I look forward to hearing from you!
ENJOY!

Thank you lord!

In the midst of my busy day today I got an email from a professional photographer, Bob Davis, telling me about his workshop. I went on to read his bio. He listed all his accomplishments and things he does, but ended with this. “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” -1 Peter 4:10. He went on the explain that everything he has, and everything he does is because of God.

It is so refreshing to hear how God has worked in other photographer's lives, especially famous photographers. I feel that God has given me this unbelievable gift and still, he needs to remind me daily to use my gift to further his kingdom. I should not take advantage of being "talented", I should thank the good lord and continue to use this talent not for my good, but for his. I am so glad I can write this all for the world to see. After all this is what Blog's are for!

This is why I love weddings. God created marriage. The joining of a man and a woman is so sacred. I know that things have changed these days with marriage, but bottom line is that two people love each other so much that they want to join to become one body. How can you not feel the love of God at a wedding.
Okay that is it for my rant! Back to making flush-mount albums! And I swear.... photos of my house will be on here as soon as some of the boxes are unpacked.

Finally some photos: Chetney Children

On Friday, Isaac and I had the priveledge to photograph Julie and Brian's children. Alex, Jake, and Claudia were great little models for us! Each time I do a portrait I get reminded on how much I love photographing children and families. December is our biggest month for family portraits so make sure you call ahead to make an appointment. Here are some highlights of the shoot:







Update on the house:
We have moved in (Kind of). Our office is now completly at our new house, it is just in boxes still. We will be doing a lot of moving and unpacking in the next couple days.

SORRY!

I apologize for not updating this blog at all. We have finished all of our 2007 weddings. It was bittersweet. We have been very busy painting and fixing up last minute stuff to move into our house. Time Warner decided to be awesome and disconnect all of our services this Sunday. So with that being said we are without internet to check our email and post our last wedding as well as we do not have phone. You can call our business number and leave a message. We will be periodically checking our voice mail from our cell phones.
Also if you have been having a hard time getting in touch with us it is because I fell while at our new house last Thursday and got a good concussion. I was pretty sick throughout the weekend and finally am feeling good enough to be making phone calls and doing some work. It has been one thing after another with me recently.
On a brighter note we are scheduled to be at the Dec 30th bridal show SyracuseWedding.com is hosting at Drivers Village. We will also be at the bridal show on Jan 13th in Skaneateles at The Lodge at Welch Allyn. Hope to see you there!
