Well. Well. Well...
I know many of you have been waiting for a few "behind the scenes" shots from our recent Extreme Makeover Home Edition - so here you go!!!!
We can't begin to tell you how blessed we have been to be a part of this amazing gift to the Jordans of Montgomery Alabama. So many people working tirelessly to create a HOME for this sweet sweet family and being asked to join in and do what we do best - to tell their story - what an honor.
Much of what I'd like to tell you - I can't - YET! But as soon as the show airs I'll be able to go in to detail and give you the backstory to why and how we shot the things we did.
We arrived in Montgomery on Sunday night and were there until late Tuesday. We shot Monday, edited, did post work, designed and presented on Tuesday. On Wednesday we were back at the Studio working a normal day as well as finishing up all images and making sure everything was posted and to our lab late Wednesday night. WHCC printed and overnight more prints than I can even count - most being custom sizes and many were large... EVERYTHING on this show is donated - our time, travel, our work, our lab's work, shipping and everything from everyone else. Incredible to be part of such a generous event.
The entire crew was awesome! Ty, Paul, Tracy and Eduardo were the Designers on this show and we were able to create some very special pieces for these guys - especially Ty. The Producers were also amazing - you'll see me with one of them below - Billy (I'm making a crazy face - what else is new...)
As soon as we know the air date we'll make a BIG announcement!!!! And we'll be posting more behind the scenes images over the next week.
Thank you - Billy, Eva, Matt, Ty, Chaz, Paul, Amber, Tracy, Eduardo, T-bone, Jack - and everyone else on the EHME crew, WHCC, & The Jordans (Monica, Brady, Brittany, Miles, Shan, & Tay-Tay) - you guys totally ROCK!!!!
Allison, Jeff, Molly & Katie of ARP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every once in a while my wife Val wants us to go to a photographer for family pictures. I usually view this in the same category as a trip to the dentist. What a surprise when we visited Allison and Jeff this week with our church staff. It was a fun and truly delightful experience. Can't wait to see the pictures.
I was also impressed by their faith in expanding during these economic times!

Billy,
We did shoot the collage and portraits for the house. I will post all those images after the episode airs in a couple of weeks.
DID you do the shots for the collage and potraits stuff in the house??
:-) So excited for you guys!! What an awesome opportunity!
Wow! This is so amazing that you got to be part of this! I am so proud to know you guys! Congrats!!
What a sweet opportunity! Great shots as well, can't wait to see more.
Nice work Allison! Must've been so exciting!
this looks SO beautiful!!!! I wish I could have come, sorry I was too busy getting ENGAGED. HAHA! Im ready for you guys to come home. Work is no fun without you:(
Allison and I had the privilege of shooting the new images for Jeremy Horn's upcoming CD "The Sound of the Broken". From this shoot we'll create his new album art and all the cool promotional pieces that travel with Jeremy and the guys. It was a lot of fun to have total creative freedom and shoot images that convey the feel of Jeremy's music. Jeremy is an extremely talented artist and the Worship Leader at our church - Christ the Rock.
Thanks - Jeremy, Mike and Scott!
I love the pics, but seeing the video of the shoot was so fun! it really adds a whole new dimension for us "non-photogs" and lets us see what goes on behind those great finished products! I already knew you had a crazy ARP crew, but throw Jeremy's bunch in there and I'll bet that was one fun shoot! Thanks for that inside look!
These are AMAZING!!!!! i tried to pick my favorite... but there is a tie between five of them.
So i just found out that you go to Christ the Rock! I do too. :) I can't wait to run into you!
...also, that video was hilarious. i think my favorite is when Kevin said "ugh what is this thing?!"... and then proceeded to touch it. ha I love that guy.
Really cool shots...it looks great! Can't wait to see how you use these. You guys are really talented!
My friends are ridiculously talented. It's pretty sick actually. Jeff and Allison- I'm in awe.
I talked with Jeremy and we were wondering if you guys could photoshop me into the background with a tambourine or maybe some bongos.
Love these.....the lyrics on is awesome but the one of the below it is really cool as well. Nice lighting, nice location...really cool! Can't wait to see the finished product!

Very, very cool that you got to participate in such an incredible show...cannot WAIT to see it! Collette W. sent me this way, and I'm loving your work!
Wow! Those pictures of Ty are really spectacular. I love the lighting and processing. Something so immediate about them. Very captivating!
I think you can just rename the girls "scarf girls" since in every single pic they are all wearing scarves! :)

Really looks like y'all had so much fun! I really can't wait to see this episode and see what you guys did! (:
