Recently some good friends from Austin, headed back to El Paso to visit with friends and family. Christa and Jimmy are more family than friends and it is always so good to see them. Years ago, I had Christa in my Sunday School class. Now she has two great kids of her own with Jimmy. Connor, their youngest is a cut up and moves at the flash of light. Camryn their daughter is a beautiful child

I'm going to begin a series called Out Takes that hopefully folks will find useful when it comes to wanting some ideas on photography. These will also be posted on my Facebook fan page: High Noon Photography.This first one deals with an issue of folding a reflector. A friend had bought one and of course there is no instructions on how... to fold it back up. So, this is a demo on how to get the

Over the weekend I had two exceptional young ladies visit my studio. We did a mini session for a Christmas Portrait and Christmas cards.Sam and her younger sister are two beautiful and smart girls... they must get it from their mother who I spent a number of years working alongside of.We had fun teasing each other, and don't be fooled by their age, these two are seasoned pros at givin' da

I've completed another Christmas card template that I hope to offer clients.I'm kind of a tradionalist, green and red colors with Christmas Trees or snowflakes, a church or snow covered landscape when it comes to the holidays. But I've seen where more and more folks want something a little different. In fact browns and grays have become in vogue. I think black and white photography works really

Wow, its been too long since I've been here.I recently decided to put down the camera and develop new Christmas Card templates.This time of year can get busy with Christmas Portraits and Family Photography and I wanted some new looks for clients in El Paso and Las Cruces.I'm no graphic artist, but its fun to stretch yourself, plus save a couple hundred bucks from not buying templates. So far I've

A friend of mine, Tony, came over to see the studio and talk about old times. I hired him years ago as a photographer/editor. He now is an assignment editor (nice promotion) and doing a heckuva job.Tony produced a series on a young man who went to Iraq and left that war as a double amputee. The young man whose name is Adrian had been a star basketball player in high school. What Tony and viewers

I'd like for you to check out this really cool slideshow. These are some of my clients from past shoots.

This past 4th of July we took some family to Carlsbad Caverns. If you've never been there, this is an amazing Cavern system. The cave has over 300 entrances, I believe is 200 miles long and is still a living cave. Water along with other materials continue to grow stalactites and stalagmites. These pics are from the public entrance in the NPS. The cave here drops to 750 ft below the caverns

Some good friends took a trip to Disneyland and asked if we would keep an eye on their dog. She is very high strung...a furniture climber, urrrggh, but also very loveable. She doesn't know any strangers and is always looking to spend time with you.Anyway, I decided to dognapp her and took her into the studio for a shoot... a very brief shoot. I think bright lights and shutters clicking is not her

Some friends of mine and I went out last night to get some lightning shots. It really was a poor night, as there was lots of cloud cover and strikes that were often hidden behind the mountain or in the clouds. The weather though was one of those spectacular West Texas evenings. Cooling down to probably the 70's with a light wind. These mountains are at a Texas state park. They are known as the

This is the folo up to yesterdays blog about a late night shoot...We had a great moon last night. Almost like a harvest. Anyway, was out for about 2 hrs and only snapped 19 pics total... most as repeats. I couldn't drop the exposure on the moon for the life of me. I've not had this problem, but then again the shots are usually much tighter. I'm also wondering if a harvest kind of moon produces

I belong to a photography group here in El Paso called Megapixels. We decided at last minute to do a late night shoot tonight. We have been having a large spectacular summer moon this week. Our hope is that we can do some slow exposure shooting to get cloud drifts and some good detail of our local mountains with the moonlight reflecting light. If anything pics are worth posting, I'll get some up

Well here goes, my first official blog post. I guess I should start with maybe a brief bio.My name is Brent and I'm a photographer. I spent nearly 25 years in Broadcasting and had an amazing time doing so. For all that is wrong with this profession, there is also all that is right. I got a front row seat on witnessing life like few others ever will. I also worked with some amazingly talented and
