Heather and Bill August 21, 2010

So many plans, so many details go into making a wedding day spectacular. The venue, the cake, the DJ, the dress all have to be perfect in the eyes of the couple. For Heather and Bill everything was perfect, including the love they have for each other which was captured in their amazing images. Heather and Bill's wedding was also unique in that they were the first winning couple of 2010 for a free studio photobooth! Congratulations to the fantastic couple!

Laura and Brett August 14, 2010

The bigger the bridal party the better in my opinion. Laura and Brett had 18 members in their bridal party, and where some may think chaos, it was anything but that! Spending time with the girls prior to the ceremony, while performing their getting ready shots, sheds light on the dynamics of the group. Are they friends, do they know each other, should we expect cat fights at the reception? Thankfully that has never happened at one of the weddings we've attended:) This is also a minor glimpse into how creative we can be with the bridal party during their creative shots. Laura and Brett's group were awesome to work with. Everyone was very laid back and excited to be working with us on creating unique images for the newlyweds. Hands down I must give props to that group for being one of the best large wedding parties we've every worked with! Congrats Laura and Brett, one of our favorite weddings of the year and another very compatible couple!

Portrait Models

A photographer friend had recently told me a great piece of advice, "To keep your wedding eye fresh, you should shoot other medias". With that said we are a constant learning house that works with local models or friends for practicing poses and studio portraiture. Friends of ours, Steph and Cindy were able to join us in Hershey for a fun sunset shoot while we worked with some new lighting techniques. The outcome was spectacular and the ladies have some great images to take from our learning lesson:)

Hunter's Senior Shoot

I love weddings. They are amazing, tons of fun, and definitely my passion, however there is something special that can be created for portait sessions. With portaits you're working one-on-one and there is ample time to try new things including creative lighting techniques.

One of my favorite portrait sessions are Seniors. They're always willing to do anything for a good shot, hence Hunter. Hey Hunter.. can you climb up in this huge truck.. how about the silo.. can you climb that.. see that old milk truck.. let's get you up there too. I think all those climbing for creativity skills paid off! You be the judge;-)
