Another from the parking garage

Here is another quick shot for you from the shoot we did the other day at the steam town mall. I really love these photos!! By the way, check out Lainey as one of the Pioneers Arena Football Team Cheerleaders! I know she'd love it if you went out to a game to say hi.

What have I been up to ??????

WOW
Where to start.
Anyways... I guess I will start by saying this.... I have never been so excited to edit a session after only having touched the first image. The first image is what you see in this post. Its from a shoot I did yesterday where we went into the parking garage at the steam town mall in Scranton! People of course were wondering what the heck we were doing haha, but the photos were worth it.

I did two shoots yesterday actually in Scranton. The first we even ended up shooting some of it in the rain. The rest of the day was nice and sunny for us though!

Today I shot another shoot in various Wilkes Barre locations with a Senior from Wyoming Valley West. I am SUPER excited abotu that shoot as well. So in the last two days... I have done 3 shoots that are just ready to blow my mind!!!!

I had a great engagement shoot this weekend too with Brian & Kate. It was worth the extra reschedules on getting some good weather for that shoot.

Tomorrow.... or later today I guess as it is haha. I will be posting a whole post of just a bunch of photos from recent shoots. I will also post a new engagement book, and a few other slideshows!!

Stay tuned!

New Prom Shoot today!

So I had a really amazing shoot today with Ivori from Wyoming Seminary. We went through various spots in Wilkes Barre and Ashley and had a lot of fun, despite the fact that it was crazy windy and crazy cold!! What a trooper she was. Anyways, enjoy the pic above. There are a bunch more to come soon!!

Prom Dress SlideShow

Prom Fashion Shoot!!

So today I shot with two lovely ladies from Lake Lehman High School. We did a fashion shoot outside in some of their prom dresses. It was definitely a lot of fun. I am going to post some of the pictures probably later tonight.

Tonight I also got to shoot a prom fashion runway shoot at Wyoming Seminar School. That was fun as well. They had outfits from David's Bridal at the Lehigh Valley Mall.

Ok... look for another post pretty soon with some more shots. I have to size them for the web.

All New... New ... New... New!!

Hey everyone
Ok... I am re-dedicating myself to my blog... yes I am serious people. Every day you will hear from me, so I want you all to come on in as well and feel free to leave comments and join the conversation!

Now we have PACKAGES!!

So in the past for weddings we offered only the ala carte pricing system. I have just added 5 new wedding packages, that I am super excited about! So now you can book either ala carte or with a package. I have also added three new engagement shoot packages as well as:

- Bridal Shoots
- Dress Fitting Shoots
- And the after Wedding Shoot!!

I have also added officially to the product line up, the very cool EPIC Albums. These are great compliments to the Storybook albums, and I am really really excited about them. I am still in the search process of which company I will be using to print those, so that they really have a unique and awesome look to them.

Still some spots open for 08. I think I will be spending almost an entire month at both the Highlands in Dallas, and the Westmoreland Club in Wilkes Barre. Which is great because I really enjoy their venues.

So much stuff in the works!! Its going to be fun telling you all about them!

WOW, Soooo much going on!

Ok first of all.... I am so sorry its been so long since I posted. There has been so much going on its kindof crazy. I will attempt to cover some of it here.

Well my excuse for not writing more lately is because I fell on the lovely PA ice and almost broke my elbow. So I have been getting the full use of that back.

There are so many new things that I am going to be implimenting in the next month that it really is staggering... exciting, but it is lots. Whats great about it is that almost all of it are things that you can take advantage of if you are a current couple with your wedding booked or someone that is thinking of booking.

I am going to make a quick list of some of these things, and in the coming days I am going to try to announce them each in more detail.

You can go to the website now and already see the brand new website that I have spent so much time on.

Tampa Rocks!!

Ok ..... So let me just start by saying... the picture above is me with one of the greatest wedding photographers in the world. Yervant. His work just completely blows my mind.

For those of you that don't know, I have spent the last half week in Tampa Florida studying with some of the best wedding photographers in the world. I had a one on one mentoring session with The Bebbs, which was really amazing. For those of you that don't know the Bebbs, they were listed as one of the top ten wedding photographers in the world!! In total...on this trip, I met 7 of the top 10 photographers in the world. How can you beat that.





In addition, the surprise of my convention, and probably the most inspirational thing for me was my seminar with Jesh de Rox

Jesh is probably one of the most innovative photographers out there in the wedding industry, and has won countless national awards including image of the year. The real shocker is, he really didn't even talk about how he takes his photos. He just really talked about how to connect with your clients. Connecting with my clients is something that I really pride myself on. And this is really just going to take that to the next level. I really can't wait to get started. I think you will see an immediate result in some of the ways I do my shoots from what I learned with Jesh.

In addition to these wonderful people I got to meet and shoot with, I also participated in a live shoot with 12 different people, as well as ran my own shoot in the city at night with 7 photographers.

I can't wait to show you some of the images that we were able to get. I will have some up and running when I get back into town on Wednesday.

I will definitely be posting more about this great conference as well as some really HUGE news about new products, new offerings, and more!

Some of the things are so huge that I can't even talk about them yet, but they are going to blow your mind! You are very lucky to be a current wedding client that is booked with me right now, as you will immediately get to see some of these new things in action. If your not booked yet, get on board!!

I can't wait!

It's a whole new bag.
