Let's do something OUT of the BOX! hi. my name is tate tullier and i'm a photographer, and this blogsite is a way for you to kind of get to know me before we meet (or if we've met already, learn more about me). Year after year, I'm constantly pushing myself to really do things out of ordinary for my shooting approach. If you're looking to create cool & awesome images to treasure for years to come..... you're in the right spot!

Sarah and I finally designed and got some new business cards ordered! We decided to stick with 4by6.com since we love how their satin cards feel.

Check out the design! (I'm so glad I got Kerri to do my logo design two years ago! I love it)

It's been one week since we got home from Brasil and we miss it! It's been wonderful being back home to our normal daily lives (we do have a good life, even at home! It's like a vacation every day with Sarah ;-D).

Before we left to Rio, we bought a Lensbaby to take some photos over our vacation and for me to have for work as well. It was so much fun, and just a tad bit too addictive! We kept shooting with it the entire way to Rio, AND our entire afternoon that Saturday. It's a wonderful toy to play with but we knew we shouldn't leave it on for the whole week or every damn shot we took would be all crazy and make you guys vomit after just a few! 

We were way to trustworthy immediately taking so many photos - but we could feel tons of the locals really "watching" us - I figured it was because we were white, American, and all happy touristy..... and then a few people told us we should be careful with the camera which I figured was normal. Later that evening, I brought it to take photos of a street carnival that we attended and you could feel eyes burning into us! We then realized we couldn't have my fancy camera just hanging around and snapping away - so for the remainder of the week, we left it in our "bag" and used the tiny camera for most of the week! :-( We did take some snapshots, but not as much as we did with our smaller camera so this blog is the big "show" where we took alot with the fancy camera, and the lensbaby lens. 

These are from the airports to the first day being in Rio in the early evening. We have tons more of photos to show but that will come soon!

Enjoy :-) Thank you again to everyone who voted for me and made this wonderful trip possible! It was a nice vacation away from work (the last one I took was years ago if you say "no work, no emails, no nothing" to me). Purple, Thank you for covering this trip - it was wonderful!!!

It was so ironic because this restaurant's name was La Maison (it's right outside the hotel we stayed at, and we frequently ate there) and our home's name is Maison Looziana! Fate!

wow, awesome pics tate & sarah! i'll have to try a lensbaby someday. they make great effects! i agree with queenalpo about the picture of sarah looking at the guys walking by. that's funny! when i was in paris last fall, my husband told me that someone was staring at my eos 20d camera while we were waiting in the line. he told me to be sure to keep it strapped around my neck the entire time. so i know the feeling. i'm glad that nothing had happened while you were there. looking forward to more pics!

We're back from Rio De Janeiro, Brasil! What a marvelous trip it was. I want to post tons of photos but right now I really need to get some work done for clients so I can stay on top of things. I'll play around with more photos tonight after my workday.

Enjoy these snapshots for now at least!

Do you know the work of Franz Xaver Messerschmidt (1736-1783)? These photos remind me of his most distinctive body of sculpture. I hope that you continue posting more of your creative work here.

Was this you watching the ballgame last night? I think we had some of those faces in our living room :)

tatephoto:

No I never saw his work - I will check his stuff out online. Thanks for the tip.

And no, this was in between two sessions of mine last Friday. I was testing out the light in the guest room before I did the second session - hence getting carried away!

Nicole just mailed me a copy of their (Baton Rouge General Hospital) magazine and had a lil surprise for me inside it. When I went to meet up with them to give feedback on the NexTalk service they now have available for the deaf and hard of hearing community (and they used those exact words! no "hearing impaired" stuff). Needless to say - it came out good.
