More like amusing and awesome. Not frequent enough to be annoying.

Someone told me about this forum (I forgot who, sorry) and I just thought I would drop by and introduce myself, and say hello.

Looking forward to future discussions :)

Howdy Brooks,

Great photos on the website! You really have a talent for capturing the emotions at a wedding.

Is this the same Brooks that was a stringer for the Irving News in the '90s? The same guy that wore shorts on every assignment; even in frigid weather?

Those were some great times. Lots of late Friday nights, rushing to get film developed and scanned before the other stringers, working with a great bunch of sportswriters like Ron and Randy. Getting to shoot Cowboys games and High School Football Playoffs at Texas Stadium. Shooting the Byron Nelson golf tournament in Irving.

Working for the Grand Prairie News at DFW Suburban Newspapers and working with Randy and Ron, was the best job I ever had.

Email me or PM me and let's catch up.

Take care,
Larry Stephens

The first step is admitting that there's a problem. Just kidding, welcome aboard! Your images are breathtaking! I can't wait to hear what you have to say also!
