Danny and Hannah Wedding

Danny and Hannah were a very adorable classic couple, married in Montgomery, Texas.

It was a really hot day and they were just wonderful to work with! In spite of steamy weather, they remained cool and collected for the whole day! We went Candy Cane park for their after wedding creatives, where they had spent their first date together.

Andy and Jess - A Wedding in New Jersey








Cheryl and I flew into the Philadelphia airport on thursday evening in preparation to photograph a wedding for the Vettese family. Dawn met us at the airport and transported us the hour drive to Mays Landing in New Jersey. The next morning we met Andy and Jess, (the bride and Groom) to go through the plans for their big day. We traveled to all photo locations so we would know what to expect for the wedding day.


Andy and all the guys got dressed and ready in Mays Landing. There was a lot of video games and a bit of sword play involved!









while Jess was getting ready a 45 minutes drive up in Newfield.








After the wedding we went to a beautiful park! We chose to not use all the usual photo spots of bridges and water walks in favor of an old iron works ruins and a graffiti enhanced culvert that went under the road.


They made the trip in a Ford Model A. Pretty cool!!

The Smith Family Portraits



I met Brenda and Jerry at a study group. What a lovely couple and they have one of the nicest families you would get the privilege to meet.
They booked a family portrait session and we decided to head out to the gardens at The Woodlands United Methodist Church where they attend. It was a lovely place and a real credit to the church for creating and maintaining such a great spot.

Cheryl and I arrived a half hour early for the session to set up all the equipment. It was a good thing that we came early as a anxious and helpful smith family showed up within a minute of us turning in to the parking lot!

We had the opportunity to meet everyone as they arrived and discovered quickly how much love and thoughtfulness this family shares. If the world was made up of families like this, it would be a much nicer place to live.
