New album design


I just posted a new design from the wedding last weekend. I have a new technique designed to help cut down on the edit requests. I now make 60 pages, and you can choose your favorites to go in the album. They really tell the story in an amazing way. What took me so long to figure this out? I feel the final product I deliver is worth 4 times the standard proof book I was offering in the past.

Rebeca, and Steve


I had the honor of shooting the rare Sunday wedding of Rebeca, and Steve yesterday. It was a very, very classy wedding. The church, and the ceremony was majestic. Rebeca was beautiful. I was a little worried that the pigeon trapped in the church would drop a load on the couple. That would be a first for me. It was apparent from the toasts how much people love them. Thank you for having me. Check back later this week for album pages, and pictures on my web site.

New album posted

I finished another album design today. Now I look at my old proof albums, and wonder what I was thinking. These things tell the wedding day story so fantastic. I make slide show with them also, but I am having web site issues trying to get them to load, and play at a high resolution. I'll figure it out. It just may take 60 hours on the phone with a guy from Pakistan. Check out the new pages.

I shoot a wedding Sunday. I'm totally stoked to get back in the weekly groove.

The calm before the storm

This weekend is sort of my official start to the wedding season. Things will get pretty crazy. My brain will be in the "wedding mode", and I will have more topics than I can write about. So get ready to be bombarded with fresh blogs nearly daily.

I need your input

I love it when Brides give me images they like. You can email them to me, or just print them off, and give them to me at our last meeting. This is how I grow as a photographer. I let you do my research. search the internet. Go the west coast, East coast, and every place in between. Nobody knows the latest trends better than the Brides. I have no ego about what is right, and what is wrong. You are my boss. Please act that way.....in a nice way.

A day in a life Childrens Photography


I am having a blast shooting these children. Documentary style photography is so rewarding to me. Here is a partial album of Sarah. I did these in about 70 minutes. I'm used to having at least 2-3 hours. Here is the new information page.

Moms revenge

I don't know if this story is true. I got it from a fellow photographer. I enjoyed it.





Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen her
excitement -- not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother had
Found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed
mother-of-the-bride ever! A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn
that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress as her
mother!

Jennifer asked her step mom to exchange it, but she refused. "Absolutely
not. I look like a million bucks in this dress, and I'm wearing it," she replied.

Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, "never mind sweetheart. I'll
get another dress. After all, it's your special day." A few days later, they went shopping
and did find another gorgeous dress.

When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her mother, "Aren't you going
to return the other dress? You really don't have another occasion where
you could wear it." Her mother just smiled and replied,
"Of course I do, dear. I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night
before the wedding."
