Sweet Sixteen at the Randolph AFB E-Club

Wow! Eric & Joe shot a Sweet 16 party at the Randolph E-Club last Saturday night. I don't know about Eric, but I forgot how energetic 16 is and how loud the music is. My ears are still ringing! LOL! But it was a great time. Such a warm, welcoming family that special young lady has - and she is so very gracious. Thanks to Shakari and her family for a great opportunity!

All Work and No Play - Not Always

We look forward every two years when RAFB hosts the air show. These photos were taken during their practice sessions in preparation for the air show this weekend.

You can click on each image to get a full view with detail.

Since RAFB is right across from our primary studio offices, it's makes it easier to pick up a shot or two as these great marvels of American technology fly over head. If you haven't seen the F22 fly, you must! It's strange to watch this fighter jet stop in mid-air and hover.

MDAP Prepares For Important Shoot At Cordi-Marian

Matrix Digital Arts & Photography is honored to be the official photographer at this major fund raising event on November 14th. In addition to covering the event as a photojournalist, we also have been asked to provide portrait shots to interested guests.

This is a big event, not only for Matrix, but also for Cordi-Marian. Important, well-known community leaders, will be present for the Gala.

MDAP also produced a short video presentation which highlights Cordi-Marian, and their need to build a new chapel. The Sisters had exhausted all their personal funds to complete the construction of the new Retreat Facility. The video provides a quick pictorial and video presentation showing the barn that they have been using for many of the retreat gatherings, the old chapel, and the new chapel under construction. We were pleased to learn that our presentation is being broadcast on Catholic Television San Antonio, and as well as other networks.

Over 9,300 Images Taken

Matrix Digital Arts just completed coverage of the District Level 5 Gymnastics Qualifier in San Antonio by shooting over 9,000 images in a 19 hour shoot at Aerial Athletics.

Thanks to all team members for making this shoot successful including our photographers Eric Aaron, Joe Kabanek, Mark Muniz, and David Racino.

A lot of hard work and dedication by our team members was evident throughout this shoot. Our kudos to Aerial Athletics for conducting a well organized and managed meet which helped make this shoot enjoyable.

This was a repeat engagement for MDAP. Having shot this event a year ago gave many team members a "lift" hearing parents remark, "Glad you are back again this year!"

Photographer Mark Muniz Joins Matrix Digital Arts

We are please to announce that Mark Muniz has joined our staff of professional photographers.

With 18 years of experience as a photographer, Mark will be a welcomed addition to our team. He will be assisting us with our contract engagements in action-sports, and assisting in our more formal engagements. His first shoot with us will be with Eric Aaron early Sunday morning for a Sweet Sixteen Formal, then joining other team members at Aerial Athletics for a gymnastics competition event.
