sharing the limelight...

What a special thing for a father and daughter to share the same birth day. It may seem like you have to share the limelight (and she will always win), but it's really something momentous that you will always share together. Finishing the day out with one more Happy Birthday Tyler and Pyper Tyndell...

white star laundry...

Tried out a camera that I have had for about a year, but hardly shot; a Polaroid One Step Red Stripe. This is a shop downtown Greenville, that I have photographed many time with several cameras...

time for rest...

The perfect end to a wonderful day...

warming up to the Impossible instalab...

This is an image originally taken with my Fuji X100S camera. I tranferred it to the new Impossible 600 film using the Impossible Instalab. To be honest, I have struggled getting the exposure/contrast correct on the Instlab. With the help of one of my Twitter friends, Patrick Clarke, I think I am getting the hang of this. This image was warmed the entire time (under my arm) during development using the Impossible cold/hot clip. I love the red tones that are the result of this warming...

came home to this today at lunch...

texas...

Didn't have the best of luck with photos on the day of the Texas State Fair. This is one of my favorites because of the ominous look in the sky. The heat was unbearable, the clouds were forming and it finally started raining soon after this photo. After all these years of living here, the unpredictable Texas weather never seems to surprise me...

breaking down barriers...

Saw this gentleman sitting outside the Old Red Museum in downtown Dallas. He was enjoying the afternoon while reading a book. I find it fascinating how you can approach someone with a Polaroid camera and they almost always say yes to a photo. Something about the camera breaks down the barriers that exist in our lives...

unashamed...

regardless of our beliefs, we will always lead more productive and fulfilling lives when we are unashamed...

an afternoon with my girls...

Sadi was in town this weekend. Cooler weather and I got to spend the afternoon eating out, shopping and drinking coffee with Maci, Sadi & Pyper. A fun day indeed...

the end is near...

It ended before it ever began...

mckinney cafe...

Got a new-to-me camera (Polaroid SLR 680) on Monday and I finally got a photo of one of my favorite signs that I have never photographed...

sunday afternoon together...

Nothing better than spending time together over coffee on a beautiful fall sunday afternoon...

whitewashed wood...

Used my Fuji x100s to take the image and printed it to the PX680 film via the InstaLab. Wanted to see how well the whites would show up. Really like the overall look/feel of this image. Another one that goes well with the wood border.

from another time...

Believe it or not, I saw this today on my way back to work at lunch. Was really wishing that I had my SX70 with me, but then I remembered that I have the instalab. Captured this with my iPhone and then printed it tonight after getting home...

pre-dinner photo...

Snapped this one before we headed out for dinner tonight...
