a little slice of heaven
i have searched heaven and earth for some sexy lips to photograph, and as if brought down from an angel i meet a girl named heaven with the juiciest lips known to man. it also didnt hurt to have maris calderon magic makeup hands by my side. enjoy. (cheesy pun totally intended)
who needs an ass whuppin'?
this year i decided to get all my junk in order. light a fire under my ass and plow thru my business responsibilities so i could make time to shoot for myself. it only took 3 tv filled weeks to realize i needed to hire some one to kick my ass into gear. I was blessed to find the perfect ass-kicker for the job. Janie Hewson. when ever you need some constructive and tear jerking coaching call her!!!! marketingcreatives.net
just a pleasure to work with
this weekend the representatives at leaf asked me to test their brand new camera and let them know what i think. I THINK IT ROCKS. i also had the privilege to work with two of the most beautiful girls in austin. Ofcourse amazing hair and makeup didnt hurt.
