I had the most amazing workshop with Rick Ferro, a legend in wedding photography. He created the wedding department @ Disney World. An entire day spent with Rick was like a dream come true. We had models dressed in gorgeous gowns, hair and makeup beautifully done. I learned so much about lighting and posing. How hand placement properly done can really enhanced an image. It was such an inspirational day for me. Here are some of my favorite photos that I took.

I did my first shoot for a Father's Day gift of this cute girl and her mother. A nice surprise for Dad. It only takes a moment to make a memory! Book your session!
This past Sunday, I had such a fun shoot with this lovely young woman. I love her leather jacket. It really gave the photos a very hip look. The yellow mustard flowers season is almost over but I was able to get the fabulous image of Megan wearing a yellow scarf, making the image of her look like a painting. She picked that photo for her wallets photos, and the above image for her graduation party announcement cards. What I like about shooting at my favorite park are the great backdrops, bridge, stone walls, and wooden fence.
The question I get asked time and again is what to wear? During the consultation, I discover what my client wants to convey, casual, fun or a more formal look. The most important thing will your portrait stand the test of time.
Solids vs prints. Keep it a solid color. Prints take a way from the subject. I like this deep color on this girl because it enhances her skin tone & hair.
There is an art to un-posing, I love this image of this family because you can feel their love & affection for each other. I want the relationship to be the real story.
