whose bad? i'm bad.

i'm bad at being a consistent blogger! unacceptable.

on the bright side, i'm not bad at photography. or at finding good lookin' folks to photograph. eat your hearts out.


august 28th, 2010

i had the wonderful opportunity of photographing veronica and aleksander's wedded bliss. can i just say something? every wedding day couple should be this fun and laid back.

they were so, so cool.

and fun. and real cute. and it was a beautiful, sunshiny day.
see for yourself!







they live in the netherlands. as i type they are riding a bicycle built for two. i betcha.




speaking of bliss, cuteness, and fun...

i spent a lovely september afternoon with these engaged lovebirds...megan & rich. i captured a lot of great pictures of them because they are super photogenic, super in love, and super funny. they had me cracking up 99.7% of the time.

so, so fun.
check these two out and try not to get too jealous.

they're getting married in december, by the way! so fun. i can't wait to photograph their winter wedding...!
light posts. gentle snowflakes. powder. perfect lighting. rosy cheeks. *fingers crossed*







to save rich a little face with the menfolk, i did not post the photo of he and megan smooching under a sign reading "babycakes."

you're welcome.

emma.

emma ping is the cutest little sweetheart that ever walked (or crawled around on) the earth.

she's got the cutest chubby cheeks, big blue eyes, and a smile that will give you a panic attack due to far too much cuteness in one little package.

with that being said, grab a paper bag or put your head between your knees.

a shout out to my bff.

hey, there inseparable.

so, here is my best friend. her name is ashley.



she's actually pretending to knock on the bride and groom's wedding night hotel room, (brown chicken brown cow). what a little jokester. i won't mention that we ended up sleeping in the very next room.

oh, wait. yes i will.

anyway, she helped me shoot nick & beth's wedding. she did an amazing job! not only was this her first time shooting a wedding, but it was also her first time even using a professional camera. she's great! from what i gathered, she had fun. can't wait to do more weddings with you, ash! now it's time for you to buy a camera!

oh, and she also went and bought me iced coffee when i was really hot, busy, and thirsty. if that's not an amazing assistant, i don't know what is.

beauty to share.

i'm working away on nick and beth's wedding photography. i must say, i am pleased! the photos are looking really beautiful. i'm telling you, not only were they a photogenic couple, but their family and friends were too. and so pleasant! made for a great wedding to shoot.

my most favorite part of wedding photography are the photos of the bride and groom getting ready. i love how peaceful and happy, but yet nervous the bride & groom's faces look. and there is just something beautiful about a couple making themselves up for such a huge day.

with that being said, here are a few shots of just that. as always, click on the image to see it full-size.

where it all began.

so, i had to post this one right away, because i thought it to be so darned cute. it's nick and beth in front of alumni hall - which is the studio where MU's architecture students spend most of their college career. also, it's how nick and beth met.

they're both architects if you haven't realized that yet.
give it a click to see it full-size.

it was a good weekend.

just arrived home not too long ago from oxford. i had the opportunity to photograph an old friend's wedding on the campus of miami university. it was sooo beautiful and so much fun. nick and beth were married in kumler chapel on miami university's western campus, and then held their reception at the shriver center, also on campus. they're the cutest.

i'm beginning the editing process of about 12 GBs of photos...i'll be posting favorites periodically. can't wait to get them all finished and sent off to the happy couple!

nick and beth, if you should read this...you and your families were amazing!!! wonderful weekend, have a blast at the grand canyon...and don't fall off your mules!

more soon!

new flash

i bought a new flash yesterday, and i am so excited about it.

yay!
