What I Got From Gramps...
This is my grandfather. Faustino was a self taught musician and lead a well respected orchestral band in Argentina. He married a white woman there in the 30s, if you can imagine. That would have been a tough act in the US in those days. His father remembered crossing the ocean as a child in chains. That would have been around the mid 1860s. Lincoln's time.
From my grandfather I received these three things:
Artistic talent -- I've played the guitar, bass, and drums professionally, and have plied my trade in the visual arts for nearly two decades. That’s his contribution to the genetic tree which can be seen through some 3+ generations of I don’t know how many relatives after him.
Commitment to Excellence -- Whatever I do, I do at the highest level possible. I don't do anything half assed.
Entrepreneurial and Contrarian Spirit -- I march to the beat of my own drum, for better or worse. I may not always succeed in what I attempt, but I can always say "I did it MY WAY."
It’s because of these deeply entrenched qualities that Texas Boudoir identifies as “black-owned”. And is precisely why you’ll never see anyone’s boudoir photographs look like ours. The promise of uniquely exquisite photos is what I make to you as my client, regardless of age, race, religion, or any other distinction.
