Simon is twelve! To celebrate, we had a birthday dinner at Lone Star:
While I’ve been making a lot of black and white photos lately because I’m interested in the expressive qualities of monochrome, in this case I just needed to overcome the nearly insurmountably wicked colour casts from the purple and orange neon lighting. This is what it looked like straight out of the camera:
(I love Granny and Papa Lou smiling off to the side!)
Note to self: no portrait sessions at Lone Star. Great food, terrible lights! Also, did you know you can bring your own cake and they’ll bring it out? Great service, and a very happy birthday dinner. 🙂
our boys ALWAYS have their birthday at Lone Star…. great to have the new one so close to home for us now! great food, service and yes, I don’t even bother taking photos there 🙂
and now I am craving fajitas!
