My Passion & My Work

Hey there and welcome to the Blueye Photography blog. My name is Troy and I'm a wedding and portrait photographer located in Austin Texas. I love making photos that are real... real moments, real smiles, real love. I'm not sure that I can put my photography style into a single category, but you can be sure that I'm looking for the best light and the most creative angles I can.

In my blog you'll find everything from sneak peeks of client sessions to personal information. My life is (almost) an open book and I like to share as much as I can. Most entries will include photos... this is a photographers blog after all. I also love feedback about my photography/posts/website/life so please comment as much as you like. I read them all and try to respond to each and every one.

After you've read through some posts and gotten to know a bit about me feel free to check out my portfolio site using the portfolio link above. The blog is updated more frequently than my site, but you won't want to miss checking out my portfolio either.

Thanks for stopping by.

A powerful holiday message

I saw this over at Becker’s blog and wanted to pass it along. You may not agree with the religious aspects of the message, but its a powerful message nonetheless. This year Melanie and I, along with both our families, set a limit on what we would spend on gifts for each other and you know what? The gifts we received are things we can actually use (for the most part) and we spent more time doing things with each other than shopping.

December 28, 2008 - 10:06 pm jen - SO SO SO TRUE!!! If you stop and think about WHAT you spend your money on for other people, especially adults who probably already BUY the things they need and want, it just seems like the exchanging of MONEY with each other....it's all rather ridiculous. This year we took a weekend trip as a family the weekend prior to Christmas which really made us STOP, spend time together and enjoy the best gift of all - each other! And the extended family - well they weren't really ready to give up the gift thing all together, but we did a 'secret santa' thing so that we only bought for ONE other person rather than the whole lot - and it was GREAT! Added a fun element of surprise for everybody and ended up being one of the best Christmas' we've ever had! Hope PA was great and you got to visit with everybody! Wish we could have squeezed in a visit, but I TOTALLY understand....my sister does that whole crazy visiting thing over 4-5 days every time she comes home! =) Hope you got a little rest! hugs and happy holidays!
