Alright, maybe this is a little self serving, but it is my blog and I am allowed to toot my own horn. I keep saying this over and over again, “We love our brides”. As it happens they love us right back.
Here is the latest from one of our 2009 Brides

Very Baby Sunday

I photographed 2 newborns this afternoon. As with most babies, it was a shoot and wait, wait, wait, shoot and wait some more. We captured some great images and here are two of Miss Ellee and Miss Bailey.

Brand New Website is Up…at last

It’s been about 4 years, since I last redesigned my website. It was based on a popular Bludomain Flash based template, but frankly it became outdated.

Emily’s Maternity Portraits

Emily approached me about doing some maternity pics of next month’s expected delivery of baby Ellee. I was a little nervous about scheduling a maternity shoot this close to the delivery date, because both of my boys were born four and three weeks early, but everything went great. Here are some of the images including...

Christmas Card Time

Well, it is that year again. Time to receive and send out Christmas Cards. This year I thought that I would do something different. After searching through various online card templates, and “wasting” about 2 days, I finally decided to create my own template.  All of the templates were designed to mass consumer demand and...

Columbus Hello!!!

We traveled to one of our son’s hockey tournament at the Nationwide Arena yesterday and in between games we drove down to Wendy’s Undergrad Alma Mater, OSU. Of course we had to drive down to the stadium since Slade had only seen it on TV. I wanted to replicate one of my wedding shots from...
