Wedding shoot

Steven and Amy got married in November 2009 at the LDS San Antonio Texas Temple.

After I shot pictures of this wedding, I knew I wanted to marry my now-wife, Emilee. I proposed the following month on the day before she flew back to Reno for Christmas. We got married on March 20, 2010. Now, we're expecting our first child on March 14, 2012.

Little girls

There's something sweet about a little girl's smile. They're beautiful.

A family asked me if I'd take their family portraits for a holiday card. I hope they liked them.

Victoria's own little fighter

Little Rene Sierra, 9, of Victoria, was diagnosed with cancer at age 4, but has been on remission ever since with yearly MRI's. We followed him to a Spurs game for Cancer Survivor's Night, where he joined more than 100 other child survivors for an evening of fun with his family.

Cutting hair for a cause

Memorial High School students wanted to help the Rotary Club raise money to purchase vaccines to eradicate polio. If the school raised more than $1,000, student Alex Davis and teacher Bob Sheeran agreed to get their heads buzzed. It was broadcast throughout the entire school.
