Holy crap its been a while...

North Texas Photographer Shane McDowellA whole lot has happened since the last post about a billion years ago. I will keep it short because it's late. Here goes... divorce, move, drama, love, job, drama, pee-boos! Divorced from Stacey, Moved to The Colony, Did I mention divorce?, Heather, Kick-ass job, Rusty, Tank and Foxxy! Got it? Good!

Now that you are caught up, check out some pics of Heather. I'm a little proud :)

Humpday rambling...

Today was my third day at the new job. So far so good :)

Last night while watching Idol, they showed a clip of Rachel (my little sister) and said they were saving the "best for last." A quick IM to mom lead me to a website for a newspaper in San Antonio that said they would be showing more of her tonight. I am putting this clip from her audition up for those of you who don't have Facebook and only read this site... the two or three of you who do, Enjoy :)

Be Mine...

Valentines Day is comng up pretty soon. I am offering a little special on my Facebook Fanpage if you would like to check it out. You can always call, text, or email me with questions too :) Ally came by to help me give you a visual of what your Valentines Day shoot might look like. You may not want to get as spicy as she did, but what husband or boyfriend wouldn't LOVE to have this hanging on a wall? You can see a couple of others (DO NOT OPEN THESE AT WORK) here.

Tomorrow starts my "day job." I'm pretty happy about it. It means a lot less sitting on my ass, hard work, more driving.... wait... I said I was happy about it, right? I am. It's been a whole year since I have worked for "The Man." Of course I will still be shooting most every weekend, so keep the calls coming!

I have said it before... I will say it again...

I HAVEN'T BEEN KEEPING UP WITH MY BLOG! Well, I'm posting something now aren't I? I have been pretty busy. I haven't even uploaded anything to the gallery (which I love to do) so unless you follow me on Facebook, you have been missing out on some of my new stuff. The gallery is pretty up-to-date at the moment so be sure to drop by and have a look.

So what's new? I decided that smoking makes me smell bad, so I stopped. I haven't smoked now in about 9 weeks and have no urge to start again. Photography has kept me pretty busy through the holidays, but I always have trouble booking sessions during the week. If I can't book stuff during the week, I might as well get a "day job" right? DONE! I now have a day job and I start next week. This may encourage me to write more... we will see!

At left is my current favorite picture of all time. I'm not sure why I like it so much, but I do.

Meet the Jones-es... for real...

Family PhotographyIt's been a while... yet again. Since Halloween I have been pretty busy. Found a great new photo lab, designed a new logo, and taken some photos. As of today, I am pretty much booked solid through the end of the month. This is a good thing :-) Thanks everyone! I have a bunch of photos to fill the gap between October and now, but most of them are bridals that I can't show you till after the weddings.

The pic at left is from this weekend's super-quick, mini-session with Kim, Kenny, Chopper and Sadie. Chopper and Sadie were my best animal models to date :-)

Happy Halloween... well... the day after anyways...

Had a great time... glad it's over. Zack has had his costume for a while. Ian on the other hand, didn't decide what he wanted to be until a couple of days before. Ian doesn't like to follow others. He doesn't want to be a pirate, a vampire, a superhero, no... he wants to be Bobby Light (the alter ego of Rob Dyrdek). If you don't know who Bobby Light or Rob Dyrdek are, well... buy a TV or Google it :) We had to piece his costume together from his closet, our garage, Wal Mart, and Party City. The final result is at left.

Halloween night I took my camera and lights to University Lanes in Denton and set up on the only blank wall I could. This wall was none other than the famous "Wall in front of the men's bathroom" lol. Have a look at the photos by clicking the photo at left or here.

Back in time...

Lifestyle PhotographyThis past weekend I shot Sarah with a vintage Mercury. I have been wanting to do some retro stuff for a while. I had everything set up and at the last minute, the owner of the car backed out on me. A call to my friend Chris quickly replaced the car and we were ready to go again. Special thanks to Calvert Racing Engines / Calvert Automotive for the car and the location. Thanks Randy for all the great conversation. Thanks to Sarah for freezing her rear off on a cold overcast day. Thanks to Elizabeth for the Pumpkin Chai Super Double Throwdown whatever that thing was from Starbucks. Click the pic to see the gallery.

Another Grown Up...

I have been photographing a lot of children lately. I love to photograph children. It's also nice to photograph a grown-up every now and then too, lol. I am officially two shoots behind in posting here, so you will soon have more to look at. Meanwhile, stop by Elizabeth's gallery, click the pic to go there!
