SMU Men's Basketball vs Wichita State by Londen Wheeler

What a wild ride 2019 has been so far in terms of the opportunities that I’ve had with my photography.  I’m still trying to figure out what’s next on my journey as a photographer!  I don’t know what the rest of the journey will look like but it’s been pretty sweet thus far.  You won’t find a blog post from the second basketball game that I shot at SMU, mainly because I got caught up with doing some other stuff and didn’t have time to make a post.  So, you’ll get this one instead!

The game against Wichita State was one of the best games I’ve seen in a while.  The intensity that each team played with was beyond amazing. These guys were going at it in the first half and at one point, I was hoping that we could take the game into a double overtime, jump start my excitement for March Madness! Unfortunately, the double overtime didn’t happen but it was still a great game nonetheless.

One other cool fact about this game was that it was their senior night and the last home game of the season.  President Bush didn’t show up to the past two games so I’m really lucky that I got a few photographs of him while he was there… Well, he could’ve been there but just not courtside like he was when I saw him.  Who knows.  Anyway, the senior night was pretty cool.  It was a packed stadium, intensity was there, the crowd was excited and all four seniors got to start together.  Being an athlete my entire life, I know exactly what it feels like to be playing your last home game and feeling how you’ll never go back to play there again as an athlete.  Wild, right?

Well, that’s all for now! Stay tuned for more to come this month! Lots of things moving and manifesting right now and I’m super excited to see where things will go.  Also, if you don’t already, give me a follow on Instagram to stay in the loop with what’s going on when I’m not posting blogs!

Amani by Londen Wheeler

Man, I've been on a roll with blog posts for this month!  It's been a great month thus far and I'm hoping that it'll continue throughout the rest of the year!

Anyway, I'd love to fill you guys in on this fun shoot!  Ceejay, a coworker of mine and I were randomly talking while on break a couple weeks ago and he mentioned wanting to get some photos done with his daughter.  I told Ceejay that I'm a photographer and that if he had some free time, I'd love to hook him up with some photos!  So we did some coordinating and ended up doing a shoot on Easter Sunday!  His daughter, Amani was so fun to be around!  Her personality was shining brighter than a million suns!  I must pat myself on the back this time because I think I captured her personality perfectly!  Not only was she fun to work with but she didn't cry a single time!  Things really got going when we would walk to our next spot and she would hear a song come on and it's like the music gave her another burst of baby energy.  It was crazy and I'm super jealous that I no longer have the ability to get hype from any music for a photoshoot!

Can't wait to do work with them again!

Happy April! by Londen Wheeler

Hey, everyone!  I hope you all are doing well and enjoying life to the fullest!  All is well in the great state of Texas.  The weather is great right now with a high of 82 degrees so I guess it's safe to say that spring time is in full swing!

Just thought I would share a few photos with you all showing what I have been up to since the Dallas InstaMeet post.  I'm still walking around and taking in as much of the city as possible because this place is huge!  I have been to Downtown Dallas so many times now that people that I met randomly walking around, I see almost every time I'm down there so that's pretty cool.

Anyway, a lot going on this month.  I'm working full time and on weekends, I'm out exploring and meeting new people.  And not to mention, my birthday is in a couple of weeks and I'll be hitting the big 23!  I accept money orders, checks, cash, Square Cash, Venmo, payment through Facebook Messenger, and gifts through Amazon! ;) 

Well, I hope everyone enjoyed their first week of April!  Also, check out yesterday's shoot with Kenny in the video below.

Just a little video I put together of yesterday's shoot with Kenny (@ayyy_itskenny) and Trang (@trangzillah).  I really need to invest in a rig so if anyone has any ideas on a good rig, let me know!
