Some Fun on Lake George

I ran out of apples to shoot, so I instead we headed up to Lake George today to hang out with Jennifer and her family to do some portraits at their family lake house. It’s been awhile since I’ve had the opportunity to get up that way, and you couldn’t have asked for a nicer day to be near the lake and hang out with such a nice family. Thanks again to the Curtis family and hope you enjoy your vacation!
Here’s a few sample shots – be sure to check back tomorrow for round 2!

Sticky Fingers!

It’s been an amazing week this week, and an extremely busy one at that….. I’ve had more client meetings in this past week alone than the entire month before I think! The good news is that we booked an amazing 5 more 2008 weddings within the past 5 days, which is definitely a record. (it’s crazy how business can spike all of the sudden like that). I love all the new couples that have signed on for their 2008 weddings and am really excited to be a part of their weddings next year!

Due to the busy week (and it’s not over yet), I’m a bit behind on my blog entrees, so figured I’d post something to try and keep up to date with things. Lately, we’ve been branching into a lot of different projects, which is a treat to get away from weddings to try new things every now and again. Today’s prjoect was working with John, who is the owner of Sticky Fingers Apples, and offers an amazing service and product to his clients. They are a reasonably new business and decided to get some new “eye candy” photos of their products for the website. Not only was John and his wife great to deal with, but I was so impressed with what they can do with an apple…. I can’t say I’ve ever craved an apple as badly as today trying to shoot this stuff!

Anyway, you should without a doubt check out their website and try a few of their products…. they have very unique flavored candy apples, and even offer cool gift baskets… you can check out the website at http://www.stickyfingersapples.com/! (by the way, John left me one of the “peanut butter cup” apples today, and it was so amazing, it’s almost good enough to include in a wedding package :)

You can see the rest of the photos on their site that we shot today, but here’s one of my favorite photos from today’s project with them. We have more blog entrees coming soon this week, so be sure to check back if you get bored :)

Congratulations, Don & Mallory!!

Without a doubt an exhausting weekend, yet two amazing back to back weddings I’m extremely proud to have been a part of! Tonight, we celebrated the wedding of Don & Mallory and had a blast working with them and capturing the day as it unfolded. It’s amazing the love these two share for one another, and I have no doubt they are going to have an amazing marriage together.

We got some really cool shots today and as always will be going through hundreds of images in the hopes to have things sorted and uploaded for online viewing/ordering within a couple weeks. For those that are interested in pre-registering their email, you will receive automatic notification once images go live. You can do so by simply clicking the link below:

On top of now two weddings to go through, we have several meetings lined up for 2008 weddings this week and are booking up EXTREMELY fast all of the sudden…. I can tell it’s going to be a crazy week. I’m beyond exhausted right now, but please check back as we’ll have lots of updates and shoots to share samples of later in the week!

Congrats again, Don & Mallory!!!

Congratulations, Marc & Carrieann!

While photographing another wedding nearly 3 years ago, we had the opportunity to meet Carrieann & Marc (who were guests), and it wasn’t long after that we planned to shoot their wedding! It seems like an eternity ago when I think about it, but the day finally came for them to wed, and I’m so glad to have been a part of it (not to mention, it was awesome to see the couple who’s wedding we shot and introduced us so long ago)

I have only a few hours to get all the photos downloaded, backed up, batteries charged, and a few hours sleep before getting up and doing this all over again tomorrow, but I wanted to sincerely thank Marc & Carrieann as well as their family and friends for allowing us to spend the day with them. We have tons of photos that I look forward to going through, and hope to have everything sorted and uploaded for online viewing/ordering within 2 weeks or so.

For those interesed, you can pre-register your email by clicking the link below to receive confirmation of when the images go live and are available for viewing. On that note, I’m off to bed to get some rest for tomorrow’s event!

My New Crackberry!

Since the release of the Blackberry smartphone a couple years ago, I have been absolutely addicted to them, and find myself constantly upgrading to the latest and greatest model (I think my wife is about to kill me). I picked up my now 5th Blackberry this week (the 8803 World Edition), and absolutely love it! I’ve never been known to be an organized guy and always prefered to sorta go with the flow, rather than have everything planned out….. with business being absolutely insane right now, I couldn’t possibly keep track of all the places I need to be and things going on, so having my entire schedule, phone & email in my pocket at all times really helps me to stay super organized!

For whatever the reason, website hits and client emails & calls have sky-rocketed this week and 2008 weddings are beginning to book up quickly – while I’m not sure what caused this, you can see the sudden spike in website hits (not even including the blog) by clicking the photo above..it’s amazing how excited I used to get over getting 10 people to visit the website on a good day, and now we are getting well over 100 hits per day, which is amazing for a photography website in my opninion. Anyway, if you know someone getting married, you may want to have them get in touch with us sooner than later…. here is a link to our current calendar/schedule so you can see how crazy this year is going to be!
