The Wii is amazing!

Sunday, October 28, 2007 2:30 pm

I can’t remember the last time I’ve had a free weekend over the last several months to be able to actually enjoy it and relax. This weekend has been awesome, and since we purposely decided to not schedule anything so that we could enjoy it, we decided to go out and get one of our Christmas presents early, by getting the new Nintendo Wii! It’s been years since I’ve played a Nintendo game, and the Wii completely re-defines gaming with it’s interactive & realistic, wireless controllers and games. (Bowling, Baseball, Golf, Boxing, etc are insane, and a real workout believe it or not to play) You’d think I was advertising for Nintendo, but it’s seriously one of those things that even adults will go nuts over…… they are pretty hard to find right now, but I highly recommend it for an awesome Xmas present (or other) if you can find one.

By the way, in case some of you have no idea what I’m talking about, you can watch the video below to see how cool it is – Ok, back to my game, more later! :)

I also found this new story on how people are actually getting workouts on their wii’s…. pretty cool if you ask mii!

Jamie - We LOVE our Wii. It’s such a blast. You have to get Mario Party 8, if you haven’t already. It is a video board game, and a lot of fun!

I’m sure Tom will also have some comments on your new toy!November 2, 2007 – 11:56 am

Couple receives wedding photos after 27 years!

A family member forwarded this recent MSNBC article to me and thought I would share since I have nothing better to talk/report about today :) Depending on your situation, this will either make you laugh or scare you to death, but thought it was definitely an interesting read – enjoy!

October……

Sunday, October 21, 2007 4:27 pm

Before I forget, I wanted to post a few Fall photos I was able to get over the last 2 days while the leaves are at their peak here, in Upstate, NY. We had an engagement session today (blog entry coming soon on that too), and I cheated a little bit by shooting some of this stuff when I wasn’t supposed to…. enjoy :)

Engagements with Bob & Thomaura!

Sunday, October 21, 2007 4:21 pm

We’ve been doing a lot of engagement sessions lately, and now that the 2007 season is officially over, I’m really enjoying getting to know the next batch of 2008 clients we’ll be working with next year. There are a lot of really cool couples that I know I’m going to have a lot of fun being a part of the weddng at, and Bob & Thomaura are definitely one of those couples! We drove out to….. (come to think of it, I have no idea where I was today, haha) Canojoharie I think? to hang out with Bob & Thomaura this afternoon and got to not only do some engagement photos with them, but see the church and reception site, which are going to be absolutely insane in terms of photos! (You can see their church in my last post) – and Beardsly Castle looks to be an amazng place for their reception.

What I love most about these two, are their senses of humor – we seem to find ways to make fun of everything while shooting, which is great. I think they will end up being great friends, and we had a blast hanging out with them…. thanks for a fun shoot today, and for showing us around!

P.S. TOWEL, TOWEL, TOWEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Megan & Justin!!!

Sunday, October 21, 2007 3:27 pm


At the beginning of the year I wondered how we would manage to get through so many weddings, stay creative, stay rested, not get sick, keep up with the pace, and basically keep my sanity….. We offically wrapped up the end of our 2007 wedding season last night (other than one straggler wedding in November left), and I feel like the weight of the world is finally off of my shoulders. It is my own assumption that a wedding photographer is probably one of the most under estimated jobs out there in terms of stress, and it’s such an amazing feeling to look back on all the amazing weddings of this past year and all the new clients and close friendships we have made with our couples – thank you, everyone!

After driving to West Orange, New Jersey for a corporate shoot, we headed west out towards Binghamton for our final wedding of the “season” with good friends, Megan & Justin. I’ve known Megan for years now and it seems like forever ago they booked their wedding with us (way before we were even that popular really) – it was great to not only be a part of, but see two fantastic people have such an incredible wedding – they certainly deserved it. Despite the stress of a huge bridal party, everyone was so cool to work with and we certainly want to thank Megan, Justin, their bridal party and families for allowing us to document and spend the day with them!

We have so many incredible photos from the day/evening that we look foward to showing off, and will hope to have everything available for online viewing/ordering within about 3 weeks or so. For those intersted, you can pre-register your email at the link below to receive notification of when images from this wedding go live:

Thanks for everything guys and we hope you have fun on the honeymoon and look foward to hearing all about it when you get back!
Since we had a roughly 2.5 hour ride back home, Megan and Justin were kind enough to put us up in a hotel last night (THANK YOU!)….. we had to get up pretty early this morning to get home in time for a client meeting and engagement session, and this was the view as I got into my truck as well as a couple from the ride home….. it pretty much sums up this event for me…. beautiful.
P.S. 2 More blog entries coming, so don’t go anywhere!
