You could say that it was love at first contact, but it was their first date that sealed the deal. They both knew immediately that they had found their happily ever after.
Sandy + Michael were married on a rainy day in April. They were surrounded with their family, friends, co-workers and children. It was obvious to see that every one was excited to celebrate their union. They would all tell you that this wedding has been a long time coming.
I often get ask why I require my clients to see a professional hair and makeup artist before scheduling their photography session. So this week, I put myself in their shoes. I asked a good friend of mine to photograph me with no makeup on, with my everyday makeup, and with my makeup professionally done. Even as a photographer, I was surprised by the results...

Maybe you couldn't afford a great wedding photographer when you got married. Or maybe you did pay for a wedding photographer and for whatever reason you just hate your wedding photographs. Perhaps you just love being married to your spouse and you want to celebrate another year in your journey together.
This past week I had the opportunity to sit in on the live course Tony Corbell taught at CreativeLive. It was a two day in-depth course on almost every light shaping tool that is available to photographers. Friends, I still cannot believe how much I learned. Tony did an excellent job demonstrating the pros and cons of each light shaping tool. Then he also demonstrated with a variety of ways to use the tool.
