I feel reinvigorated coming off of our first wedding weekend in 2012! We shot a wedding at Franklin Plaza and put together a fun Photo Booth for the reception…photos coming soon! The Photo Booth is just one of the things that we’ve added to our services this year (more to come). So, I took a little time off of blogging but I’m happy to be back at with...
Learn MoreBeing a Wedding Photographer is definitely interesting and I have to say that I’ve had some great experiences. Sometimes I think that If I had the patience I could write a small book from the stuff that I’ve experienced in the past 13 years of photography. One thing that I’ve been wanting to do for a while is to shoot a live proposal. I knew it would...
Learn MoreI went back to downtown Schenectady again (weren’t we just here on the last blog post?) but this time I was there for Brittney and Nick’s engagement photo session. This couple has a wedding coming up this Fall at Treviso in Albany and they liked the idea of doing a night-time city style e-session before their big day. I’m starting to really enjoy these...
Learn MoreI think I’ve mentioned before how much I love to shoot at a new place. So, I was happy when I found out about the battlefield in Saratoga and even more happier when Anna and Luke liked the idea of doing their engagement photo session there. This place is definitely one of those hidden gems in Saratoga. There was a lot to work with out there and we could’ve...
Learn MoreIf someone thinks we don’t shoot engagement photos in the winter should have seen me an hour ago bundled up in a hat, gloves and scarf shooting a couple that was in town for the holidays…brrr. Well, I’m back in the warmth of the studio and I figured that this would be a good time to blog one of last months e-sessions that I did when I still had feeling...
Learn MoreReferrals are great and very much appreciated. I can’t stress that enough. Nearly 40% of the weddings that we shoot come from a good word from a past bride or another wedding vendor that we’ve worked with. So, I was happy when Kiamisha and Earl asked me to be their Wedding Photographer for their big day, since they were in a wedding that we shot recently...
Learn MoreThat’s it…we’re done with shooting Wedding Photography till February 2012. But we have a few more weddings and engagement sessions to blog in the next few weeks. So, we still have alot more work to do. One of our last engagement sessions this year was with Candy and John. This couple’s wedding day will be in November 2012 and they booked me as...
Learn MoreWe have four more weddings to go to end the year. Three of them are this weekend, so I thought it was a good idea to get as many blogs out this week before things get crazy (i’m hoping that we don’t run out of coffee). So, here’s blog #4 for the week! Kristin and Dave liked the idea of making their engagement session a little more personal by using the...
Learn MoreI love shooting at new places…well new to me anyway. Jodi, one of my Summer 2012 brides had a great idea to head out to the Barns of Nipmoose for their engagement photo session. This place offered so much to work with…ponds, corn field, great trees and of course barns. I thought it would be a really nice idea to shoot their photos during sundown. I’m not...
Learn MoreWe’re coming to the end of the wedding and engagement sessions for the year, but we have plenty of editing and blogging to get through. So, this will hopefully be another week of back to back photo blogs as we play catchup(I hope everyone checked out yesterday’s wedding blog). More than a month ago I drove from Albany to Cooperstown to meet with Jennifer and...
Learn MoreI’ve been in the Capital District for around seven years now and I just realized that I’ve never done an engagement session downtown Schenectady till now. Just an oversight…I guess. I’ve done the city thing in Albany, Saratoga, even all the way down in Cooperstown but never Schenectady. I was definitely missing out on something because I had a...
Learn MoreI just opened Facebook to see everyone talking “TGIF” (not the restaurant) and I just couldn’t help but think…What about the people that work on the weekend? For some reason “TGIM” just doesn’t sound right I guess. Interesting thought…you will never hear a Wedding Photographer say “thank goodness it’s...
