Erin and Joel´s Wedding or The Fly on the Wall-Updated

What made Erin and Joel´s wedding special was the willingness of all involved to allow me to truly play my part, the role I know best….The Fly on the Wall. The less I interfere with the participants, the more natural the photos will turn out. Even the  “posed” shots came out natural, and isn´t that what it is all about?

Wow!! The corn and the cake look delicious!! YUM!

Pure Joy

There is nothing cuter than a happy baby! Okay, I take that back…even a crying baby can be cute from a distance! Just teasing!!!  I love taking photos of toddlers and in these photos the giggles are incredible. The fact that I can get these shots without interfering is my pride and joy. These two had such a great chemistry together, I simply document the great moments happening all around. They practically didn’t know I was there.  As much as I love this baby’s reaction, I think the mother’s is just as beautiful. She is just so happy to be there playing with her baby boy…Pure Joy! (PS: This entry features on one of the photos my logo splashed across this cute little guy’s behind).




Moody Day, Exquisite Light

Winter storm is approaching! There is no better time to capture photos than when the weather gets extreme because you can get some really great light. I love this photo because it captures a gorgeous mood. Anah and Steve were exhausted from the event and just wanted to relax together and I was able to capture this shot. Note all the fallen leaves on the ground. Absolutely unforgettable!
