Without sounding too pretentious, I would like to make some thanks to the Texas Techsan magazine! I have been shooting for them for several years, and their editors, Jean Anne Cantore and Jennifer Ritz are top notch writers and magazine organizers! On top of that, I am proud to call them friends. Jennifer and I even work, and are working, on several other projects together, which has been fun and challenging in the same boat!
The Techsan is the official magazine for the Texas Tech Alumni Association, and I was fortunate to grace the cover of the current issue! I have shot several covers for them, and many stories, but I was surprised and elated that I would actually BE on the cover! Inside is a fantastic photo-essay of my work, and Jennifer put together a great piece to go with it, including statements made by some of my biggest influences and mentors, including Wyman Meinzer. Brandi Price, the magazine designer did a wonderful job as well, allowing me to cram a few extra pictures in last minute!
Thanks again to everyone who had a hand in this! It’s a great honor, and I appreciate all the opportunities given over the past several years and in the future!
More to come on Texas Magazine, and a few more topics!
