Sharing a few images from a recent Fall session with Zack and Leah’s lovely family.

A few weeks ago, my wife and I spent a Saturday volunteering at memory care facility whose residents are living with Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia. We grabbed shots of residents in an informal setting as they walked the lovely garden onsite, taking time to interact with each as they came through. Towards the end of our day, we spent 5-10 minutes with families who were onsite visiting loved ones, to capture a few moments of them together.

I cannot recall a more emotional, rewarding use of my time than this afternoon. Through the smiles, laughs, and tears, I found the staff to be incredible, the families gracious, and the residents lovely.

If you have a gift, skill, or even a few hours of your time, I would urge you to think about how you can use these things in a way that impacts others, and makes this world a better place to live.

Sharing a few shots from a recent session with this lovely family. It's been a long offseason, but spending an hour with them reminded me how much I love getting to do what I do.

Sharing a peek behind the curtain today with a glimpse of what my process looks like after our time shooting your session ends. Once back in my office, the process of culling 600+ images down to a manageable gallery happens, and then the editing process begins.

Please feel free to leave any questions you may have about this process in a comment below, and I'll do my best to answer them for you.

Sharing a few more shots from my golden hour shoot earlier in the week.

This family was so much fun to work with. If you would like to have pictures with this golden glow, we still have a few weeks of summer left ... Let's go shoot together!

Sharing a few shots from a golden hour session I had with Igor and Stephanie's amazing family earlier in the week.

These warm summer days offer some incredible light, and the best part is that you can still schedule a shoot at golden hour shoot during the middle of the week this time of year and still work a full day, leaving your weekend free and clear.

If you're in the Covington area, these were shot locally and can be done in less than 45 minutes.

Flowers, trees, or hair ... A splash of color can really make an image pop!
