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!

A Random Snapshot

Right now, I'm editing Brooke and Michael Beach's wedding that took place in Denham Springs, LA in June. I came across this shot I had snapped of my wife, Sarah, and I in the midst of the reception going on.

I love this shot of us!

I have been looking at your photos all night, I absolutely love this one! I have a newborn, 3 year old & 8 year old, I wonder if you have access to a big mirror to take a picture like this. My husband is in Iraq and this would be a cool photo of just us for him, just a thought! Let me know, please!

AUSTIN SESSIONS
08.09.09
THANK YOU to all who had me do some sessions over the last few days while I was in Austin. It was tons of fun getting to do them - and especially around such a cool town like Austin. People have asked me, "why don't you move to Austin???" As much as I love Austin, I still have more love for my homestate - Louisiana. Austin is my "escape" when I need to head out somewhere that's still "closeby" and with so many friends moving there from allover the states - there's only MORE reason to go visit!!!!

Check out these shots from my sessions AND the last three are just random shots I took around the Taco Xpress restaurant on South Lamar.

Hello I am a friend of Carletta from St. Petersburg, FL. She invited me to look at the picture that you took of her and Seth. Well that just peaked my interested so I began looking at the others that are on the site. The only thing I can say is WOW! You have such an amazing talent (which I am sure you are told often) but not only that it seems that each one shows the love of life you seem to have. I am truely in awe of the talent that God has given you! and Yes you are one lucky man to be able to have a job that you LOVE!! I can't wait to see all of the picts of Carletta and Seth!

Jaimie & Sabrina - Austin, TX

Location : Villa Antonio

Jaimie and Sabrina Valencia are hitched as of this past Thursday! I had a great time photographing their wedding at the Villa Antonio grounds about an hour outside of Austin. They're such an attractive couple and have been together for about seven years - so it was nice see them get hitched.

Congrats to the two of them!

Here's a preview of their wedding photos to come.

CONNER
08.04.09
Kim brought over her six year old dude, Conner, for a session at Maison Looziana and we had a ball. He is FULL of energy and his personality just shines. He reminded me of myself as a child, even doing the "McDonald's Drive Thru" act via the window in the old shack behind our home. I used to do the exact same thing with the window under my parents drive in carport growing up! SO MUCH FUN.

Thank you Kim! I got tons of great stuff of Conner, but here's a preview for you/y'all to check out!
