Locations Aric Has Photographed
One of my favorite photographers is Pam Francis. She uses a technique called Rear Screen Photography in her commercial work. I am on a journey learning how to use this technology in my engagement and bridal portraiture.
Some day soon, I will have an eBook available on how to create this kind of imagery.
Here are a few more examples of what I have been playing with in the world of rear screen.
Houston Ceremony Location: Chapelwood United Methodist
Reception Location: Chapelwood United Methodist
Houston Wedding Ceremony Location: Saint Anne Catholic Church

For years now the Hallam family has been coming to Solaris for their portrait needs. This portrait is of Pastor Hallam and his son in law Pastor Rudolph Hallam, both of The Abundant Life Christian Center.
Time is so short. I was hired to photograph a wedding for one hour today, and the above image was created at the end of the service.
For me personally, I like to surround myself with beautiful things. Understanding and admitting this need allows me to be comfortable with the fact that I’m an artist. Indeed, it is my art that gives me the ability to surround myself with what I desire.
I know I do not create beautiful art with every click of the shutter, so to help myself get into the right frame of mind I mentally proclaim a few private affirmations which concentrate my energies at any one given moment, like a magnifying glass concentrates the rays from the sun to one point in space and time.
Placing myself in the right frame of mind, I begin to shoot for my clients with the purpose of surrounding them with beautiful imagery.
Through smiles, gasps of delight, and tears of joy I know that photography is what I was put on this Earth to do.
Time is so short, and I have so many more portraits to create. I have so much I want to share with other artists and photographers.
