A teaser from the Radford wedding!!

So almost exactly 24 hours ago I got home from a week of SoCal sun in the warm of Desert Hot Springs (108* on sunday mind you).

I’ve been looking through the five memory cards worth of pics I took over the three days that I shot and I’m super stoked about this set, the collins set, and the terziu family sets as I work on them all to get them done. :)

Here’s a teaser from each! As always, ENJOY!!!!

Editing like a mad man!!

Hi hi :)

I have been working on a secret (a new website!!!) that I think I just spoiled lol.

I’ve also been editing pics like it’s my day job lol.

I’ve finished editing the first half of the 2012 Potomac Youth Ministries convention pics AND all of the prom pics for one of my kids at church. :)

I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them!!!

I also wrote a new song this morning but I think it needs a chill bridge part; we’ll see.

Anyways, on to the pics :D

*places the cone of shame on head*

I’ve had a half dozen shoots I could have written about in the last month but alas I’ve been uber tired. Anyone who works a full time job, gyms every night, volunteers a couple times a week, AND takes care of a house gets a HUGE hat tip from me. This is fun but busy stuff lol.

That said, here’s a teaser from today’s engagement shoot!! Congrats to Chrissy F. and Lamont B. :D

I can’t wait to shoot their wedding next year!!

As always, ENJOY!!!

 

One, two, three... AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

That’s SOME love…

Love is like a tree.

It has rings that it grows that tells stories of its life. They say by reading the rings of a tree, you can see when it went through dry spells and when it went through easy times. When it had to be conservative and when it could flourish effortlessly.

It has branches that reach far from its roots to nourish and replenish that love. Like any great tree, it produces seeds that can grow into new trees.

Eventually if that love is healthy, you’ll have a yard full of trees.

These next few pictures are of a 50 year old love grown by the Pelletiers.

Definitely, as always, enjoy. :)

Laziness? Ugh… just do it right.

Alrighty. So there was this picture:

Oh, hello lazy pic of josh

Oh, hello lazy pic of josh

 

Yup. A LAZY headshot. Instead of getting fresh batteries for my background flashes, I just let it go half unbalanced grey. Instead of putting some basic gobos on the background flashes, I just shot anyways. It’s been a while since I had to use a lot of post to fix my mistakes but I did tonight.

Here is the same picture, done correctly:

Oh, I'm learning the same lesson a second time?

Oh, I'm learning the same lesson a second time?

 

This is how life works sometimes. Sometimes we learn the same stupid lessons more than once. UGH. I should have fixed it when I noticed it when I was shooting instead of NOW. Let this be a lesson to my fellow photogs…

Love. 50 years in the making.

What if you married someone because you knew it was right… not because every one told you, you should?

What if you married someone you knew you’d love… even knowing love takes time?

What if you married someone you hadn’t proposed to… you just knew they’d be okay with that?

What if you waited 50 years to propose to the love of your life… only to already know the answer?

Congratulations to the Sherards and they’re 50th anniversary. :)

Here’s a sneak preview of the love I’ll be uploading next…

I’m not dead, I promise!

lol. heck of a title for a blog post eh? I can’t decide if I’ve been busy or lazy but something tells me having watched 6 seasons of How I met your mother in the last month might be the reason I haven’t had any free time :P

Back to work, right?

In the last month, I built a gun and filled a gun safe :D

The rifle (AR57, very nifty caliber)

KISS!!!

Yes, KISS is both an acronym for “Keep It Simple, Stupid” AND it’s a critical moment when two people’s lips meet and say hello.

It’s also a filler blog post since I’m editing like a crazy person.

As always, ENJOY!!!
