Let's start with the basics: my name is Clare and I live in Dallas. Here are a few random facts that might help you understand who I am...
- Received my BA in Art from Rhodes College but begged them to say "Art History" for my parents' benefit when I graduated. No dice.
- Wrote my senior thesis on this painting during my junior year while everyone else was in Florida on Spring Break. 11 years later and I'm still bitter.
- Interned at a small gallery where I was privileged enough to have works by Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans and Lewis Hine at my fingertips. Got valuable first hand experience on how to deal with a certain shipping service when they destroyed a rare painting in transit to another gallery.
- Would give anything for the chance to be a concert photographer for a summer or twelve.

I have returned! After a very hectic May filled with 3 weddings and 4 trips, I am finally back home and somewhat caught up on work (and laundry). Definitely not sleep. Oh, and I had a birthday in there somewhere. Here are some photos from the past month.

I just got home from a whirlwind trip to Chicago but I have to share these next two sessions before I go to bed. Now I have to come clean, I’m a teensy bit biased – but is this not the sweetest baby you’ve ever seen? Just two years ago I was traveling through Germany...
While I was in Chicago this weekend, I had the good fortune of photographing not one, but two sweet babies – meet Ewan! He was giving us his serious look when we first started, but by the end he couldn’t hide that smile! How gorgeous are these blue eyes? I just love how the catchlights...
I pulled some photos from my trip to Germany in 2008 and took them back into Lightroom for some re-editing. Here are 2 of them:

Same area as above, just different vantage point. The castle you see is called Hohenschwangau Castle (and here is the original)

What a day! As you can tell from last night’s photo, we got snow in Dallas. And was it the “light dusting” they’d predicted on Friday? Oooh no. It wasn’t. This morning when I woke up and looked out the window, I saw about 2 inches of snow completely blanketing the ground. Which...
Seeing these lads again in July. That tambourine was a 30th birthday gift and the book was a gift from the friends I’ll be seeing in July at the show. Do I have awesome friends or what?

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted, and I feel like I owe you all something photographic. Truth is, I haven’t been doing a lot of photographing because up until last week I was slammed with other non-photography obligations. Namely trying to squeeze ALL of my Christmas shopping into two days (uh, yes, it can be...
To the same old place – Sweet Home Chicago!
I think if I didn’t vividly remember how cold it was the last time I was there in the winter, I could definitely live in Chicago. But until I grow thicker skin or global warming really kicks in, visits during the warmer months will have to suffice....
Last year I was lucky enough to spend a week and a half in Germany and Austria. It was one of the first times I’ve ever traveled abroad where I truly felt like a foreigner. The only foreign language I’m accustomed to hearing is Spanish. Living in Texas, it’s pretty much a part of daily...
