Happy Anniversary Marie & Tim!

Today is the 1st anniversary for Marie and Tim Blatchley. A year ago today they were wed in the beautiful little chapel on the Plattsburgh Oval. We had a great time putting together their wedding video, a montage from the wedding can be viewed by clicking the links page of our website. You can also view a slide show of a wedding album that I designed with pictures from their wedding on our slideshows tab. Marie and Tim are two of the nicest people that I have ever met. I wish them many, many years of happiness and prosperity.

Our new arrival!

On Sunday May 20th my wife and I welcomed our second child, Melina into the world. She is a precious gift from God and she is another reminder to me of the beauty and innocence that can still be found in the world. Wedding days are also full of their own special kind of magic. One of the main reasons that I enjoy having the opportunity to capture images for a couple on their wedding day is that it allows me to be what I like to think of as the "Steward of Memories". I strive to compose each image so that it is a mini time capsule that allows the participant to vividly recall the details pertaining to that image. Here are two images of our new daughter Melina, that will allow me to always remember the circumstances surrounding the pictures.

Photo shoot for Daily Show intern

Last week I was contacted to do a photo shoot for a young man named Shawn Strack who graduated from SUNY Plattsburgh last week and interns at the Daily Show in NYC. We had a blast! Shawn was great to work with and I'm sure he has a bright future in the enterainment industry. Here are a few of my favorite images from our session.
