“Use a Picture it’s worth a Thousand words”

— Arthur Brisbane, 1911

Reality has morphed into hues that have changed with the test of time

In the paradigm of my alternating lenses, I hold history in my hands

I cleanse the conscious and convict the condemned in a flash

Standing unabashed and still

The thrill of capturing seconds in a snap taps into the

Mystical beauty of my magic

Ever evolving, my purpose pervades every aspect of life

The love of vanity, humble and haughty, intertwine into one definition

One intention, to pay homage to those who are mentioned

And those who have not been

Given the chance to give a face to a name

Your thoughts I frame, spark debates untamed

And remain as simply complex as the day itself

If pictures paint a thousand words, my stanzas stand on the brims of ancient libraries

Containing stories untold unfolded in one breath

Uncover future urban legends seeped deep beneath my ink

I reflect generations of observations visible to naked eye

Expose me to the light and I shall show you my truth

Writers Thought: I want to bring light on Alexandria's thought when writing this poem and providing a title. She stated the following, "Arthur Brisbane is credited with coming with the phrase "A Picture is worth a thousand words" in a news paper article he wrote. Knews plays off of "news". But you also kinda want to say "Knows" hinting towards he knew there was truth in his statement that would stand for the test of time. News is how we connect to the rest of th world. Photogrpahys does that in the best way. Without photos we don't have accurate depiction of who we are, what we are, where we are etc."

Dlores Media Group is a professional duo that captures creative images around the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. Our creativity ranges from "I Said Yes" Engagement, "Its a Baby" Maternity, "We Are Family" portraits,"Urban Vintage" lifestyle and so much more. Photography is our passion, and we focus on making our clients vision clear through our lens. A Philadelphia native who's settled in the Dallas Metroplex found his passion for photography in high school. He was shooting random photos for the Ranchview High School year book with a Canon Powershot; that he won in a Microsoft Entrepreneurship contest. He realized then that he would eventually allow his gift to make room for him. As time went on he graduated from the University of North Texas and his love for photography always rested dormant until 2013. Desmond said, "I Do" to the woman (Brittny) of his dreams and captured some of his first photos with his Canon camera around St. Thomas that he frequented often in his earlier years with his mother (Sonja); of course not the same one from high school. Desmond; a self taught photographer started snapping photos every opportunity he received from dance events, church sermons, fundraisers, weddings, vacations, etc. Dlores Photography was birthed from his encouraging grandmother who always told him, "Baby you ought to start charging people for your time, gift, and very well learned talent." He always laughed and said, "One day mom-mom.". What many don't know Delores; Desmond's grandmother, experienced multiple optical surgeries which in time left her vision impaired but still able to see the images Desmond captures through his lens. He said that this will be his life passion gift to the woman who has encouraged him through some of the best times of his life while being one of the cornerstones in his life. Desmond named the company "D" "Lores" after his grandmothers childhood name "Lores" and added the "D" to represent the bond between the "Sugar Cookie"(his nickname for her) and "Chocolate Chip" (Her nickname for Him) duo sense his birth. Desmond's vision is to inspire and capture every moment he can no matter the genre to ensure voices are heard through his digital influence. His clients often say his passion for others shows through his work. He believes life should be captured through and image so others can talk about it and bass in the moment of captured time. Life is but a vapor and we must cherished daily; like Desmond cherishes each moment he has to spend with his family; Wife (Brittny), Mother (Sonja), Grandmother (Delores), his fatherly inspiration and grandfather (James) , and Marlee (the Model Dog) in the state of Texas.
