Nick & Megan

Yesterday, I shot my first wedding. WOW! What a lot of responsibility it was! I now have a new appreciation of those "guys with the cameras who stand there and click pictures"...must not be that hard, right?

Wrong. Taking a part of Megan and Nick's wedding was like being a part of their wedding experience. I was very grateful that they were both so appreciative and patient. Nick's laid back demeanor and Megan's spunk made for a very unique and fun wedding.

Here is a preview...with more to come later.

Wedding Preparations

My good friend, Rachel, just recently got married. She asked if I would take pictures of her getting ready. I had a lot of fun being in the wedding and it was equally as fun to take pictures and share this special day with Rachel. Congrats Rachel and Sy!

Luke Potter was very gracious to take these headshots of me at his studio in Athens!


Thanks again, Luke.

Best Friends Shoot

Kim and Katie, recent graduates from Ohio University, are a great duo! These two best friends met each other at a meeting held by their RA as freshmen and have been friends ever sense.

Katie, living in Texas, came to surprise Kim for a visit. Kim, wanting to surprise Katie, contacted me asking if I would do a best friends photoshoot. Kim and I browsed blogs for inspirations and compiled our ideas.

These wacky girls have made for the most fun shoot yet!!! Both comfortable in front of the camera, I was able to catch a lot of goofy shots. Absolutely nothing is posed. If these girls look like they were having a blast, they really were...and I was too.

More wacky pictures to come from Kim and Katie.

Katie & Adam

Katie and Adam are counting down the months until they get married.

This happy couple was a joy to take pictures of. This was the second engagement shoot I have done with them. The first was last winter. The weather this time was more agreeable and the fall colors were vibrant and warm.

Congratulations, Katie and Adam!

Sarah and Dominique

Sarah and Dominique are two young women interested in applying for the dance program at Ohio University. Their teacher, and good friend of mine Jen, asked if I would shoot their headshots for their applications. I gratefully accepted because this sounded like fun.
Although the shoot was quick, we covered a lot of ground. The girls and I, accompanied by Jen's boyfriend Justin, shot at two locations- the Ridges at Ohio University and Radar Hill, where I previous shot images of my friends Ali and Sarah.
The girls were sweethearts and very at ease in front of the camera. Both being so photogenic, it was easy to get the shots they needed for their applications, so I wanted to capture some more, what I called "girly", portraits in the fields of Radar Hill. Here were some of the final edits.
