Baby Ellie – 6 month portraits
We had a session with baby Ellie yesterday and it couldn’t have gone any better. Ellie is 6 months old and is one of the happiest babies I’ve ever seen. She has quite the smile as you can see and blue eyes to die for. It’s just a plus that she’s a Notre Dame fan [...]

A little rain never hurt anyone
Hey, let’s face it, they can’t all be sunny and 85, can they? So what do you do when a couple has driven 45 minutes and is ready for their engagement pictures, but just as they show up, it begins to rain. To be honest, there’s not much you can do. Weather is about the [...]

Rain + Engagments
We had an engagement session with a couple we met at the Brandywine Bridal Show a few months back. Stacie won our free engagement session and she and Corey cashed in on it today. Despite some crappy rain, we still had a good time and got them some great photos. Hope you like them guys. [...]

The Waughs
I took my first crack at modeling photos the other day. As you can see, it wasn’t Marissa Miller or any other top fashion models, but they certainly little heart-throbs in their own way. Carly and Alexis are two five-year-olds from town who are looking to break into the child-modeling industry. I think the shoot [...]

First engagement session of 2009
As I promised on my other blog, here’s a quick post about an engagement session I did with a couple the other day. Steph and I had booked this couple for a wedding a few months back and they decided they wanted the engagement session at that time too. We had actually planned to do [...]

Ballin’ setup
I’ve really been itching at the chance of getting outside to try some creative portraits over the past couple of days, and I finally took my chance this evening. Bobby and I went across the park with my camera, two strobes and a beauty dish modifier. I wasn’t looking to make anything overly spectacular tonight. [...]

Spots everywhere
Original Edited Just wanted to make a quick post about the importance of a clean sensor. Any photographer who has ever experienced dust spots on their photos knows what I’m talking about, but I didn’t heed my own advice before my last wedding. The result was that I spend hours retouching each photo to get [...]
