More Old Pictures…

Well, I decided to thumb through some more old photo files, and I came up with another random sampling to share. This group runs from about 2004 to 2009, and includes magazine feature and cover shots, test shots, concert shots and personal project shots. It really is just a random sampling of stuff that caught my eye…

This is a photo of the Texas Star ferris wheel, shot with my Holga, probably shot around 2004 or 2005.

Comedian Carlos Mencia photographed in 2006.
This is a test photo I did of myself, the day before I shot the album cover for the last Rhett Miller solo album. I don’t normally do a lot of testing for specific shoots, but this one required me to get a very particular look.
I forget this guy’s name off the top of my head (I’m sure a quick google search would find it again), but he was the keyboard player for Cat Power. I shot her concert a few years back for The News.

This lady was the oldest active professional female bucking bronco rider in the world when I shot her several years back for a magazine cover story. Her name is Jan Youren and she was inducted in to the Cowgirl Hall of Fame in 1993. In this photo, I captured her picking herself up and dusting off after falling from a horse.
This is the Denton banded Mount Righteous. The group is about ten members strong. Because the band is so big, they were a challenge to shoot! I think it turned out well, though…

Another Mount Righteous shot from January 2009. We found an abandoned car dealership and used my Profoto AcuteB 600r packs to light the band. I wanted to do something fun and different with the photos, to match the band’s style and sound. I think I succeeded.
This is Daniel Folmer, a local folk and pop singer.
Play and Skillz, a Dallas duo that has produced hit singles for some of the biggest acts in the world. They even have a grammy to prove it!
Another Dallas band… Airline. We all had fun on this shoot!
