In my opinion, this is one of the most important elections of our time (despite the fact that I’m still not 100% sure what I’m doing just yet) – I wasn’t sure where to vote, and found this great website that tells you where to vote in your town or city based on your address – for those that aren’t sure where to go or need to register still, the link below will tell you all you need to know:

You don’t know who you’re voting for?!? How can you STILL be undecided? The choices are so very different.
This oversimplifies things but should help you on your way to a decision:

I’m voting Obama and I can’t wait to cast that vote. But either way, it’s time for research and decisions by everyone privileged enough to get a vote.October 27, 2008 – 11:48 pm
Hmmm…interesting post and site – thanks for posting!
Yes – STILL undecided. It’s like being forced to pick one of two women to marry, but you don’t love either one of them – it’s not as easy of a decision as you may think for some. This helped me to get closer to my decision though for sure, thanks.October 27, 2008 – 11:56 pm
Just a few weeks ago, Jamaica and I had the opportunity to photograph Becky and Jeff’s wedding down in Poughkeepsie. We received a call last night that Becky’s grandfather had unfortunately passed away, and wanted to just post a quick note and offer our sincere condolences to both Becky & Jeff as well as their familes for their loss. Their grandfather was a great man and had quite the sense of humor (I will believe it or not always remember him from the wedding) – here’s a quick family photo we’ll be donating to to the family. Again, we are so sorry for your loss :(

Matt & Tonya – Words can’t express how much we appreciated your hard work yesterday. Through rain and wind, the two of you were such troopers! From what we saw on the slideshow and this teaser, the pictures are stunning! Thank you for keeping us calm and laughing, and thank you even more for capturing such beautiful images. We can’t wait for the vow renewals :-)October 26, 2008 – 9:20 pm
That looks like a super fantastic wonderful super cake!!!!!!!!! I just want to lick cake arrguuugguuuaaa!!!!October 27, 2008 – 10:26 pm
Matt & Tonya,
These pictures are amazing. I can’t wait to see them all. Of course, Jamie & Tom are the most beautiful couple ever!!!
The Hilton should use your picture of the room in their advertisements. The church picture is gorgeous. It was nice getting to know you guys. Now get to work and get those pictures done.(Please)October 28, 2008 – 9:19 pm
It’s always flattering when someone uses your image(s) for their advertising needs – here’s a quick sneek peek of the ad Make Me Fabulous will be featuring in this months addition of the Capital Region Living magazine’s bridal guide. Alayne & her team are not only super friendly to work with, but do amazing work – be sure to check them out on their website at www.makemefabulous.com!
P.S. Congrats to Shannan here for being the ad’s “covergirl”

Thanks for the shout out! I am fortunate to have had such an amazing team of professionals to work with on my special day!October 23, 2008 – 2:14 pm
What fabulous light here, Matt! Love the way you’ve revealed all the contours in the head and shoulders. Exemplary work….well done!October 23, 2008 – 7:35 pm
Living in the Northeast & New York certainly has it’s disadvantages when it comes things like taxes, cold weather, etc, however one things for sure – year after year, you can always count on great colors from the Fall foliage! (raking them is another story :)
Each year I do my best to try and add to my fall collection of images and really enjoy going out and trying to shoot new things as a work in progress - this is probably my most enjoyable thing to shoot on my own personal time. Unfortunately, I have been so busy this year, I have not had the time I wish I had to go out on these personal shooting adventures. When in doubt, there is always plan C, which is the backyard I suppose. Here are a few quick shots I wanted to share as well as well as my new wallpaper for my 30″ Apple Cinema – if anyone would like a copy, let me know! :)
The smaller shots below are a few of my all-time favorite photos taken over the past few years – I hope to get a chance to get out and shoot a bit more, but am coming quickly to the realization that it may not happen this year.
This weekend, we are in Staten Island shooting the wedding of good friends and blog-stalkers’ Tom & Jamie… be sure to check back for updates!

Wow, you actually made it to your backyard? I know your busy – but c’mon. Take off the bathrobe & slippers & take some pictures. (These are pretty good though)! You are the man! I thought I was the only “blog stalker”!October 22, 2008 – 9:15 pm

Matty – I love the shot of the leaves. But, you might want to rake them up before Tonya gets home.October 23, 2008 – 2:35 pm
