wordpress is snowing!
12/12/2009
i have to say that i really enjoy the little graphics that people put on their websites… i say people, but i mean the big web monsters who run these huge sites like “google” and “wordpress” and whatnot. i love how google is always festive and theme-appropriate. maybe there is a “best of google”?
anyway, all that to say that it’s snowing on the wordpress homepage. and it makes me happy.
i did a shoot for modern luxury the other night– and i am not allowed to post any of those yet, but i was fascinated by the interiors (like a kid in a candy shop with all of those fabrics and fixtures, i almost couldn’t contain myself) and after i’d sufficiently covered the routine shots, i went about taking photos of the walls.
you know that you’re a photographer when you see a shot, and you can’t help but shoot it, EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN’T THINK OF ANY EARTHLY REASON that you would EVER need that photo for anything…
and you still get excited. so here they are, my excitement.
and for press purposes, the bar is “bar celine” behind Park, the new restaurant on Henderson at McMillan. Awesome service, and the bartender is way educated on his drink mixing.
and a month passes

this is super embarassing
11/10/2009
hi, my name is jill and it’s been 2 months since my last blog. i guess life’s just been that good… or that busy? … i’ve been pinging between san francisco, denver, and finally in dallas for a really long, unsuspected shoot that just… keeps going. not that i would ever complain in this feast lest the famine begin next week. santa is just sayin’. my trip to denver was way too short, and i was way too tired before i’d even left dallas for the party.
anyway, back to business. i’ve been hoarding photos like gold for the last 2 months. i’ve discovered that being on a plane with my iphone in “airplane mode” is the best time to edit iphone photos… meanwhile sneaking looks at my email account and text messages (does anyone actually use airplane mode except for KG, who faithfully turns off her phone and forgets to turn it back on when she hits ground?) don’t call the airport security on me because i don’t obey the rules. just count it my karma because i’ve gotten half a dozen shampoo bottles taken away by the security fellas. what a horrible way to start an early morning.
all i can do is post a few… and promise that more are to come. these are just a few snapshots of my life that i’ve held hostage on my iphone.
without further ado and in no particular order, may i present my monday night camera dump:





and that concludes the grab bag of photos i’m including in tonight’s presentation.
cheers and have a good monday night folks.
some love from austin, tx
09/19/2009
i’ve been lucky enough to spend the latter half of my week and weekend in austin, tx. this was for both business and pleasure, meeting with a possible soon-to-be client, scouting the austin landscape for beautiful scenery, and catching up with the best of old friends from college and otherwise.
just for funsies, i’ve posted a few photos i snapped from my iphone.


just for funsies

this was last weekend’s photo opp. these folks are major fun, and i love to watch them interact.




awesome shoes!!
09/08/2009
so i’m not big into clicking around on blogs, so i’m just posting things i find really awesome. these photos were in an article regarding walking barefoot– as opposed to running shoes (or any other shoes) which buffer the foot from actually having to work and use the feet muscles we were born with to balance us and sustain shock. anyway, these photos are awesome. the actual story is at this link: http://www.livingbarefoot.info/2009/01/you-walk-wrong/



a little family shoot with some good friends
09/04/2009
this is noah, jacklyn, and asa caveny. they are brilliant, warm, generous, and some of my most favorite friends in Dallas. and this is their home. AND a few of these photos will be published in On Magazine. Hot, right?







more soaps
09/04/2009
so here are a few final images from our shoot… i have noticed that they look a little unsaturated. but i have tried to post these 3 times, and i’m just not going to web-saturate these so they pop. try to imagine it!
