I’m Now Offering Leather Craftsmen Albums!
Posted on March 8, 2010
You only get married once (well, hopefully any way) …
So you’ve made the choice to invest a lot of money in your wedding pictures and now you’re looking for a beautiful way to showcase them?
There is a reason why Leather Craftsmen is king of the hill when it comes to your wedding album. Their quality, construction and “wow” factor are simply unmatched in my experience. In short, their attention to the many little details is what separates this lab from all the competition. I am thrilled to now offer Leather Craftsmen products! I do encourage you to consider them if you are in the market for a fantastic album!
I will also continue to offer Miller’s Lab – makers of very fine albums and prints themselves – at a more modest price point as well. It is always my utmost goal that my brides and grooms be very happy with – and proud of – the services and products they receive from me! Thus I believe that offering both LC and Miller’s is the best way to meet a wide variety of needs and wants. Please contact me if you have any questions or are interested!
And now, an image from Brooke and Matt’s wedding this past Saturday – more to come soon!

Shari and Daniel – Just For the Fun of It
Posted on March 1, 2010
Ack, I had forgotten about these pictures for a little while. While in Houston to shoot Michelle and Richard’s wedding, I also had the privilege of taking a few pics of my sister Shari and her boyfriend Daniel, whom I had just met for the first time the night before (Daniel, not my sister.) What a cool guy! They patiently put up with my lighting gaffes, which eventually yielded this fun shot:

Michelle and Richard : Newlyweds!
Posted on February 16, 2010
It’s always an honor when a couple asks me to photograph their wedding. Always. 
However, in the case of Michelle and Richard’s Houston, TX wedding, the honor was that much more special.
Michelle was a youth pastor with our church growing up. She was kind, genuine and I’m not sure I’ve ever met a person who demonstrated so much compassion, empathy and sincere interest in the lives of others. She since had moved back to Houston, where our paths had crossed only a few times, and it was such a surprise to hear from her a few months ago. She opened her email to me with “stranger things have happened” and asked if I would be interested in and available to photograph her upcoming wedding. Wow.
Maybe it seemed like a longshot then, but needless to say, I was available and very excited to make the trip. Of course, having known Michelle well a long time ago, I couldn’t help but wonder what her fiance, Richard, was like. I met him a few hours before the ceremony, and within about 60 seconds I could not have imagined or hoped for a nicer, more genuine guy. Finally, Michelle’s daughter Hannah, who I had last seen over five years ago. You three know it already, but I think you’re very blessed 
Michelle and Richard chose the intimate Shirley Acres as their venue and celebrated their love and marriage with friends and family. Again, I use the word genuine, but I could not have imagined a more sincere, easygoing and deeply spiritual group.
So having introduced this happy couple and Hannah, here are a few of my favorite photos from the day:
I had to throw in a pic of Michelle and my sister Shari, to the right! 
Something else I really enjoyed was shooting with my dad , from whom I doubtless inherited any photographic genes or talent I may possess! He helped me test the lighting for this last shot, which is one of my new favorites:
Congratulations and a lifetime of love to you both!
Order these or choose from hundreds of other prints of Michelle and Richard’s wedding celebration!

Ah, Winter
Posted on February 4, 2010
Long time no blogging!
I hail from Texas, so honestly it was a fun time to go Mario Kart-style power sliding around town when we had our first snowfall. (I exaggerate.)
That was weeks ago and winter has since worn out its welcome. I like it cold, but we have had some bitter, slap-you-in-the-face kind of cold days. I fell hard on our driveway one icy morning and was fortunate to have damaged nothing but my pride. But I am told it will be better soon.
Another thing that sucks about winter – not many pictures! My wife and I have been so busy lately – a good busy, a “lots of time with friends and family” busy, but also with a lot of work and other junk we’d rather not deal with, except we need to eat. And sleep, with a roof over our heads
Enough rambling?
I have driven by this old wheel for months and wanted to take a picture of it. Something about old textures seems to catch my eye. Across the street, an old wooden fence as well.
Super stoked about a extra-special wedding coming to this blog soon, and then, as spring begins to replace the cold, gray winter, a schedule of weddings for a lot of couples that I am blessed, honored, and excited to be photographing! Take care and check back soon!

Heidi, Danny and Baby Cooper
Posted on January 7, 2010
Danny, Heidi and I go waaay back and it is always great to get together with them and now, their newest family member – their newborn son Cooper!
Danny and I first met in college and though they now live in Sugar Land, TX, as coincidence would have it, Danny grew up not far from Dayton. So this past Christmas, Toni and I got to spend an afternoon with them and enjoy a lunch of chicken enchiladas and catching up. Aaand we took some pics – these are a few of my favorites!
