It saddens me to annouce that a fellow photographer in Houston has passed away this morning after a fight and lengthy recovery resulting from an auto accident. Pete Medrano, Owner of Moments by Medrano Photography in Houston passed away in his sleep, peacefully, with family and many friends by his side.
Pete was a regular at the University of Houston Athletics events and photographed for U of H SID for many years. He was one of the most considerate and self-less inidividuals I have ever met. He would have given his last dime to help a friend if he felt it would have done some good.
I you have ever had the opportunity to met, shoot with or call Pete a friend, you understand just exactly what I mean. He will be sorely missed.
Cheers to you Pete, and thank you for touching so many lives in a wonderful and positive way.
In the coming weeks, I will be posting a list of equipment in the Buy & Sell forum (for local purchase) much of Pete's equipment. All of his Canon equipment will be sold to help his wife in dealing with this loss. If you are interested, please watch the forum for the post. He used 1D Mk II's and 1D EOS Canon equipment and lenses.
Please include a quick moment of silence in your day for a fellow photog passed and a great guy!
