Deleigh Hermes, GoPro Trip to Belize

Deleigh’s last video from her trip to Belize was posted a couple days ago – Day 5 of her excursion.

I met Deleigh Hermes at The Heartbreaker Banquet at Willie Nelson’s ranch during SXSW 2012. She was photographing the event while I was doing videography with many other Austin filmmakers.

Shortly after this all day festival, Deleigh won a trip through Costa del Mar sunglasses to Belize in Central America. She was to stay for thirty days with her two trusty sidekick babes, Hannah Carlock and Darlene Robinson who live with her and near her in Austin, Texas. She had a grand idea of filming with a GoPro everyday she was down South and creating 30 days worth of video to show friends, family and the world. She’s been working hard on editing each day into episodes so you gotta check them out!

We created this video below before she left to talk about her goals in the tropics and values as a photographer in Austin living in the “real world” post college. She’s a fellow artist in a worldly city and I hope to work with her soon!

Green Alley Salon Mash Up Team

Austin Fashion Week is coming up and Green Alley Salon has teamed up with Michelle Thoreson from Revelry Dresses, Sherry Hammonds from S.H. Photography and Rossi Saenz, an Austin model. Alli Wilkinson, Emily Hobbs, and Kelsie Gibson from Green Alley organized the team.

We got together on the West side of Austin to photograph Rossi with a beautiful, domesticated bobcat for an entry in the Austin Fashion Week Photo contest. The bobcat needed time to get used to all the new smells and new faces but it warmed up to us as we warmed up to the idea of a wild cat prowling around the room.
