Wedding! Erin and Eddie








Erin and Eddie applied their D.I.Y. ethic to every aspect of their wedding and the result was truly lovely. Friends and family helped to prepare the food, there were adorable handmade bouquets and keepsakes for each guest scattered on the tables and a riveting musical performance by the brisdemaids and groomsmen as part of the evening's entertainment. Definitely a warm feeling of community and love throughout the whole event... A really special night that I was honored to be a part of.

More FUN! Get the kids out of the studio!




When I take family or kid photos, it's really nice to get out of the studio and relocate the shoot to a place where kids feel happy and comfortable and will loosen up in front of the camera. Backyards, playgrounds, sandboxes... these location shoots provide a really interesting backdrop for the photo session, as well as allowing the child to stay within his or her comfort zone. That's when the really amazing images that showcase the child's personality happen. Here are a few images I made recently.
