New Sample Albums!

My new albums have arrived from Leather Craftsmen. I love these albums and the way they are made, look and feel. I've been using them for about 3-4 years now and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Check out how awesome these books are. TSP_7608TSP_7638TSP_7657TSP_7667TSP_7678

Meet Mary

Happy Friday! Hopefully this will warm up a chilly New England day. Check out the cuteness of little Mary. I don't do too many "studio" sessions but I found a location I've been dying to shoot in and what a model I had to work with. I couldn't go wrong. Check out a few from the session. Enjoy. ps. she actually reminds me of my daughter Gia a lot. A lot more calm than Gia but looks-wise!

Katherine & Jason | Snowy Bristol CT | Engagement

With the snow falling again today here in CT this shoot will bring a little warmth to the chilly weather. We were going back and forth waiting on the weather to see if we could get this shoot in. I thought it was going to be to wet and rainy but man was I wrong. The snow was perfect and Katherine and Jason were amazing to work with. Take a look at what we ended up with.

About Me

If you don't know someone and are trying to find out more about their business, services, personality etc, a lot of times you'll look them up and check out their "about me" page. I myself have 1 and I can't talk about myself without talking about my family. It's everything to me, absolutely everything. Nothing is more important in my world.  Some will try to keep their business and personal photos/feelings/insights separate, and I thought about it, but it's too much of who I am in all aspects of my life. So I feel like I'd be hiding a huge part of me if I didn't share.  The collage below IS my about me page. My favorite "personal" photos from 2013.

Light testing

Last week we were able to get into the Southington Crossfit building to play around with some lights and portrait stuff. If you're on the fence about joining crossfit, stop by here, talk to the coaches and they'll have you hooked. Great atmosphere. Anyway here are a couple finished shots from the other day. Photo of me is courtesy of Rob Booth.

We'll be back shooting more crossfitters sooon. Enjoy.
