Updated Website

I’ve spent the past couple of months sampling thousands and thousands of songs to freshen up our website; most of those thousands have been heard just within the past week (my ears are so tired!). You would not believe how incredibly difficult it is to define our photography through music. There were dozens of songs...

Nurture

In just a few more weeks, Baby H. will meet the world. This baby couldn’t have a better set of parents waiting on his arrival…we know this firsthand because this mama and pop went to college with Ryan & me (“Pop” and Ryan lived in the same dorm freshman year). But, not only that- the...

Memory Lane

It feels like I was just photographing Baby B’s newborn session and here it is, already two years later, with a new addition to the family (see the last file in this series for a comparison between Baby L & Baby B). I see a lot of similarities, especially in their eyes, but, in terms...

All Summer Long

During a session last night, I discovered these Goblin Blanket Flowers (correct me if I’m wrong) bursting into bloom. The color was so intense that I simply had to come back for more! Perhaps I’ve forgotten, but in all of my years photographing near this location, I can’t recall such saturated blossoms. Thankfully, what I...

While we offer editing services for both our video and photography, more often than not, there’s a graphic design team already in place with the businesses and advertising agencies I...

Sessions at the Ohio State Fair

Happy First Day of Summer! It’s hard to believe that it’s already time to start promoting portrait sessions for the Ohio State Fair. While the fair actually begins July 27th, Ryan and I will be in Santa Fe through the end of next month. We’ll be available to schedule sessions at the fairgrounds between August...

Rainy Day

2011 has been one of the rainiest years I can recall and it’s been wreaking havoc on our portrait schedule! Though we didn’t let the rain scare us away this evening. Miss H. & Mr. N. didn’t seem to mind at all, and N’s parents even packed a pair of galoshes so he could splash...

Mount Carmel Commercial Photography

In honor of the hospital that got me all fixed up last week, I thought I’d share some photos I’ve come across either in the hospital hallways (sorry for the quick snaps!) or as reading material here and at my local Urgent Care. I was admitted into the hospital late Wednesday night and stayed through...
