Time for a Change!

No, I'm not talking about Obama's latest presidential speech...... I've been promising a new blog for the past couple of weeks, and the time has come! We've had thousands of visitors over the past couple of days, and am hoping you'll all safely find your way over to our new blog and community (lots of big improvements as you will soon see with lots more coming!)

Ok - Ready to come to the darkside? Click the link below and be sure to add it to your favorites as all future posts will be added here instead..... this blog is officially toast! See you there!

My Latest Wedding HDR.....

Between client meetings and trying to watch 7 hours of the most amazing Wimbeldon final I have ever seen, it's been a busy day (and supposed to be my day off!) - I've been dying to play around with this image in HDR style - here's the latest.... this is going to make an amazing front cover for the wedding album, I'm thinking!

Congratulations, Jessica & Jason!

2 back to back amazing weddings this weekend...... we celebrated our second wedding with Jason & Jessica at a beautiful church in Saratoga Springs, followed by the reception at the Canfield Casino! I'm going to be up front that this blog entry is going to be a bit biased since Jason and I have known each other and been great friends (even roomates at one point), for over ten years - get ready for a lot of photos (hopefully, they will be worth the load time).

When I first moved to NY from England in 1997, Jason was one of the first people I befriended and we have had a long lasting friendship that I'm thankful to have..... I've seen Jason come a long way in life (as he has me I suppose), and I was truly honored to be asked to shoot his wedding for him last year..... I suppose it's second best since I wasn't able to make the cut to be a groomsman (only kidding). I'm happy to see Jay marry such an amazing woman.... probably the only girl that can keep the kid in line!

On a serious note, it was a blast to shoot this wedding, and I can't even begin to tell you how many amazing image we have from the day - for those that attended this wedding, you can pre-register your email below to receive notification of when images go live:

Of course, I leave you with a little more than a few samples from the day - I'm officially in need of a few days off and may go into hibernation after this weekend.....

Congratulations, Kimberly & John!

Wow - what an incredible day the 4th of July was! Yes, I could have been barbequing like 99% of the rest, however still had a blast photographing the wedding of a truly great couple, John & Kimberly. Other than an amazing church in Troy, the event took place at the beautiful Glen Sanders Mansion, with entertainment by non other than Cap Capello, who always makes the party interesting to say the least.

Kim & John have been so great to work with, and we definitely hit it off since day one - not many realize just how stressful it can be to shoot a wedding, and having a couple that is so easy going and carefree was definitely a treat - we got some great images from the day, and look forward to sharing them with all in a few weeks.

A huge congrats and thanks to Kimberly & John as well as their families for allowing us to be a part of such a special day.... as strange as I originally thought having a wedding on the 4th of July might be, I now realize how smart they were..... who could resist having fireworks year after year on their anniversary day to celebrate with!? I leave you with a few samples from our day together below!

P.S. Stay tuned for samples of the Jason & Jessica wedding in just a bit!

Sorry to sound like a broken record..... another exhausting, yet fun day in the field shooting the wedding of good friends, Jason & Jessica! It's now after 1am and after two long back to back weddings this 4th of July weekend, I'm absolutely spent.

After 10 hours of shooting today, I'm spent so will keep this short (plus we are shooting another big one tomorrow with Jason & Jessica so need to get to bed). Anyway, we had an awesome wedding today with Kimberly & John, and wanted to post a quick teaser before I hit the sack..... check back Sunday for a full blog entry with lots of samples from this wedding and a link to the online gallery!
