Thanks!

I just do it as a hobby mainly. I have done a few paid things mainly just to support the hobby.

Yup that is my dad. I am assuming that you are the one that bought a house from him (or was going to) a while back?

Yeah I thought that was you, you were driving an accord before right? Finally broke down and got that G!

We bought a house in the subdivision your dad was working in before he was a salesman there ... we talked about you taking pics a couple times. I think he's in a new subdivision now, haven't seen him around?

I shoot with a Nikon D70s. I would look for one of those used somewhere. You can find them all day for about $600 with a nice lens. Hit me up if you need help looking.

Yup the Accord had about 190,000 miles on it and was really starting to show its age. I found the G for a deal that I could not pass up. I have been wanting one for a long time now anyways.

He is still working for Wall, they moved him down to a development in the Hulen area somewhere. He hates driving that far seeing that we live right around the corner from each other.



There is a shoot being planned as we speak for Sunday October 14th. Clear your calenders for that day. Its going to be a cruise, photoshoot, then go eat and watch the Cowboys afterwards. I will post the definite info once it has been planned. There will be several photographers coming out as well, so it should be a fun time.

I'll look into Nikon, but most of my friends prefer Canon.
