Summer Family Portraits

The summer is a busy time for family portraits wether at the beach or park. Everyone is together and feeling that healthy glow from being outdoors. Here are a few out takes from some recent portrait sessions.

okay not a family shot – but I photographed this dragon fly during a family session. :)

Black, White and Color

Katie and Neil’s wedding was beautiful in black & white and color. When I am editing a wedding I go through each photo and decide how it should be processed. I love black and white photographs as I originally learned photography in a dark room developing just that. But with digital you have the choice and most of the time with weddings – the colors are just too vibrant to ignore! That being said I always make a selection of black & white photographs. I really love some of the ones from Katie and Neil’s wedding below. There is something so timeless about a monochrome image.

A Royal Wedding

Catherine and Bryan’s wedding was fit for a King and Queen. Held in Huber Court at the Chrysler Museum the bride and groom actually sat on thrones during their reception! Other royal elements included the vibrant purples used in the dresses and flowers. Michelle & Kim from Weddings by Michelle and Blue Steel lighting really made it all come together. But even with all the grand elements this wedding was no stuffy affair! Catherine, Bryan and their court partied the night away!
