Wow winter just keeps on coming! We have gotten nearly 36 inches of snow in the past week, and it still continues to fall! It honestly hasn’t stopped snowing for more than a few hours at a time since the storm hit last week!

So between snowboarding in POWDER (yep that stuff we don’t see on the East Coast very often) and cooking, I somehow manage to have to fight cabin fever off with a camera! I guess that’s just the life of a photographer. Anyways, the one day we had blue skies for a few hours I ran out side and grabbed some photos of the farm I grew up on.

After a drive that typically takes me an hour took me more than twice that long, I ended up getting stuck on the road to my parents house and had to walk the last half mile through more than 18 inches of snow. The next day I got my car out of the snow and headed to Seven Springs for some great skiing. After I could barely stand from hours of riding powder, the sun came out and I had a chance to take some photos around my parents house as the sun was setting.

I even got some photos of Willie my Welsh Corgie enjoying the snow in the driveway because it was to deep for him where it wasn’t plowed.

Happy Snowy Saturday!

I hope that 2010 is off to a good start for you! I’m busy booking weddings, and skiing, but I wanted to take some time to create and share a slideshow using my print lab Pictage! I love these guys because they make life easy for you the client!

After your wedding, we upload your high-res photos to Pictage to back up your images off site. I’ll then create a slide show of my favorite images and send that out to you so you can share it with your friends. Your friends can then pick their favorite photos and order the prints they want with out ever asking you to order a photo for them!

So enjoy the slide show. Share it with your friends. I am still booking portrait shoots for winter activities. Portraits are for more than just your wedding day. Share memories with your dearest friends, or remember a special time with family photos. We can capture the life, love, and adventure that surrounds you.

If you haven’t booked your wedding yet lets talk. I include an engagement session in every “package”. If you already booked your wedding photographer, but still want to do an Engagement Shoot, give me a call. Engagement photographs are intended to capture the essence of who you are as individuals, and as a couple in love. Whether it’s a walk in the park, or basketball with your dog, we’ll spend 2-3 hours on-location, centered around activities you enjoy. I suggest a few wardrobe changes for more variety.

So without keeping you waiting any longer: Enjoy the slide show!

I love Christmas time. Not only because if the real meaning, and celebration, but because I get to spend time with my whole family, and its not just dinner. It’s a chance for us to catch up, and this year, since my parents have the far for sale, a chance to grab fun photos around the farm, and log that part of the legacy in the books.

Family photos like this can be captured anywhere you would like. If there is a place that is important to you and your family, or those special in your life (i.e. friends, girlfriends, boyfriends), give me call.

Call me between now and January 22 to schedule your family portraits and receive a 50% Discount off session prices (normally $150-$300)

The three girls that never come in and out of my life :) and aren’t afraid to torture me when a new one enters.

I love these pictures of my parents! It shows their personalities so well, and it captures nearly two decades of winters on the farm.

Ellie and Krista live in D.C. now, so it was nice to grab a few portraits of them together on the farm.

Krista and dad used to spend mornings rowing on Donegal Lake, but since it was most likely frozen, this was a nice fun tribute.
