Sincere Thanks Due... So, Thank You Kristin!

(yes, she did indeed get into a bath tub, on her wedding day, in her actual wedding dress!!!)

I am going to take a break from all the shameless self promotion and do something I should have done a long time ago. While I am truly blessed to have several evangalist brides out there, singing my praises wherever they can, one has continued to deliver friends, co-workers and just about anyone else who will listen to my doorstep. Since I did her wedding on April 29, 2006 Kristin has sent more referrals my way than I can count, and I am serious about that. I know I have done at least 3 weddings directly as a result of her and I am positive I am forgetting a few. That's as much a testament to my horrible memory as it is Kristin's unwavering support of what I have been doing over the years.

Having just met with the most recent of  "Kristin's Girls" that is interested in booking my services, and having spent some time reminiscing about her wedding, I thought it was appropriate to publicly thank her for all she's done for me and my business. It's brides like her, and really most of my brides who go so far above and beyond to send their friends and family my way that is the life-blood of what I do. I take it as the highest form of compliment that you would personally recommend me to your people.

So, thanks to Kristin and all the rest of you for helping me continue to deliver what I hope is the highest possible level of service I can to the ones you love.

Washington DC E-Shoot: Michelle+Michael

(The above is one of my favs of the year so far... taken on the steps of the Jefferson Memorial)

To say our trip to DC was great is simply selling it short. The sights were fantastic and the two E-Shoots I did were even better. The first shoot was with Mike and Michelle. They wanted to capture some of the locations that had meaning in their life together like Dupont Circle where both of them have spent a lot of time, to the bridge at the Tidal Basin where they shared their first kiss. This shoot was full of romance and exploration not to mention wind and cold. Michelle was a trooper in her dress braving the (to me as a Florida-boy anyway) bitter cold of the day and she looked fantastic doing it. More from the trip in general and the 2nd E-Shoot later!

Thanks again Knotties!!!

Thanks to all my "Knottie" brides out there singing my praises on the Knot, I have been awarded a "The Knot Best of Weddings 2008/2009 Pick" award for the second year in a row. I am also one of just three 3-Star rated photographers (the highest rating) in the region. Thank you again!

SOLD OUT for October, November and December!!!

Wow. Funny things happen when you look at your calendar. I did that a few minutes ago and realized that with the last wedding I booked, I am totally booked for the months of October-December, with at least one wedding every weekend. That's a first for me, and all thanks to you who have decided to include me in your wedding plans. I look forward to an exciting, busy time and exceeding your expectations! January and February are booking fast now so if you have a date in mind, get it booked early!

Now... off to DC for a couple E-Shoots!
