This weekend, the weather forecasters from every channel were predicting the worst — a huge snowstorm starting Friday night with blizzard-like conditions all day Saturday. Not exactly the ideal weather for a late-March wedding! We were praying along with them that conditions would improve and, thankfully, the ground had enough warmth that the snow melted...

This is randomly affecting those of you who subscribed to receive our blog posts by email. It appears that older blog posts are being sent randomly and that the new posts are being...
We had a few minutes this evening after downloading memory cards to check out a couple of favorites from today’s senior session. Even though we have a few others that need to be retouched, I couldn’t resist working on a couple of images that jumped out at me while we were shooting. (Sorry about the...
It’s funny and disturbing how many of my status updates are related to food. =) Here’s a blog post dedicated entirely to food. My apologies in advance to anyone who is on a strict diet! On Saturday, Holly and I made strawberry crepes for breakfast and we got lots of comments from you, requesting the...
Well, it’s late o’clock and I finished editing another high school senior session. I’m loving these images and just had to share them. My reward, once I have this post up, is dinner. =) So, if there are typos, I’ll thank my amazing brother, Sean, in advance for catching them and letting me know! =)...
Just wanted to share some favorites from a session we just finished editing. Love this image of her skipping along the rocks… It was tough to get a serious face… …when really they actually were such hams! Our faves are always the images showing love and interaction like the next few images. Isn’t this weather...
Several weeks ago, Charles contacted me to photograph his proposal to Nicole. He had seen us at work at one of his friend’s weddings and we were excited to be able to help! Well, the proposal photos turned out below my expectations due to lack of lighting – the sun set and the proposal spot...
This afternoon I had the pleasure of shooting just for fun, gathering textures for use in the future. It’s amazing how much money can be spent on textures, so a texture excursion (I’m tempted to call it a texcursion, but does everything really need to have a witty name? =) seemed like a good idea...
Just wanted to post my favorite image from today’s editing! This may be a record for me (brevity)! Lots going on and not enough time for it all today. =) Nicole, you can see the rest of your images here. Was a blast working with and getting to know you and your parents! … All...
I had the great pleasure of hearing Dane Sanders speak a couple of weeks ago at WPPI. It was a soul-searching presentation and I have thought on it every day since then. I do need to go back over my notes on it, but it impacted my life. Well, I just bought his audio book,...
Recessions are actually great times to start businesses. Recession-time entrepreneurs have to be nimble, decisive, and quick learners; and by the time the recession is over, these entrepreneurs/businesses have a huge head start over everyone else who then realizes they should start a business. I’ve just started reading The Entrepreneurial Imperative: How America’s Economic Miracle...
Can you believe it’s March already?! I love it! Since January and February are our slowest months (as on-location photographers, we’re subject to the weather) we kinda hibernate over winter and emerge in early March to start shooting again. =) Daylight Savings Time begins early this year — next weekend! — so don’t forget to...
