Jenny

Jenny and Bill gave us an incredible day to remember, we were so privileged to be able to photograph their beautiful day! After making making pictures throughout the evening of the staircase in the banquet hall, I kept thinking I hadn't made THE shot I had in my mind. So, I took Jenny over to the staircase, opened my shutter up for a long exposure, and was able to capture this picture, one of my favorites. I will post more from their wedding over the next few weeks, so keep coming back!

Tina & Don - Not My Picture!


My son, Rich, has been helping me shoot weddings this year, and I am AMAZED at how quickly his work has grown over the past six months. Take a look at this gem he scored with at Tina & Don's wedding over the weekend. Wow!
