Joe sold Michelle and I our first house and we’ve developed a friendship over the years. I’ve been doing real estate photos for Joe for the past 4 or 5 years as he balances selling homes and managing historic renovations for folks. Joe has a love for old homes, neighborhood development, and the community at large. Abbie has a love for turning old furniture into new creations to sell and contribute funds a nonprofit organization she’s a part of.

It seemed like the old GE Campus that is now known as, Electric Works, was a perfect place to take some engagement photos. We had to move quickly to preserve what little daylight that was left by the time we could all get there. We did the best we could with the 15 minutes we had and with the use of some off camera flash. I think we did ok under the circumstances.

Wishing you all the love and happiness that comes with marriage and uniting lives together.

I kind of lost track of this photo blog, but haven’t stopped taking photos. Besides being consumed with the more important things in life beyond hobby photography blogging, I’ve had a few thoughts about these blogs. It’s a privilege to be invited into a family’s life to document that specific date or season of it. They usually ask me around a specific time and have a goal with their photos to share it with family, friends, and anyone else they want to celebrate life with. It’s usually quite awhile after I’ve given them the photos that they choose to share those photos, which delays when i would share them since the easiest time to share them for me is when it’s part of my workflow. Therefore, I get busy and don’t prioritize the time to come back to this website to share them or write about the family. I’m definitely alright with this and would rather not show any images at all rather than share before the family does.

Thank you to all the families in the past year that have invited me to photograph their family. It’s a blast and I love seeing your families grow.

I’ve also been busy photographing homes for my friend, Joe of Ambitions Real Estate. He’s been busy selling homes and doing more and more renovation projects. I don’t share too many of the typical suburban house shoots as they’re usually not very interesting unless you’re looking to buy one of them. My favorite projects to share are the ones where Joe buys and renovates. He likes to do before and after images, which are way more fun to shoot. So, here are a few of his next project.

It's that time of the year again when I get all my favorite families and a few new families together for photographs. The warm fall light, the changing colors, and the fall wardrobe returns as we enter the hidden fields wondering whether our children brought their A-Game. No matter what happens, we always get good shots and have plenty of treat incentives.

If you're interested in working with me this fall, send a note soon to get on the calendar. I have limited weekends available and can usually fit in an after work shoot during the week.
