Thanks for the message. I'll shoot one back soon.

Something went funky, try it again!

Welcome to my Blog!

Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I shoot weddings here, there, and everywhere! I work out of the Delaware area, but travel anywhere that
roads go...or boats, or planes for that matter. I love what I do, not something many people can say, and
I guess that just makes me one of the lucky ones! If you invite me to shoot your wedding, I can promise
you the following things:

1- I will take some fantastic pictures for you
2- I will make at least ONE stupid joke during the day somewhere (I can't help it, they slip out).
3- If you offer me food, I will eat it.

Now jump over to the contact section and shoot me a message!


Delaware Rock Gym: A few climbers in action

I had the camera, so why not take some photos? Yea, I couldn’t think of a good reason not to either. Here’s some of the DRG crew en route.

This is how I roll when it snows.

I would never let a little snow keep me from my editing. In fact, I totally embrace the snow and make a brand new editing studio when the world turns frosty white. Though one of those waterproof ibm toughbooks would probably come in handy :)

Yea. It’s an igloo. You want to make something of it?

And lastly is the cutest little lady I’ve ever met. Sister Rosa Alvarez (known fondly as Sister Rosita) is one of the founders of La Esperanza’s pre and post-natal health program. Sister Rosita is very active and involved in her community around Georgetown, DE, educating and assisting mothers, or those who are expecting.

Hanging about. Literally.

Ventured out of Delaware to get in some  fun photography nonsense.  Headed over to Earth Treks Saturday with Tina.  Climbed some stuff, had a blast.  This girl is going to be mega strong, mega soon.

The Winter Burn: A Philadelphia Rock Gym Event

So for those of you that don’t know, I eat horribly. Fast food? Check. But the only reason I’m not super fat yet, is because I love to climb. It’s been a hobby since I started college back in 2003. If you’ve never done it, give it a try, and if you want someone to go with, gimme a call, I’m always down to go!

So these are some shots from the Winter Burn hosted by the Philadelphia Rock
Gym II. Take a look!

Red, white, and black.

Some of you might recognize Sarah from…every other part of my life, but you may not have seen Melissa before. Talented student/musician, and pretty darn good looking as well! Headed out to the mall, ate chinese (yum) and bought some new clothes to have some fun shooting tonight! Enjoy!

A couple beers and puppy dog ears!

What’s better than a good looking Golden Retriever?  A Golden Retriever with a really amazing looking owner!  I finally had the chance to meet Tina today in Philadelphia.  And what a relief, she’s awesome.  Walked around the art museum area, faced wind chills that would have made a snowman shiver, and then polished it all off with some Irish coffee and wine (plus lamb chops…yum).  Here’s Tina and her beautiful pup Isabelle.

Samantha + John :: Westchester, NY

I met these two last Christmas at a friends holiday party, and somewhere between the santa

hats and the bottle of Sake, we got to talking about wedding photography.  Well let me tell

you, I was super lucky to get to shoot their wedding.  So much fun!  Huge, HUGE family and

each and every one of them was ridiculously nice.  On top of that, there was a sick cake,

and two, count ‘em, TWO accordion players.  Cocktail hour, was more like a dinner, and

it was followed by…a dinner.  The most food by far that I’ve ever seen at a wedding.  Sam

and John are just two of the most fun, laid back, and overall great people I’ve ever had

the pleasure of working with.  Nibble on this:
