Grooms get the same care as brides on my end, they just don't ask for it as often.

For this one I used the window and curtain like a stage light with barn doors, letting just enough in to shape his face and leave the rest in shadow. Dramatic, masculine, and exactly the kind of portrait most grooms don't even know to ask for until they see it.

Trina & Tommy are married! Tommy told me when they booked me, he was going to be my oldest ever groom, and he was right. But who says love is only for the young?

Congratulations, Trina and Tommy.

What Darkness Hides

Five candles. You count them from the dark.
She drifts through the fog like she’s lost.

The flames go out one by one.
Your chance is coming.

Then something pale is in her hands. She strokes its crown, slow and gentle. Her hair falls over her face like a drawn curtain.

You lean closer.
She lifts her head.

Bone grins where her face should be.
The hunter becomes the hunted.

Happy Halloween

The romance of the recessional and the energy of the dance floor. The day goes fast. The photos are how you bring it all back.

Congratulations, Natalie and V’Randre.

Still haven't gotten photos of the kids this year?

On Saturday, November 7, I’ll be at the park for fall minis. You get 20 minutes, 15 or more edited images, and a private online gallery for $150. There’s no long session to get through and no stiff posing. Let the kids run, let dad swing them around, let them cuddle up to mom, and let me catch it all.

They'll never be this age again.

Limited to 6 sessions. Email [email protected] to claim a time.

Natural light or flash? Can you tell?

Some are straight natural light. Some have flash mixed in to shape the light or fix a problem the sun couldn't. But unlike some of my previous posts, the results don't look highly stylized. And that's the point, right? Knowing how to use the light so that I can make it look natural or stylized based on what I want.

This is the part of the job most people never think about. The light is doing as much work as the moment itself.

The years will go by whether you get the photos or not. Your kids will never be this size again. You see it every day, and you keep meaning to get the photos. Then the season gets busy, and a whole year goes by.

A fall mini is for that. Twenty minutes, $150, and 15 or more edited images of your family exactly as they are right now. No stiff poses, and no stress of worrying about how the kids will act for a whole 90 minute session. Just you, your kids, and a park in fall color. Laugh, play, let them climb all over you. I’ll handle the rest.

Saturday, November 7. Limited to 6 sessions. Email [email protected] to claim a time. If it sounds good, we can get you scheduled.

Natalie and V’Randre picked a pretty day and a pretty barn, and the rest took care of itself.

Pampas grass in old dairy crates. A flower girl who was as cute as could be. And a groom who needed a minute before she got to him.

A wedding goes by faster than anyone plans for. The photos are how you get to walk back in.

Congratulations, Natalie and V’Randre.

Neither of these happens without off-camera flash. Without a flash to light the couple, they'd have gone dark when trying to preserve the sky, or the sky would've blown out trying to expose for them. Same story downtown: the flash lets me light my couple and keep them the subject while preserving the sunset colors and the nighttime vibes.

A natural light photographer waits for the light to be right and works within it. I'd rather bring my own and make the light right, wherever we are and whatever time it is.
