Day 3 in Tyler...

After staying at Chris's house and having lunch with Jenny, Sam and I ran around town running some errands. Then I met up with Kelly and her mom for a shoot we booked about a month ago, when everyone found out I was coming up to visit. We took a drive downtown to some cool spots that I remembered from before. I was really excited about the way some of the shots were coming out and so were the clients. I even put Sam to work and hold my speedlight since I could not find any outlets to use my strobes.

here are a few shots from her shoot...




after the shoot and a little dinner we made it out to "Where's Ruffus" to meet up with a few people. I was pretty surprised to see all the familiar faces at the bar, except it was really crowded inside the place and the atmosphere was just not my style. So we moved the party back to Chris's house and had one last night of good times. Here are a few picture's from my last night of partying....
I ran into Emily at the bar...

Drunk people on Stickam is the best!


in the morning as I was leaving I had to snap a shot of the house...
staying there two nights in a row and having so many good memories made me a little sad, but I have the memories and pictures to remember them.

Day 2 in Tyler

WOW, its been some day. Its only 2:30 in the morning and we are all either drunk or asleep. Today kind of started out a little slow and sad, I was dragging all day, specially after receiving the call about the canceled photo shoot. BUT when a door closes, another opens and tonight was an intensely fun evening. The day included a bit of manual labor, first with working out at Premier Fitness with Sam, we did a leg work out and OMG I thought I my legs were going to give out on me. Then Sam was called to go and help move an outdoor swing from his sisters house to his mom's house. So we did that and then tried to relax and watch some TV. After a few hours passed I convinced him it was time to go out and see a few friends.

We ended up at On The Border to have some margarita's...


what happens when drunk people video...


THEN we moved the party to Chris's house....
another silly video of us playing drinking games...


I seriously LOVE J-RAE!

















I thought the DGE house was early on Christmas, but I'm pretty sure that the Sirianni's beat us on that. Look at their amazing tree and ginger bread house!


I SERIOUSLY MISSED NIGHTS LIKE THESE!

Day 1 in Dallas and Tyler

Well the trip to Dallas and Tyler has been eventful so far. I had a nice relaxing flight high above the clouds on my way to Dallas. I surprised that I had no problems at the airport with security or with my luggage. I arrived in Dallas and my friends Sam and Jenny picked me up at the airport, which is hilarious because they both get lost in Dallas...but we had a great time and had some amazing food at Cafe Brazil. Then of course did a little shopping, sadly I didn't really see anything I wanted. The night was spent in Tyler, and I think in less than an hour I saw around 10 people I knew either at Starbucks or Buffalo Wild Wings. Then we did a little trip down to Sports Zone to see Katie and Will. All in all my first day of the trip was pretty nice....today should be interesting too, I was suppose to have a shoot in the after noon but it got canceled due to some weather and scheduling problems, but I still have my shoot tomorrow, and Thursday.

here are pictures from last night....
