COMING SOON: 'Princess' Addison Tiffany | Three Generations of Love | A Celebration of The Birth of Their First Born


My good friends Torrance and Callie asked me to come out to their home and document part of history and a new beginning in their home. Both celebrated the birth of their first child, Addison Tiffany, mid August of this year. (Strong Leo's such as myself - LOL - just had to throw that in their). What made this session special is because Callie's mother has been in town to embrace her second grandchild and naturally spoil her. I love both Torrance and Callie and wish them nothing but an abundance of love and blessings from God. Some of you may remember I was a groomsmen in their wedding two years ago. I have no doubt lil Miss Addison will be spoiled to no end.

These are a few of my favorite...more to come soon.

Incredible and Spooky Moon | Sunday, September 30, 2012



I'm not sure if any one else saw this but on my way home late Saturday night/early Sunday morning, the moon here in Kansas City projected a weird glow but eclipse look. You could see the moon vividly along with a perfectly large cloudy ring on the outside as well. One might think it looks like some sort of a reverse eclipse or a spooky portal. You be the judge.

And you might be thinking this may have been some sort of a lens flare...WRONG! My eyes were not deceiving me either.

I'm not sure how many folk could see this in the KC area but it freaked me out. This image was taken right above my house in Lee's Summit, MO.

Image details:
Canon 5D Mark II
Canon 15mm 2.8 Fish Eye lens
ISO 100, f18, 30" sec

Until next time, goodnight.

Raymond + Brandy's Sunday Wedding at The Rhapsody


Sunday weddings are very popular but this was one of our first this year. Outside of Sunday being a typical day of praise and worship for many, this day was a day of celebration for Raymond and Brandy. The wedding activities took place at the infamous The Rhapsody. What I enjoyed about this wedding were the kids, they kept me busy wanting photos of themselves. I thought it was cute. The wedding ceremony was officiated by a Bishop T.D. Jakes look-a-like (just my opinion). It's pretty evident that Brandy loves her some Raymond.

Some of the vendors for the day were:

Cake: Baked Expressions
Catering: Hill House Caterers
Bridal gown: Ida's Bridal

Congratulations to both of you and many blessings!

Above and below are some of my favorites.
