Let's Bee Lovies...

I could write a tremendously long book about the internal struggle I face between choosing a career in wedding photography or fashion portraiture, or I can just show pictures of my wedding photography.
Truth: I love weddings, beautiful women that love to be photographed, beautiful things, and people that love the photos I take of them.

Larissa and Jason married this Saturday at Hunter Mountain Resort in Hunter, NY. Just outside of Albany and super beautiful.
I photographed as a second shooter for a wonderful NYC based photographer Michael Simon.
Mom, you would have looooooved this place. It is like Ruidoso on steroids.
This is why I love wedding photography...

For Veronica Hansen

Since I haven't been posting "new" photography anyway, take this. It sums up many thing about being a lady photographer. Veronica Hansen is one of my fabulous lady photographer friends making it in the big city. If you think being an artist is hard, try being a lady artist...

Daguerro deux

I went out and quickly came back only to photoshop again...
so many thing.

Daguerreian experiment

If I had access to huge vats of mercury, hot plates, and wood boxes I would probably be making daguerrotypes all day...

Handtinting

My love for handtinting. After a great photoshop lesson with David Strohl I tinted the second photo based on the first photo. The first is of my grandma (1955?) and the second is of my sister.
it's coming along...
