On The Spot... Andrea.

I know, I know.. I said it would be weekly and its been two or so weeks since I had an "On the Spot" post. Anyway its been crazy in my life since then and an especially
eventful weekend last week because of the party that I hosted. Anyway here's the 2nd Installment. This is Andrea, she will be receiving a Bachelors Degree in BIOLOGY, this saturday, and the interview....













Me: What was your first Prairie View memory?
Andrea: First pep rally for homecoming. The band and black foxes were great. The energy and school spirit was crazy.

M: First "I'm really in college" moment?
Andrea: When financial aid wouldn't release my funds!!! It took them a month to get my aid together.

M: What will you miss the most about college?
Andrea: The thing I'm gonna miss most bout college is sleeping all day then waking up just to go MSC or humpday. And the Late night runs to jack in box.

M: What do you thing you will be doing in about ten years?
Andrea: I hope to be working as physican assistant and living in Florida.

CLUB NEXT! inDmix Photographers...

Its been a week... The party was KRAZY, bananas if you will... Crowd surfing, champagne bottles energy drinks and of kourse more than anything, PHOTOS.. There were 5 or 6, maybe 7 photographers capturing the madness... Here are some of my images... for my full gallery goto http://www.cdixonphotos.com/NEXT.

NEXT! This SUNDAY... JULY 27

Im bored and blogging from Memorial City Mall at the APPLE Store, for those of u who know and love me, you know that I love APPLE products. I love them so much that I bought an Apple Laptop (macbook pro 17") and an Apple Desktop (20" iMac) within one month of each other...

More importantly Im hosting a party this weekend, tomorrow at CLUB NEXT (and when I say "I", well keep reading)... This will be the biggest and best party of this summer and probably of the year, unless we decide to do it again..

Its hosted by Me, KingDavid, Free, and FBA, four of the inDmix.com photographers. Shout out to jVince, wigg, collins and the rest of the camp. 

But make sure you come out, it should be a funky good time lol.. EARLY ARRIVAL RECOMMENDED..

Graduates... Social Status

So, I'm back at it.. Ive been doing a lot since my last time posting but all is well and finally have some peace of mind. Graduation is now 17 days away and Ive been recently bombarded with potential clients trying to fit in... I'm going to do as many I can next week and call it quits for August 9 Commencement.

These are a few images from sessions that I did with two soon to be Alums, both receiving Bachelors Degrees in Social Work and both former employees of mine... For those that didn't know I work for Prairie View A&M University in my spare time. The first is DeCrisha, who will also be commissioned into the NAVY on August 9th, and the second, Ward, a former football player for the Panthers (and SWAC defensive player of the week a few times) as well as my fraternity brother and a member of the Krimson 5 Affiliates...
I wish both of you great success and a huge Thank You for everything that you have done and will do...

Graduates...The First One...

So its almost that time again, as most of you know this is the Category 1 Version of "Hurricane Season." Summer graduation is C1, Fall is C3 and of course Spring is C5 (or more). This past spring I had the pleasure of shooting 42 Graduates. So needless to say I was sleep deprived, stressed and busy! Anyway, so far Ive done a few Summer Graduate Sessions and I'll probably be updating you more frequently with each person. This is Alicia, she will be receiving her Bachelors Degree, in Criminal Justice... August 9, 2008 @ 9 a.m!

On The Spot... ALEX!

I figured I will start a weekly (or so) "On The Spot" post here showing off my favorite image of for the moment, and somewhat "interview" the subject..

So this is Alex, shes the first person I ever really shot and then I expected everyone to be a model. I told her about this and asked her to send me a little bio, keyword LITTLE... she sends

I grew up in front of the camera. My dad (Joe Baraban) is one of the best photographers ever who always had me helping him with his shoots and developing film in the dark room.On the side of modeling, I grew up with 2 older sisters and 1 older brother. Being the youngest is not as easy as people might think. People expect you to measure up to your siblings and when your different, like me, I get it the hardest. My parents split when i was in 4th grade and i think it was the best thing for them. I dont know where id be if they were together still. im more then just a model. I go to school. Im majoring in business entreprenuership with a minor in fashion. I also want to go to cosmetology school, and be a chef! Back to the arts. I sing, and yes I can Sing. I also have a thing for photography. So im pretty much everywhere. I have a bestfriend who is like my light skinned twin. literally. i have a great boyfriend and im done.

Birthday Boil....

This is becoming more and more fun to post on. I usually try not to, or dont look forward to taking photos in my normal life, because its ALL I do in my professional life but not this past weekend. My roommate for my entire collegiate experience and my best friend for life, Sedrick, is now married, with a wonderfully goofy wife Jasmine and super cool one year old son Josiah... Jas just had a birthday and decided to have a crawfish boil at their new house. Of course I was invited and my road dog, more affectionately known as "The Savage (Webbie)" was ready to savage another free meal and non-non-alchoholic beverages. Here's a few.
