As a kid, I was dead set on becoming a rockstar. After high school, I formed The Alchemy. We rocked hometown shows, opened for big acts like Sparta, Alexisonfire, and Yellowcard, and even turned down a recording contract. But life had other plans.
In 2010, I picked up a camera and went to dive bars to photograph bands. I literally learned my camera in mosh pits. Eventually, I transitioned to portraits and got my first wedding gig in 2011. I loved it. Maybe because they can be a crazy as mosh pits. LOL. In 2012, I got fired from a cubicle job I hated, and that's when I decided to chase my dreams. The rest is history. I've been photographing everything from weddings and engagements to boudoir, maternity, and heart-warming family moments.
Beyond photography, I'm into all things Apple and I keep my musical side alive by writing songs and jamming on my guitar. My heart's in my hometown of San Antonio, where I live with my amazing wife, our son, and our 2 cats.
Hey Friend,
I'm Anthony!
What I'm Up To RIGHT Now:
- After having the same short haircut for 15 years, I began growing my hair out in 2023. My goal is to have it just a little bit past my shoulders. It's getting longer, but still in the awkward phase.
- My wife and I began re-watching the entire Game of Thrones series in preparation for the new season of House of Dragon. Needless to say, my lady is tired of me talking like I'm the lord of the house.
- Someone from one of my shorter lived bands found some old rehearsal recordings of un-finished songs. So when I've got down time, I've been re-learning what I wrote back then and trying to program the drum parts in hopes of releasing a brand new EP. Crossing my fingers the other members can find a time to record.
