Pipe Creek Rock Concert, presented by Outlaw Photography

Hey mates, just wanted to make sure everyone knew about this weekend's rock concert at the Pipe Creek Community Center. Outlaw Photography is working to support the local rock scene through sponsoring this and other events in the future.

Area bands playing the gig include Prevail Within, The Snags, The Rapskallions, Arcadian Theory, Stealth Ninja the Band, Suffer the Children, A Ruthless Future, Sheltered Apes, Terror Threat, My Adversary and Harrison Anderson.

Doors are at 6 p.m., Saturday, June 23, with the first band going on at 6:30 p.m. Admission is a mere $2 and concessions will be available.

We hooked up with Steve and Tiffany from DevilishTrends.com to do some custom Outlaw T-shirts which we will be handing out throughout the night.

I would love to see a big turnout for this concert. Justin Mills of Arcadian Theory has done a great job working with us to arrange sponsorship and to put on a cool event for you guys. Show some love, tell your friends, and most importantly, show up and rock out!

Partnering with the Bulletin to better serve Bandera County!

Through our partnership with the Bandera Bulletin newspaper, in an effort to provide even better service and expedient print delivery to our customers, all of Outlaw Photography's Bandera County sports and local event online photo albums will now be hosted through BanderaBulletin.com!

What this means for you is regular weekly updates and even better prices on prints to fill your family albums and picture frames.


Also, due to the switch over to Bulletin servers, all archived sports and local event online photo albums currently found in the three Outlaw galleries will be moved to DVD and no longer available for purchase online. This includes all sports and local event images on Bantucky.net (1999-2004), the classic OutlawPhotography.net Gallery (2005-2007), and the new OutlawPhotography.net galleries (2007). These images will be available for private viewing and purchase at the Bandera Bulletin offices, but will require an archive research fee.

If you wish to avoid this fee and have been waiting to make your print purchase from our archives, please do so now! You will avoid the research fee and enjoy half-price savings during our current print sale.

In the future, you will still find updates here on OutlawPhotography.net to point you to the best new photo albums from Outlaw Photographer James Taylor on BanderaBulletin.com. Again, this only affects local sports and event albums, and you will still be able to find up-to-date links to those albums here at OutlawPhotography.net.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us by e-mail or by phone at 830-688-1564. Thank you, as always, for your wonderful support of Outlaw Photography!

Welcome to the new PhotoBlog of Outlaw Photograhy Studios!

Welcome! I hope you're enjoying the new site design and features of the improved OutlawPhotography.net. We've put in about six straight months of programming, designing, processing, and testing to give you the best possible online experience we can provide.

My name is James Taylor, and I am your humble Outlaw Photographer. You can find more information about me and my work on the main Outlaw web site.

Outlaw Photography Studios has grown by leaps and bounds of the past two years, thanks to the incredible support the Bandera County and Texas Hill Country communities have given us. This new site design is built from the ground up to better serve you, our valued clients. If you have any questions or comments, likes or dislikes, or any suggestions on how we can continue to improve our site and services for you, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Believe it or not, Outlaw Photography Studios, or at least my foray into professional photography, started out in the form of a photoblog. Bantucky.net, the former home of the predecessor company to Outlaw, was a blog powered by MovableType and updated with a few choice photos after every shoot I did for the Bandera Bulletin (my day job).

So, this is sort of a return to my professional roots, to begin anew with a fresh photoblog. I hope that my writing and photography have both improved since the old days!

This photoblog is your window into the behind-the-scenes work of an Outlaw Photographer. I will try to practice good journalism by writing short and posting pictures on topics of interest, from technical details of photos to "what it takes" background info on our biggest projects.

That said, enjoy this outtake from a recent photo shoot with Laura, James, and Christie! They stopped by to play around in our new studio and had a lot of fun just goofing around. I love dynamicism in shoots, and these guys gave me plenty of it.
