What makes us "great?"

June 29, 2023  •  Leave a Comment

Their first question was, “ What makes you and Lauren so great?” I chuckled, not really understanding if it was a serious question or a comment on what they saw on our website. So, I ask if they wanted me to answer that or did they have other questions. To which they said I could...

The Atlantic City Air Show

May 29, 2023  •  Leave a Comment
I try to go to the Atlantic City Air Shoe each year. The date doesn't always line up. I was able to make the last one and hopefully this year, also. This is something I like to do just for fun. Trying to photograph a moving object zooming across the sky while holding a heavy zoom lens isn't easy. It's a bit of a challenge. The weight od the lens,...

A type of editing style

March 13, 2023  •  Leave a Comment
Typically we don't edit too many photos in this style. A few for each wedding. These are "styled" and will possibly be "dated" after a time and may make your wedding album appear old or dated. We would rather you wedding book to have a more classic look. If this is something you like and would like to see more of in your photos, let us know. It's e...

Lauren and I arrive about three hours before the start of the cere...
