Aftermath Rocks!

I have to tell you about one of the best photographic experiences I've ever had. Earlier this summer, I was approached by one of my girlfriends to take pictures of her son's band, Aftermath. I had never done a shoot for a rock band before so of course, I gladly accepted the challenge.
We started the shoot by taking pictures of them rockin' out at the Pecan Street Festival and then we toured Downtown Austin to find other great photo opportunities. This is my favorite photograph from that day. Don't they look great? So sure of themselves and so confident. Hanging out with them made me feel like I was in high school again. Overall, it was a great day.
This is the most talented group of young performers I've ever seen! Not only are they talented, they are smart, beautiful/handsome and they have a great sense of style. They were born to perform! So, if you ever have the opportunity to go and see them....please do. You will thoroughly enjoy it! ROCK ON AFTERMATH...ROCK ON!!!

Welcome!

Hello! I've always wanted to start a blog page, but to be quite honest, I've been a little scared. I wondered if I would be able to keep up with it because of my busy schedule and then I wondered if I would have enough interesting things to say. I'd just like to start by telling a little bit about myself. My name is Linda Lucas and I am a Photographer. I was born and raised in the Austin area and I absolutely love being creative. To become a photographer has a dream of mine since I was in high school. While I do have a full time day job, photography is what makes me most happy.

Over the Memorial Day holiday I photographed a very special person. She is my very good friend's little girl, Analisa. For as long as I can remember she has been a part of our family and she is the sweetest girl I know. I can't believe she's already 10 years old! We were at her birthday party this weekend and I almost started to cry thinking of how fast time is flying by. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to pause it once in a while? You know, just so that we can take in those extra special times in life.

Well, thanks so much for stopping by my blog. Signing off for now, but I'll be back before you know it.
