Trina just earned her M.R.S.
Just a quick congratulations to the new Mrs. Adam Niemerg. Trina was a lovely bride. I’ll post some more photos as the week goes along, but we’re swamped this week so don’t expect too much too soon.

Idle hands no more
With all the free time I’ve been given lately, I decided to be as productive as I possibly can be with it. That being said, I reignited the spark in my photo essay, “24 Hours in the life of Rochelle.” My apologies to those businesses and people that let me follow them several months ago. [...]

Homecomings are supposed to a time of great enjoyment. A time for old classmates to return and cheer on their school. It’s supposed to be a time of pep rallies, parades and kings and queens. Apparently nobody told the weather this weekend was Rochelle’s homecoming. The rain and 40-degree temperatures canceled almost all the events [...]

The Rochelle Hubs rolled over the Dixon Dukes again this year, routing them 22-0 Friday night. Since this was my first game of football in over 10 months, I was very rusty, but wanted to share several of these freebies online. I’m in the process of setting it up so anyone can view my edited [...]

The Hargroves
I love shooting weddings. I think that would be pretty obvious considering I chose it as a career. But what I love best about my job is when I get to share that special day with a couple of friends. Erin and Chad Hargrove have been friends of ours since college. While we lived down [...]

Steph and I got a chance to shoot the Rodriguez wedding at Maxon’s Manor in Oregon, the other night. It was a little special for us because that was where Stephanie and I also held our reception, so it definitely brought back memories. It also helped me out a lot because I knew several spots [...]

24-hour pt. 4
One of the assignments I chose for this project was to follow a person closing the laundromat down. We only have one fully-attended laundromat in town, so it made the choice quite easy on me. The time was from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. and the subject was Yolanda Garcia. Garcia is the mother of [...]

I continued the project last night at Joe’s Hub Lounge in downtown Rochelle. I hung out from 1 a.m. to 2 a.m. during closing time. Joe was nice enough to let me hang out and get the photos of him cleaning up and preparing to shut down. This isn’t the photo I’m going to use, [...]
