Happy Birthday!!!

Tomorrow is Mr. A’s big day; he turns one year old! I’m so lucky to have been able to watch him grow over the past year. He was such a charmer the very first day we met and, despite cutting-in his very last baby teeth, still pulled out that infectious, (now face-scrunching) smile. I even...

Fine Art Portrait Study

One of my most favorite things to do as a photographer is to spend time with a subject and focus on capturing a very small number of images. I may collect & show 30-40 wildly different images from one of our standard photo sessions, but for an in-depth portrait study, I’m experimenting and/or working within...

Bryan McMahan

Kismet. That’s how Bryan described our meeting to update images in his modeling portfolio. This is a crazy-small world. He grew up just a stone’s throw away from the rural Appalachian hills where I was raised. Also, he mentioned that his make-up artist was just a block or so away from our studio and had...

Magnolia Season

Happy Spring!!! I just checked in on last year’s notes and saw that the magnolia trees were in bloom before April 2nd. Just two weeks later and the masses of flowers had already faded away! So, this is your annual reminder that it’s time to get your name in our books if you’d like to...

It was great to see so many friends and familiar faces through the entire event (especially Heather Garner who puts so...

We finished off several pastries and a dozen fresh croissants from La Chatelaine, all served around a map of Paris that I picked up at the Louvre. Now, as I...

Maternity Book

I just wrapped up a custom book design for this lovely maternity client. I didn’t get a sneak peek up for her portrait session last month, so just wanted to share a snippet now, taken from the book’s cover. Isn’t she beautiful!?! Share on Facebook

Wait For It…

If you haven’t already friended me on Facebook and been following the status updates on my wall, I’ve been holding on to some very big news for the past few weeks. This is going to be a pretty long story so, like the title says, just wait for it… For non-photographers out there reading, WPPI...

Artwork by Susan Gryn

So, a client/friend of ours wrote a couple weeks back to set up a time to get together to give us a gift. We’re so lucky & grateful to receive gifts from so many of our clients, but usually that rolls in around the holidays or shortly after a portrait session. We hadn’t photographed this...
