Welcome Get Shot By Tate!
I am so fortunate to have a job I absolutely love. The world is a mega-huge one, and I have assigned myself the best job in the world which is to shoot photos, share them with you, and repeat the same steps over and over for y'all to enjoy. Anyone who knows me well knows I'm an OPEN BOOK, but when I have that camera in front of my eye - I see everything in a very tiny window. When I determine what I captured is eye candy ready to share, that is when I really OPEN up to you as a photographer/friend. Thank you so much for your support in any way its given!

Because of the community (Deaf and hearing) allover the world, I have been chosen as Purple's Trailblazer of the Year for 2009! That is a major honor for me and it truly humbles me. I value what I do for work and definitely want to continue to dream bigger for everything I hope to accomplish and more. I am very excited to be able to contribute the prize money to the Louisiana School for the Deaf and their after school program. Need to plan on meeting with them sometime soon to discuss where I want the money to go to and how I can be involved directly!

What an amazing feeling. Thank you again to everyone. The other nine trailblazers are all amazing human beings and their charities gave me a run for the money! I was very honored to even be affiliated WITH them for such an awesome honor. The only one who couldn't make it was Ashley!!! The rockstar motorbike chick! I was SO disappointed and I hope to be able to meet her one day.

Check out the Purple
site for their latest - and you'll see my mugshot like below -

Meet Ashley who lives in Clinton, MS - a good friend of mine, Amanda Parker - referred her to me and sure enough - before I knew it, I was there shooting a set of senior portraits (among some other sessions). We had so much fun shooting these (Ashley and another senior, Morgan (her set is coming next for you to check out!) around Clinton!
