I just looovvvvveeeee..... everything about photography! The creative side as well as the technical side of it. The more I immerse myself into photography, the more I am drawn to it. I am constantly looking for opportunities to expand my skills by challenging myself to get out of my comfort zone and to find myself as an artist. With that, I am starting a series called Street Photography where I will just hit the streets and capture anything and everything interesting through my lens. Below is just some of the pics I took at a recent art festival here in the DFW area. More to come in this series...
Another for my personal series. Meet Seryn a five member folk band from Denton. They were pretty cool. Multi-talented band members playing all sorts of instruments. You can go to their website and check out their material. Of course Victor being the guitarist he is, thought their tube amp was super cool (you'll see below).
ta..da..COOL? Yes? No? I personally don't know much about tube amp other than they produce a warmer sound I think but man, do I love the rustic look of their amps.
the crowds just enjoying and soaking in their music...
my favorite....it feels like it belongs on the cover of a CD(hint!hint) ;)

Giving back to my community is very dear to my heart. People give in so many ways. Some people give money, some give things, and like me now, some give their services. I couldn't be happier to have the chance to give back to my community through my photography.
A couple of times out of the year, I will donate my services to non-profit organizations as well as to deserving families. So stay tuned if you or someone you know runs a non-profit or knows a deserving family within the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I will be holding contests in the near future for you to submit your deserving nominee of choice. Details of the submissions will be given at that time both on my facebook and right here on my blog. To not miss out on this contest, make sure to follow me on facebook or you can subscribe here to my blog.
My first GIVE BACK of the year was to First United Methodist Church of Frisco, TX which also happens to be my church family. When Pastor Jason approached me about taking some pictures for the church, I was elated. Now, FUMC Frisco was a deserving candidate not just because its my church family(although that plays a huge role, wink!wink!) but this very church does so much for the community. They are known throughout this area as a place to go in time of need. They even have a team of early responders called H.O.P.E that was immediately deployed to assist folks in the recent tornado disaster in Lancaster. Seriously, they do so much good for the community that it would take writing an encyclopedia to list it all out. I was given the privilege and honor to capture some pictures of my church family members from our Palm Sunday service as well as our Eggstravaganza event. FUMC Frisco has some of the most caring, loving, friendly, selfless and dedicated people I have ever met. They were so gracious for allowing me to capture them in some of their most intimate and vulnerable moment in prayer with our Heavenly Father. For that, I thank you and I hope you like the pictures.
Here is just a taste of some of the great shots captured that day. To view larger, just click on the image itself.

And last but not least, the cutie-pie's of the day....
Wow! March was a super busy month for me but, it is also a very special month for me because it is the month of my daughter's birthday. Victor and I knew we wanted to do something special for her but it took me forever to come up with a plan. There was so much to consider the weather, the theme, the setting...etc. We all know what kind of crazy weather we can get here in Texas in March.
So off to the drawing board to come up with a few options for the hubs to pick from. We finally decided on a flower theme since March is officially spring time and when I think of Spring, I think of flowers. And my, oh my! does Texas have some really beautiful wild flowers lining up the roadsides and fields. We also had her party at home because we wanted a more intimate feel where we get to interact with our guests and not have to worry that we had 7 minutes left to the venue. We also had Gregg the Balloon Guy provide the entertainment. He was super nice. The kids loved him. He was great at twisting balloons and his magic show was super entertaining for both kids and adults alike. The birthday girl even got in on the action and helped him out on a magic trick!!!
So with that all said, below are some pictures of my angel Daniela's 3rd birthday. She had a blast and that's all that matters to me. Though... she is asking for it every weekend now ;) I guess that means we did good. A very special thanks to the hubs for helping make this happen and to all our friends big and small for helping us celebrate Daniela's birthday. For friends and family who could not celebrate with us in person, we missed you dearly.
