Where do I begin?

Photography. I LOVE what I do, it’s a big part of who I am. In 20 years I guarantee I will still be photographing by the grace of God. I don’t know if it was brainwashing from a young age (my grandfather was a professional photographer) or the chemicals (yes, I actually did use film and a darkroom, still do once in awhile), but I can’t remember a time when I didn’t want a camera. My first one was a Kodak disc! I plan vacations, (shh…don’t tell my family) around what would be cool to photograph. If you stop me in the store I will probably have a camera on me somewhere, even in my purse or pocket.

Please don’t take my Kodachrome away! Gotta love Paul Simon! I love music of all types: jazz, classic, rock & roll, you name it.

I enjoy photographing weddings, yes, you heard it right. Love is the bomb, there is nothing better than knowing you have found your soulmate. From your engagement pictures to your wedding day I want to be there with you/for you. To document this magical time in your life. Yes, I know that sounds cheesy, but it’s true.

Babies and kids are up there too, I think it’s all part of the love thing. They are truly miracles and I am so honored to have your confidence in preserving these memories and moments for you. Not only in this generation, but generations to come.

And we can’t forget family! There is no better time to have your children’s pictures taken than right now. Every single year you should make time for this because who matters to you most? We change so much and here we like to do classic relationship photos that capture the spirit and energy of who you are and how you relate to each other. We can always do some trendy/funky ones too, but the classic one endures. You won’t have your 18 year old some day pointing out your picture and saying, “Look how far-out Dad was in those bell bottoms” (no, I never did that)

I hope I have the opportunity to meet and talk with you!
