My favorite photo subjects

Wanted to show off a couple of photos of my nieces. They came running up during a photo shoot for a client a couple of weeks ago and of course I couldn’t resist snapping a couple of shots of them.

 

 

Aren’t they beautiful?

Dive bar + a little bit of humor = a fun Sunday afternoon

Meghan kicked ass at this past weekend’s Warrior Dash, and I was able to see her fly across that finish line as if dealing with walls, fire and mud were no big deal. A celebratory drink was in order so where better than to go than a nearby dive bar? Little did we know we’d [...]

A moment of time in travel

Some moments in my travels, thus far over the past few weeks … I edited all these photos using the Best Camera app, which I talk about a little more here if you want to see some “before” photos. I love that I don’t have to keep up with anything but my iPhone!

Coming soon: A little ladybug

She wants to approve all baby bump photos before they get uploaded to Facebook, so I’m going to be careful about the ones I use here since she hasn’t told me which ones she likes yet.  But I’m so excited about the first photos I’ve been able to take of my unborn niece, that I [...]

Downtown Athens: A different point of shoot

Chris got a new camera and thought it’d be cool if we took some pictures around downtown Athens. I’ve been wanting pictures for his apartment that I’m helping him decorate for a long time, so I was totally down for that idea. He then complained because I took too long on the walk back to his [...]

‘You’re every line, you’re every word …’

As if designing a wedding album isn’t enough fun, I got to design one for one of my closest childhood friends not too long ago. Jenny and Gary got married in May 2008 and I got to be a huge part of it by creating their graphics – wedding programs, favor books, and their wedding [...]

On bad fonts and good pranks and tramp stamps

So if you are a graphic designer or are friends with a graphic designer or have heard of graphic design, you probably know how hated the font Comic Sans is in the design community. It is so notoriously bad, in fact, that there is an entire web site devoted to its awfulness. When Chris was [...]

Beautiful bride makes memorable photos

The best part about shooting a wedding is getting a front-row seat to the couple’s magical day. I won’t subject you to all 1,400 of Amanda and Jason’s wedding photos (if you want to see them, click here: password Amanda), but I thought I’d pick out a few that stood out to me for one [...]

Wedding bloopers

Weddings wouldn’t be fun without some laughs, would they? A picture is worth 1,000 words (even taken with your own camera) but occasionally, taken out of context, the words can be much different than the reality. As I poured over the thousands (literally) of photos of Amanda and Jason’s wedding, some of them made me [...]

Don’t bring a camera to a wedding

Unless you are the photographer, of course. I have worked with wedding photographers for years who have preached this. Your “job” as a wedding guest is to – be a guest. I fully understand why people ignore this – they want their own pictures, they don’t want to have to purchase them from a photographer [...]
