Welcome to my new FB Photography page. As many of you already know I run Crystal Lake Pictures whose focus is primarily wedding photography and wedding videography. This new page will be an area that I use to promote my non-wedding type photography or filmmaking, everything from portraits, events, to just cool stuff I capture with my camera. So if you enjoy my photography, follow me here and I’ll try to keep it interesting.
