Anyone Need A Lawyer?

Not a ton to report on this week, other than we've been super busy trying to crank through some of our recent weddings, etc. I'm a little behind on my Blog updates, but will try to get back into the swing of things this week! Tonight we had a quick shoot with Paul, who is headed to Philadelphia to work for a major law firm. Despite the serious look, Paul's a super nice guy if you ever need a lawyer, and hope his new professional headshots will help him get a good start to building his clientel. Thanks, Paul, and good luck with things!

Future Ladies Man Shoot....

Had a fun shoot tonight with Brent & Carey, and of course the future "Mac Daddy" himself, Grant. As you can see, Grant is not only really well behaved for an 8 month old, but extremely photogenic already! We'd like to thank Brent, Carey, and Grant for making the trip out tonight, and hope you will enjoy the rest of the photos once they are complete. We should have everything completed and uplaoded for you shortly. Thanks again!

Back From Buffalo.......



After nearly 10 hours of round trip driving to Buffalo, we are back from another successful wedding! This week's wedding was a celebration for Eric & Jamie, who clearly are really great people that love each other dearly. As always, we really enjoyed spending the day with them, and capturing the moments of their future history (it makes sense if you think about it for a minute :) Thanks to Eric, Jamie, and all the family and friends that attended - we should have photos online shortly for viewing & orering.

My New Wedding Slideshow Toy!


Oh, the anticipation hurts! 2 days left til she arrives........

On a serious note, I've been dying to start doing photo slideshows at our weddings, so decided to pick up the new 17" widescreen, Apple MacBook Pro. This baby is Looooaded with good stuff, power, and speed, and I can't wait to start using it. What's cool about this particular Mac, is that it's razor thin and known for it's amazing quality picture and sound. I'm hoping to get acclimated as quickly as possible, but who knows what learning a Mac will be like for me. I'm a lifelong PC user, so switching to Mac will be almost like learning another language at first. Good thing I'm a computer geek, I should be able to figure it out quickly (knock on wood)

Anyway, I'm really excited about the amazing presentations we'll soon be able to offer our brides by having their very own, custom slideshow at their wedding reception, etc. Just one more reason to book a 2007 with us I guess! :)

Wood Carving Anyone?

That's right... wood carving. We often have clients come over for portraits as a gift, but don't want their loved ones to know. So.... they do what anyone would do, and make up some elaborate story about where they're going. Our new friend, Nancy here, wanted to get some portaits done for her loving husband, but instead of going shopping, getting her hair or nails done, or something normal, she simply told her husband she was doing some wood carving with a friend! I haven't decided what's more funny - her story, or the fact that he bought it!

As you can see, Nancy is extremely bubbly and outgoing, and we had a lot of fun working with her today. We hope you and your husband will enjoy the photos from the day, and we should have them online within a few days for you to view & order. Thanks again, and good luck with your new wood carving hobby! (haha)

Family Portaits!

Had a blast this morning with the Demarco family doing some family portraits. It's not often the entire family is together, so we were happy to capture the perfect opportunity while everyone's in town. We'd like to thank the Demarco's for inviting us to their beautiful home to shoot, and for their business. Photos should be online shortly (few days), and we will send a courtesy email to notify everyone when they are live - thanks again!!!

Happy 4th of July!

Hope everyone enjoyed their 4th of July and day off! It was great to have an extra day off during the week to get stuff done today, that's for sure! I don't have much to report on unfortunately, but here's a quick shot of the fireworks in Albany from last year. The wife and I spend most of the day running around doing errands, so we decided to skip the fireworks this year....... I'm sort of regretting it as I'd love to get some updated fireworks photos. Anyway, stay tuned for some upcoming weddings & shoots this month - there's definitely a lot going on. See ya soon!

Congratulations Frank & Amy!

Shot an amazing wedding today with our good friends Frank and Amy! It's not often we get the opportunity to shoot at such an incredible place, so we took full advantage of the breathtaking scenery that the Mohonk Resort has to offer. I've known Frank for several years now, and it was great to see Frank have such a beautiful wedding with his new bride, Amy. Frank and Amy are both such great people, and we were happy to have been a part of their wedding today. Best of luck you two, and see ya soon!
