Mid-Summer Update

Yeah, yeah, yet another month has flown by… let’s gets straight into the update!

Photography – The summer wedding season started in June and I have shot 3 additional weddings with Christine. I also had a freelance job this past weekend and set up the Fresh Photography booth up at the Caroline Collective for the Lebowski Bash. Next stop for the FP booth will White Linen Nights on August 2nd in The Heights! We will be having a 3rd photographer, Emily, join us so stop by if you can (and leave in Houston). It is our biggest booth event of the year and is a lot of fun.

With all these weddings and busy weekends, I have not had a chance to focus on my personal photography projects – specifically my Downtown Polaroid Project and shooting the miniatures – but I have a break till mid-September (don’t damn hot in Houston in August for weddings) and hope to spend some time on these!

I did get a chance to make the Assignment Houston Flickr meet-up at the Houston Museum of Natural Science a couple of weekends ago and it was a blast! Look how big the crowd was!

Social – Been staying pretty low-key. Have gone out salsa-dancing a couple of times, had dinner/brunch with friends… nothing too thrilling! Oh, yeah, the Luau Birthday Party over the 4th of July weekend was great! We had a great crowd, wonderful food (Cuban-style roasted pork leg we cooked for 10 hours) and the birthday boys seemed to be pretty content. Separately, Kenny & I celebrated his birthday pretty low-key as well, just going out to dinner at the restaurant of his choice.

August will be filled with photo fun (I hope), some more dancing and a long girls’ weekend in Little Rock, Arkansas with my old college roommate. So look for photos from that trip on the next post!
