May 2007 Archives

I got the nicest note from my bride from 5/12/07 (their pictures are yet to be blogged - but I am making a comeback on blogging - so stay tuned!) I just had to share her note - it made me feel so good! I edited a few things out that weren't necessary to the post (like logistics of picking up her pictures and such).

Kerry, these are awesome!!! I've looked at them so many times today. Thank you so much for the incredible job you did - everyone who's seen the pics so far absolutely loves them, Scott and I most of all. And thank you also for being so great to work with and for going above and beyond your role as photographer the day of the wedding. I sure appreciate all the extra things you did to help things run smoothly and to help keep me calm.

I'm sure you have past clients lined up a mile long willing to offer glowing reviews and references, but please add Scott and me to the list - we'd be more than happy to tell any potential clients about our wonderful experience with you. Take care, and we'll talk to you soon!

Stacy and Scott - Watch the blog you will be here soon! I thoroughly enjoyed working with you both, and your families and friends! Thank you for your thoughtful note!

Happy Cinco de Mayo and Happy Wedding day to Trisha and Dave! Today's event was held at Circle D Farms in Woodbine, Maryland. It was an absolute gorgeous day for an outdoor event. Here is what I saw: --------

Today I met Maryam and Abu in Washington DC for an engagement session. Here is what I saw: Maryam and Abu are my lucky 7-7-7 couple, I can't wait to work with them on their wedding day! There event is going to be so large, I lined up 2 assistants! I also am excited that Maryam wants to do a Trash The Dress session with me!!! (www.trashthedress.com). --------

I was asked to attend another agility trial. Here is what I saw: --------

One of my past clients (Dana and Drew from May 2006) mom called me and asked if I would be available to shoot on Capitol Hill for a Kids on Congress event! I jumped at the opportunity. There were more than 100 kids and their families on Capitol Hill from all over the United States. They had arranged meetings with Senators and Congressmen from every state to get their help to some regulations passed for how schools should deal with food allergies. This is a great thing, because a lot of these kids have very severe allergies!! You can view FAAN's website here (http://www.foodallergy.org/). Here is what I saw: Darcy, Thank you for contacting me to cover this event. IT was a great experience. I know the kids got some support for the bill and I hope they continue to get the support that they need. Thank you Julie for helping me today! --------

So it was alerted to me by a friend that some of my pictures on my blog look pixely. That is so my page loads faster for you. If you click on the actual pictures - you can see a much clearer version of it!! Again - as I make changes this is most likely something that will change as well! Just wanted to give ya'll and fyi though!! Happy Reading! --------

Today I had my first senior session - and they are great fun. Hopefully they are as much fun for the client as much as for me! I met Andy at his house and then we proceeded to go to his school (where we hit the tennis courts) and then the golf course and then ended back at his home! Homer the dog and Marbles the cat (I think that was the cats name) even made some appearances! Here is what I saw: --------

I don't normally do 2 events in one day - but this just worked out. I had a wedding booked for 4-21-07 and was contacted to do this shorter event in the morning - so I said yes! Today's event was held at a private residence in Great Falls, Virginia. It was a lovely day for a wedding by Walker Lake. Here is what I saw: This little turtle decided to oversee the ceremony as well - stand in Best Man or Maid of honor (don't have any idea if it was a male or female turtle!) --------
