Tribute to Avedon//Round Rock Photographer

Here are some of my favorite photos from my last shoot.  It was for a final project in set design.  We re-created Andy Warhol's Factory, Richard Avedon's studio, and the Chelsea hotel.  It was a blast!! There was music, there was food, there were drinks (ok it was water) and there were lights and cameras everywhere!!

Thanks to all my models, Michael S. Alexander, Maria Engler, Sky Van Vliet, Colleen Nelson, Megan Teague and Paige Teague.  You guys rocked!!

And of course I have to thank the folks that made the models look this great, a special thanks to Brian Emanuel and Tess Roy for all their hard work.  I couldn't have done this without you!

Taste of Texas // Round Rock Photographer

Here is one of my latest photo sessions for food.  I wanted to do a Texas theme and found it in this Texas Flag made from a fruit tray of blueberries, strawberries and bananas with some yummy cream for dipping.

After a hard day of being under the lights and camera, these tasty treats went home with me and were transformed into jam.  And yes, they were as yummy as they look.  Except the bananas and creme.  The bananas expired at the end of the photo session and went promptly to the trash.  And well the cream wasn't edible because it was made of Crisco and Corn starch.  Just a trick of the trade.

Hope you all enjoy it as much as I did photographing it.  For more photos visit www.Peereboomphotography.com or www.PeereboomPhoto.com

Speaking of Halloween, if you loved the lady in blue; here are a few more pics of her going from Punk Funk to an Angel just in time for Halloween.   I loved the fake mohawk and had a blast taking these and the sassy peacock.

"The Spice of Life"

"Room with a view"

Spring 2011 semester at ACC ended well. I got 5 images into the ACC Print Show in two different categories. I got 3 images in for Illustrative 1 class (you learn to take pictures of products). And 2 HDR images into the Color 2 category (which is considered advanced photoshop). I didn't win any awards, but am just happy that my work is getting better! I already have an offer to buy a copy of the "Room with a view" image above taken at the Teralingua ghost town. And an offer to buy my "feel the burn" picture as well.

My little Wolf//Child Photographer

My daughter Holland had her first starring role today as the Wolf in her pre-school's play "the Three Little Pigs". She was fantastic!! She danced, she huffed and she puffed and she said every line on time and not one stutter. And all in spanish too!! She didn't shy away or cry or anything, she says she is ready for broadway and that she is going to be a Rock Star!! I love it!!

None of the pictures above have been edited, but if you want to see edited photos, go to:

Field Trip//Austin Photographer

You are never too old for a field trip!! I took a great field trip with my Illustrative photography class to 3 photo studios in Dallas, Texas. We went from biggest studio to small (3000 sq feet is not small!!). And boy did we learn a lot!!

One of the photographers we got to meet and visit with was Jean Ann Bybee, the author of Food Styling (photos from my phone above). Jean Ann and her husband Brad were so gracious and shared some of their tips with us on what equipment they use (and why), props, and gave us good advice on important things we tend to forget (like treating people with respect, no matter who they are). They were down to earth and made us feel right at home. They have a new book coming out and I can't wait to get my hands on it!

We also met with photographers, Jim Bowie, Mark Bumgarner, and Jeff Davis. They were great and shared a lot of information on the changes from film to digital, social media for photographers, and they even sold me a tripod that they didn't need anymore! What a bargain!! Their tips on how to do photography on a budget are priceless and will definitely be put to good use. The best part about visiting with them was not just that they were fun and entertaining, but that they gave important information on what we as photographers should really expect in the industry.

We also went to R&J studios where the "Big Guys" (JCPenny's, etc) get their catalog photography done. (See the picture with the couch!) It was huge and an overwhelming experience to see how the big companies work. There are not many large studios like theirs left, but oh boy, what a thrill to see it!!

Everyone we visited are amazing photographers and I am grateful that they took the time to visit with us and share their knowledge. It's photographers and companies like them, who share their knowledge and encourage the rest of us, that make me aspire to do better work and educate everyone on what good photography is!

A special thank you to all of them.

And HUGE Thank you to my awesome professor Tom Grant! Thank you Tom for setting this trip up and for showing us another side of photography that we probably never would have seen otherwise! It was eye opening and every photography student should have to take this trip!

Kryztal Vaporz//Round Rock Photographer

I had a great Portrait session with Kryztal Vaporz. She is a fierce entertainer and a sweet heart to work with. Kryztal just appeared in the Young-N-Done Drag show February 5th. And let me tell you it was a fabulous show! If you missed it, then you truly missed out! Krystal showed off her new figure, 2 fantastic new looks, and 2 awesome new routines. If you ever get the chance, go see her show, you will not be disappointed!! In our session, Kryztal showcased some of her most eye catching dresses and her version of Joan Crawford, including a wire hanger!! Way to work it Kryztal!! I can't wait to work with you again.

A special thank you to Allison Lowry. She did magical things to Kryztal's Wigs and a gorgeous make-up job.

Bridal Portraits//Round Rock Photographer

I had my first bridal portrait session back in October. My friend Julie was kind enough to let me take her portrait. She was married back in June and wanted to wear that gorgeous dress one more time. And I don't blame her!

Make up artist Cari Reynolds did a wonderful job on Julie's make up. She looked flawless but not over done and so natural. Great job Cari! Thank you for making this session a breeze.
