Alpha Sigma Scholarship Ball

Sometimes you can walk into a situation and know exactly what needs to be done. You know exactly what you want your pictures to look like. But most times you don't know your hand from your foot. I stepped into La Fontaine Bleue Friday night for the Alpha Sigma Scholarship Ball and I can tell you, I fell straight into the the latter category. I did have an idea of how I wanted the final image to look like but time and circumstances make you adjust all preconceived ideas. So what do I do in situations like this. Well first, I piss my pants. Then after I clean my self off I scout for interesting backgrounds. I'm still new to looking for interesting backgrounds especially when I don't know who I will put in front of them, but I do the leg work to get used to it. After I find my backgrounds, I find interesting subjects.

La Fontaine Bleue provides a person a place to take wonderful pictures. But none more noticeable than the large fountain in the lobby. It's so noticeable that everyone wanted to have their picture taken in front of it. The area also allowed me the space to execute a group photo.




I like shooting here because everyone is dressed to impress and the whole atmosphere sings class and sophistication. I had a really good time at the ball and I hope the pictures can express that. Till next time.






Classy might have been the theme for the night but you know that we like to get wild and crazy so enjoy.

Exciting News

I have a lot to be excited about. For the past few weeks, I've been hit with unbelievably good fortune. I have been blessed to be selected to provide my services for the Harbor Institute. This company provides educational services as well as products to colleges and universities and after being present to a few presentations of not only the owner but also the other presenters, I can say that every person that gets a chance to hear them speak will walk away from the experience with a wealth of information. The presenters are not just informative but entertaining as well.

That being said, I can say that this fortune has not come without it's responsibilities. One is getting up early on a Saturday to drive my carcass to cities I didn't even knew existed. I don't know where the presenters get their energy so early in the morning but they bring it every time I see them. High energy, high audience participation and just a high level of enjoyment for what they do. I have to say it has been a pleasure working with them.

The other good news is that my website, www.rhylinimages.com is officially up and running. It's always under construction and I plan to add more images and content to reflect the work that I do. So stay tuned because I have some new things in the works
