Water’s Edge Resort and Spa

2nd wedding done! My second wedding was at the Water’s Edge Resort and Spa in Connecticut. It was a bit of a drive and a late night drive home. Audrey and Chris were really fun to work with. I tried some new poses with them and practiced some of the techniques fom the DWF Convention. It was a smaller wedding but, it was full of life and happiness. I love this job! More pictures are here.

Back from the DWF Convention

I’m back from the DWF convention. It was amazing! I meet the best Digital Wedding Photographers in the world. From the likes of Yervant, David and Kassandra Beckstead, JVS, Cliff Mautner, Marcus Bell, Jeff Ascough, Becker, Mike Colon, Bruce Dorn and many more. It was truly inspiring and full of great information. I attendend seminars, a mentoring session with JVS, and we went to the Valley of Fire for a shoot with Yervant. I have some pictures from the convention here. Great Job Jeff Caplan and Gina Preston…. I can’t wait for next year! P.S. That’s me wearing my Boston colors below.

More Snow!

We had more snow over the weekend. Will it ever stop? Well, at least it lends itself to good photo ops. The fullsized image is here.

Lyceum Bar and Grill

My first solo wedding is done! Everything went very well, I was nervous but, excited to capture such a wonderful couple. It was a very big day in my life and I’m 100% sure that this is what I was meant for. More pictures can be seen here.
