This was another great project to work on. Working with Daniel Pagan at Rigsby-Hull Design is a great experience. He is a great designer and a great person to know. This article is about Mariner Energy and their business' up and downs. The article above was written by Molly Glentzer.
Fall 2008 Rigamarole /
This was a great project to work on. Rigamarole is an awesome publication for the employees, customers, suppliers and friends of Diamond Offshore Drilling. Working closely with Daniel Pagan at Rigsby-Hull Design is always such a pleasure. He is a great designer and a great person to know. This article is about the 30 million dollar face lift on The Ocean Valiant, a semi-submersible rig operating in the Gulf of Mexico. The article above was written by Denise Allen Zwicker.
Franklin Covey /
This is a perfect example of how we love to see Patrick Lane Photography images used. The woman in this photo is our friend and model Nancy Padilla, a delightful person to work with. We enjoy showing off our ability to capture moments that sell ideals while maintaining visual excellence.
Nobel Peace Prize Kofi Annan /
I recently had the privilege of meeting 2001 Nobel Peace Prize-winner Kofi Annan, Security General for the United Nations, with humble beginnings in Africa's Gold Coast. I was honored to be given his attention while taking his portrait, and noted his kind, gentle behavior. For more information about Annan visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kofi_Annan. Here is a web link to his 2001 Nobel Lecture in Oslo. http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/peace/laureates/2001/annan-lecture.html
Waltz Across Texas - Days 3, 4 and 5 /
We left El Paso later than we'd planned on day three. On our way out of the city, we were amazed at the stark difference between El Paso and Ciudad Juárez while driving along I-10, the interstate rides along the United States-Mexico border in the greater El Paso area. We did our best to capture that contrast while remaining north of the border. Leaving El Paso, we raced down I-10 eastbound until we hit Sierra Blanca. After a little harassment from the Border Patrol agent at the check point, we were back on our way to Marfa and Davis Mountains State Park to finish out the day. Prior to arriving in Marfa we saw a UFO hovering motionless in the sky ahead of us. We concede it was just a weather balloon, but it was still an awfully eerie sight.
Day four began with an early morning trip to McDonald Observatory in the Davis Mountains, a beautiful location with friendly staff. They gave us a tour around the giant telescope and let us go around the catwalk for unobstructed views of the valley below. We continued on through Fort Davis and Alpine where we watched the Sul Ross State University Lobo baseball team practice. We then moved on to Kerrville to call it a night.
We awoke on day five to disappointing weather. Thankfully, the four days preceding provided clear skies and temperatures in the 70's. We were able to salvage some of the day by shooting some portraits with waitresses from the Hill Country Cafe in Fredericksburg and a few of the firefighters from the Boerne Fire Department.
Please check back with us as we progress through post-production of this project.

Waltz Across Texas - Days 1 and 2 /
Patrick, Victor, and I (Joseph) just wrapped up day two of our five-day West Texas tour, an enjoyable journey thus far.
Day one got off to a rocky start outside of Marble Falls (damn you, GPS!), but we quickly recovered and continued on to El Paso. Highlights included meeting a dog-showing poodle peddler from Washington state, swimming in the spring-fed pool at Balmorhea State Park, and revisiting some of the houses we grew up in.
We stayed in El Paso for day two, traveling around the rapidly-growing city and its surrounding communities. We started off with Uncle Hiram in his Canutillo bakery, then stopped by Franklin Mountains State Park on the way out to Fort Bliss. Following Fort Bliss, we stopped by the Charcoaler for some burgers (El Paso's finest) and continued on to the missions in Ysleta and Socorro.
The three of us will continue our trip by visiting Marfa, Alpine, and Fort Davis. We plan to head to San Angelo for day four and back home on day five. Check back for updates during and after our trip!

Terrell Owens photographs for totees.com /
I recently had the opportunity to photograph Terrell Owens at Donna Baker's "See Picture" in Dallas. What an exciting shoot with a wonderfully skilled crew! Terrell Owens (T.O.) is quite a talented football player, one of the best receivers in his era in the NFL. Owens now plays for the Buffalo Bills and is a six-time NFL All-Star, six-time Pro Bowler, and holds the NFL's single-game reception record. He owns a line of fine athletic T-shirts and accessories available at T.O Tees.

Here's another ad recently sent to University Federal Credit Union (UFCU) customers like ourselves. This was shot here in Austin at Umlauf Garden.
