wonder today.... be fuller today

I love what we do. And I wish others to enjoy our images as well. But almost more than that, I hope our images will inspire each of you to find a creative space in your day to think differently; to wonder. Wonder can become a child's pastime and a lost art. It is something that, I believe, keeps us feeling alive and gives us the freedom to feel fuller with each day, even in it's routine. I will admit, I can be bogged down with the "routine" like anyone else, and I seek inspiration in others often; whether it be from an author, an illustrator, or even other photographers.

I believe we should all strive to be more rounded. I'm not saying we should deny the fact we each have gifts and leanings in certain areas, such as analytic vs' creative, I'm saying that whichever way we lean, we should strive to "cross-over", seeking new ground and inspiration to add to the fullness of our lives.

The images below are some of my favorites from the stanley wedding we recently had the joy of shooting. "Creatives" themselves, we felt at home as we infused their wedding with as much creativity as possibly. We strive to do this with each and every shoot, and I hope future couples looking for a photographer can see the passion and "wonder" we strive to fill our sessions with.

live. inspire. create something.

french sneak peek

Tim and Amber were married in Fredericksburg, Virginia. We arrived July 4th in DC and were able to check out the town early on the 5th before we started shooting. This is a great example of what can be achieved when you learn your surroundings, and map out a plan. The day flew by as we went from one scene to the next, and Tim and Amber were great as they allowed us to run them around for a several hours. I think you'll see we got some amazing shots and the whole day turned out pretty incredible!

SPECIAL: What is our Creative Session? (the stanley session)

ONE OF OUR FAV SHOOTS!
It's hard to say which shoot is our favorite, but in the top contenders I'd say it is our CREATIVE SESSION product. The CREATIVE SESSION differs from our other shoots, in that we dress the couple in their wedding garb and act as if we are doing a cover shoot for one of the top magazines. There's less stress present than is on your typical wedding day, and we have the opportunity to inspire using various textures, "artsy locations" and even creative makeup & hairstyling.

This is an example of what you can expect when you order a CREATIVE SESSION with us. Each session takes on a life of it's own and differs, even when using similar ideas and locations.

IT'S NEVER TOO LATE FOR YOUR CREATIVE SESSION!
Even if you've already had your wedding pictures taken, or have booked a photographer for your wedding, we'd love to shoot a CREATIVE SESSION for you. CREATIVE SESSIONS can be done anytime, and anywhere. Come and see for yourself what everyone is raving about!
