Snow Fun
The day after our snowstorm, Marc and I went out to enjoy our impromptu day off of work. We took Nadezda out for a drive through the neighborhood, and went for a walk, including playing on a local playground. As usual, I couldn’t enjoy myself without taking some photos of the day. Enjoy!

Sneak Peeks: Alexa & Clayton at Battle of the Hook
So, when I was at the Battle of the Hook back in October, I had two sets of couples sign up for portrait sessions. I really love doing these reenactor portraits, as it’s a really unusual take on the typical “engagement” or “couple” photos that you see floating around everywhere these days. They’re fun because they combine two people’s passion for ( Read more... ) -
The Germans are coming to New Oxford
A couple weeks ago I attended “The Liberation of New Oxford” in New Oxford, PA. For this WWII event, the small town dresses itself up as a wartime French village.

Sneak Peeks: Amalgamated Classic Clothing & Dry Goods

For my shoot this weekend, I decided to test out a “super wide” lens, so I’ve rented a Tokina 11-16mm F2.8 lens. It’s one I’ve looked at before, but I had never gotten to shoot with it. Rentals are actually a great way to test out a lens you’re thinking about buying, though the flip side is that it can lead to an awful lot of temptation!

Sully Plantation’s WWII Weekend
I originally thought that I wasn’t going to be able to attend the WWII living history event at Sully Plantation this past weekend, but a coworker of mine decided that he wanted more hours and offered to take my shift for me on Sunday, so that I could attend the event. Marc and I were only there for four hours, and we were actively participating ( Read more... ) -
Mini-Session with the 43rd Regiment
One of the things I’ve been trying to focus on more with my work is booking sessions with specific units. During Under The Redcoat, an event I attended a couple weeks ago, the 43rd Regiment of Foot had asked for some coverage of them at the event. Unfortunately, due to a few things out of my control, I was only able to shoot them for about half ( Read more... )
