed.

Locker Room Clothing

2011-05-11T08:51:00.000-05:00

Locker Room clothing hired me to take some fashion photos for their children's clothing line. They have some really neat clothing. The kid models were adorable too. It was a solid plain white background shoot, with cut-out intentions (see her site).

Solid white is always a little challenging and on top of that we had very little space to work with, but we made it work and in the end we were both really happy with the photos.

Here are some more shots:









Here is the designer Dominic McCullough:

Spring time macro fun

2011-05-10T08:47:00.000-05:00

Spring is upon us.

Which means a few things, but best of which is that flowers are blooming and bugs are coming out for photos. haha. These shots are actually from last season. I hope to get out again this year for a pleasure shoot. I don't do many of those anymore.

Reed Parsons on the cover or Director of Maintenance.

Reed is the DOM at Longhorn Helicopters, a flight school in Denton. With the help of the school, I landed this gig, thanks Longhorn. We had a lot of fun shooting, and the editor was thrilled with the photos.

Here are a few other photographs from the shoot:

I always love commercial portraits, editorial photos for magazine covers and working in the aviation industry. This was a win all around!

Kelli Bridals

2011-04-29T00:29:00.000-05:00

A couple shots from her bridal shoot.

She looked pretty good for having the stomach flu. The shoot lasted about 10 minutes total and forced short by very unfortunate circumstances. I felt so bad for her. But she did get a huge discount, free digital files and a photo she was happy with, so I guess it's all good.

I had no idea they went through this transformation. But I had my macro lens out and followed the progress in my backyard. Pretty neat.

Vaupell Tubes

2011-03-30T08:45:00.000-05:00

This company makes tubes. Like the ones at the bank, but much bigger and for hospitals. They were particularly interested in shots of the padding material. I was a little nervous about this shoot, not knowing how to execute it, but let me say, I've never seen tubes looks so good. haha. Enjoy.
