On Monday we had the opportunity to get to know Jennifer and Wade's and shoot their engagement photo's while they while they were at Clearwater Beach for vacation. We are shooting their destination wedding in November and looking forward to it.

Yesterday we kicked off our 2008 wedding season in style with Lindley and Jason at the Vinoy Hotel and Resort.

The guys started the day with "tennis war's" aka dodge ball with tennis balls (I even took a ball to the arm trying to get a shot), while the ladies had a nice luncheon before a beautiful ceremony at First United Methodist in downtown St. Petersburg.

As I mentioned last week we are slowly phasing in a number of upgrades to our offerings. As most of you know we always post a few pictures on the blog a day or so after wedding, well now instead of just a few select wedding photos you will see a full slideshow with 40-50 of my favorite images. On top of that when time permits (like it did last night) as a bonus we will also crank up a quick version of the slideshow on our new MacBook Pro during the reception. Be sure to let me know what you think of the show in the comments section.

Friends and Family be sure to drop me a note with the Bride and Groom's lastname as the subject and I will be sure to let you know when the rest of the pictures are available.

Thats Right!!! I just got back from spending a couple of days at the Professional Photographer's of America annual conference Imaging USA. What an experience.

I had the opportunity to have one-on-one conversations with some of the industries biggest names, attend workshops taught by the photographers to the stars, and meet with all of our existing vendors and some potential new ones.

On the heels of the conference I have a lot of big idea's and big changes planned for 2008, not to mention a ton of inspiration.

Over the next couple of weeks look for me to making a number of big announcements about just about every aspect of what we do. We are going to be adding new album's, enhancing our product and service offerings, modifying our packages, and streaming our web interfaces to make sure you have a the best possible experience working with us.

In every scenario I mentioned we are upgrading things to even better products, so while this will mean great new choices for our new customers, it will also mean some free upgrades, add-on's and fun surprises for our existing customers as well.

So stay tuned as we begin roll things out in the next few weeks...

On New Year's Day we were finally able to shoot Elizabeth and Ryan's engagement photo session at Fort Desoto Park after getting totally fogged out a few day's earlier. New Years Day was no weather gem either (winds blowing 25 mph + of the water) but we made it work and had a great time.

Here a few sneak peeks from the shoot...

Happy New Year!!!

2007 was a great year for us and I couldn’t be more excited about going into 2008. We shot some awesome weddings, some really cool relaxed and dramatic portraits, and a few kick butt fine art shots.

2007 also marked a year of growth and that allowed us to completely replace or upgrade every piece of equipment in are digital arsenal. So while a good photograph still comes down to skill and eye first and foremost, there is still a reason that top of the line pro gear exists and that is so we can be ready to shoot when the moment happens no matter where it happens.

2007 also marked our first year with a packed wedding calendar (as most of you know we don’t want to just be a wedding photography mill and therefore usually like to shoot one wedding a month) and 2008 looks to be shaping up nicely as well.

On a personal note this last year has been awesome as my beautiful wife and I have watch our daughter Olivia blossom into the cutest little girl on the planet, she is so smart and did I mention pretty darn cute.

I hope you all had a great 2007 as well and wish congrats to all of you that may have gotten engaged over the holidays.

For 2008 I have the typical resolutions about exercise and eating right, but photography wise I am resolving to put a renewed emphasis on my fine art and nature work. That is where I started and what shaped the style I use in all of my other photography, but in the hustle and bustle of life it seems that I find less and less time just to shoot for the sake of making art.

Enjoy a few of my favorite wedding moments this last year in this slideshow…
