After a busy week of cross country, high school football, and middle school soccer, I’m officially running on empty. Grateful for the opportunity to capture so many great moments — from the quiet trails of the cross country course to the energy in the stands on Friday night and the intensity along the soccer sidelines.

I'm excited to let you know that The Middlebury Summer Festival 5k and 1 mile run Gallery is finally ready to view. I sincerely apologize for the delay. Unfortunately, I ran into an issue with a corrupted SD card that affected all of the images from the event. Recovering the files took some time, but thankfully I was able to recover them successfully

Lighting can make or break a performance photo.

A quick reminder to those designing lighting for school performances, concerts, and stage productions: heavy red, blue, and purple lighting may seem dramatic in person, but it often creates major challenges for photography and video. These colors can wash out skin tones, remove detail, and make it difficult to capture clear, natural-looking images of performers.

Photographers work hard to preserve these moments for students, families, and schools. Balanced lighting not only improves photos it also helps the audience better see expressions, costumes, and performances live.

A little consideration in lighting design goes a long way toward creating memories that truly reflect the hard work happening on stage.
