Melissa Booey, an aspiring actress from Fresno, CA, asked late last year if I do a photoshoot for a set of headshots she needed in order to audition in Southern California. You may have seen Melissa around town in various productions from Fresno City College to Shakespeare in the Park. Melissa was a pleasure to work with, very photogenic, and the day was gorgeous. We spent the day scouting out locations all over the downtown area, and came up with some great shots. Here’s just a sampling. Oh – and keep an eye out for Melissa! One day you may be saying, “I remember back when Darryl did her headshots…”

FresnoCouponing.com
After watching the new TLC series, “Extreme Couponing,” I decided to test out some of the couponing tricks demonstrated on the show. To my amazement, THEY WORKED! So, in an effort to share some of my newfound shopping fun with others, my wife and I joined with another couple here in Fresno to start FresnoCouponing.com, a blog aimed at sharing coupon deals, shopping specials, and different events in the Central Valley.
From logo design to WordPress layout, this was a fun project — and one that continues to keep me busy with updates, writing, and programming. You can check it out here.

Chester Crab Feed
In January 2011, I was asked to help create the promotional artwork and tickets for a Crab Feed to raise money for the City of Chester Volunteer Fire Department. Initially, the design was to be printed in black and white, but after designing it, I went ahead and added a touch of color for full-color posters to be printed as well.
