My second day!



This is the second day of my electronic journal so I thought some recent wedding images would be appropriate. Often times brides and fellow photographers will ask me "what's new" or how are things? I think that my mood and motivation are driven by my kids and recent weddings. So here are some recent photos.


Here Kelly and the girls share a light moment before the ceremony.

Cake details...


A "Bogart" moment outside the reception. I envisioned this image and coaxed Kelly and Joe to take a moment out of their reception to let me "play".


As I was showing one of the bridesmaids the photo I just took by the manor house, I noticed Kelly and Joe dancing through the window. I shot this without flash from outside the Riverstone Manor so they had no idea the photo was taken.

I hope you enjoy these images from Kelly and Joe's Wedding at the Riverstone Manor (http://www.riverstonemanor.com/) in Glenville on June 30th,2007. They are a wonderful couple that have dedicated themselves to the teaching profession. We had beautiful weather and the day went off without a hitch (except the hitching by Kelly and Joe that is).

My first blog...

Wow,
I can remember my dad's reaction to my request for a calculator back in 1980... His gut reaction was to discourage the use of technology until we were "ready". Well I've basically done the same thing with a blog.



Many of my photographer friends have them, the online community I belong to called DWF "Digital Wedding Forum" has always recommended a blog... I kept saying why? Do I need one? Does it make me a better photographer? Do I have the time to keep one alive??? Now with 2 kids (8 year old daughter and 3 year old son) THAT is the real question.

So here I am with my first entry - when I get the chance later tonight I'll add some visual content, so bear with me as I get started on my new adventure.

Welcome to my blog!
