Weddings

It seems like every year we say the same thing, but it's true, there's something special about smaller intimate weddings.  Don't get me wrong, I'd be more than happy shooting in the Waldorf but the truth is that you don't need all the glitz and glam to have a gorgeous day. Give me two people who are madly in love and the rest simply falls into place. Micaela is someone I met through the many times I've worked with The Doolin House. She's a very sweet and creative girl who has become a top notch cake maker (even making me an Apple logo cake for my birthday last year).  Something that caught...

I found myself killing time at Wal-Mart…at 10pm…on a weekday… Why? Because my potential client had miscalculated the time it took to get to Somerset. She was anxious to meet and from the email traffic I wanted to make it happen. I'm glad my gut instincts paid off.

I have absolutely no idea where to start...and anyone who knows me knows that coming up with words isn't usually an issue. I guess we can start with a little boy coming over too play with my little brother when I was in high school and my friends and I executing flawless wrestling maneuvers on him. Fast forward several years and I'm meeting with that little boy's fiance about becoming the photographer for their wedding. Thankfully Michael didn't hold a grudge for a pile driver and a DDT. :) Michael and Taylor are an unbelievably sweet couple. In truth they were married shortly after I initially...

As this blog is set to go live, Taylor is mere seconds away from walking down the aisle.  The frustration of shooting a bridal session is that you have to sit on it for weeks and weeks and weeks...sometimes months.  No one can see the bride before the wedding, which is a killer for me. (Don't tell anybody, but I like to "show off"...especially my brides.) If you're reading this as soon as it's posted, then at this exact moment we are capturing a beautiful wedding and are dying to show you the images we're capturing. Until then however, you get a 1st look at these photographs. Associated...

Sometimes people just click. That's the best way I can describe Jordan and Krista.  It was obvious from the 1st time we ever met that they are stupid, head over heels in love. They click with each other and they've always clicked with us. There are so many similarities between all of us that it's impossible to keep track. From Jordan and my wife being in accounting, to a honeymoon in Jamaica, even down to Krista and Chrissa's father's having accidents merely days before the weddings that left a scar on their faces for the ceremony.  It's eerie...not irie, but eerie. Mr. and Mrs. Carter...

I know that I'm constantly saying how special each wedding is and I guess it's true to some extent.  This was a wedding that I had looked forward to for so very long.  The family was such a pleasure to work with leading up to the big day and the couple is so remarkable and sweet.  Couple that with the fact that my wife and I were married at the Pisgah Schoolhouse gazeebo, just outside the church this wedding took place in and it makes for a teary eyed photographer. When we arrived at Ryan's grandparent's home early that Saturday I was expecting the standard nervous groom, but it couldn't...
