New Testimonial – I’m flattered

I’m in the process of having my website redesigned, and I recently asked some
of my past clients if they’re be interested in writing some thoughts on
what it was like working with me.

Katelin sent me hers today
and I was blown away. She’s so sweet and I’m flattered by all of her
kind words. Katelin – please know I has just as much fun working with
you too! =)

Katelin’s Testimonial


It was two years ago that I decided that Tony was the person I wanted
to shoot my senior pictures. He had shot a senior from my school and as
soon as I saw her pictures I knew he had to do mine. So as my final
year of school approaches, I talked my mom into getting my senior
pictures taken by him and after a quick phone call I was set for my
shoot. In the following weeks before my shoot, Tony and I communicated
through email tossing ideas around about my interests and possible
locations that I had in mind. I told him of a couple of his previous
photos that I liked but I also wanted my pictures to be different, I
wanted them to be me. That’s when Tony gave me the idea of wearing my
prom dress in the middle of a softball field. It would capture not only
that I was a hard core softball player but I could rock a prom dress in
the middle of a field.

When I arrived at the studio the day of
my shoot, I felt as if I had already met Tony through our previous
conversations. This helped make me feel very comfortable and Tony was
able to easily capture the true me that all of my friends see on a
daily basis. After signing a couple of papers he told me of the
numerous locations he had in mind and off we went. Throughout the shoot
Tony was extremely helpful as he helped instructed me what outfit would
look well with each location and with different ideas of how to stand
or sit to get the best picture possible. He was also real cool with any
suggestions I had and he made them all possible. When my shoot was
finally over it seemed as if the two hours had flown by and I didn’t
want to stop. I had tons of fun and couldn’t wait to see the final
pictures.

About two weeks ago I returned to Somerset where we
viewed the pictures on Tony’s big screen TV. He was very patient as my
mom and I asked him to replay the pictures again and again as we
discussed the most minor details. He told us to take our time and make
sure we knew exactly what we wanted. Then within a week and a half, I
had my pictures in my hand. They turned out absolutely amazing. My
pictures capture my personality to a T and will help people remember 20
years from now exactly who I am. I could not ask for a better
photographer to take my pictures and I would recommend him to anyone
who was looking to be photographed.

Nicole’s Senior Photos

Yesterday I had the chance to work with Nicole and shoot her senior photos. She had some great vintage cocktail dresses and I loved her sense of style. It was great working with her and her family.
















Ashley & Jake’s engagement photos

Yesterday I had the chance to work with Jake and Ashley and to shoot their engagement photos. I’ll be shooting their wedding in a few weeks and I can’t wait. I had a blast working with their and know their big day is going to be extremely fun.

elspeth47 - Ashley’s mom really likes the first photo in green!

Anyone hungry?

What better way to enjoy a summer day than to have a barbecue. And what could be more tasty than firing up the grill and cooking your very own Ground Beef… fatties.

Yum.


Is that a rattling sound I hear?

Earlier today Sharon and I were near Laurel Mountain State Park when we noticed a snake moving in the grass near one of the rest areas. We had our camera with us so we decided to get a bit closer and check it out. Well, when we got close enough we could hear the tell-tale rattle. Sure enough, it was a rattle snake – I think an eastern diamondback.

I think snakes get a bad rep. This one wasn’t mean at all. It just wanted to be left along and after a warning rattle, it quickly slithered through the grass and back into hiding.
