Being a photographer is incredibly rewarding. Catching the emotion on a father's face as he sees his little girl on her wedding day. Seeing a child's amazement when they experience something for the first time. Knowing I've gotten the picture that captures the defining moment of the day is priceless. Our clients trust us to capture the moments of one of the most important days in their lives, and we love being an integral part of it. We love to have fun and enhance our clients day...to experience it with them and to make it better for them. We're more than just another vendor, we're an advocate for them. Many of our clients end up becoming friends. We've shared the joy of their wedding, and in many cases we can share in the joy of their first child, helping them capture those joyous moments in their families' history. We thank our clients for allowing us to be a part of their lives. We look forward to capturing many more of those "moments of joy" that brings tears to our clients eyes and a sense of satisfaction to us that a passion brings. The inherent unpredictibility is exciting for me. The exciting products we're able to offer our clients is astounding. It allows us to see everything around us. Without light, we'd see nothing. The magic of seeing an image slowly emerge from a piece of paper immersed in a chemical bath will never cease to amaze me. Granted, the days of the darkroom are pretty much a thing of the past. It's developed from a hobby to a passion. Ever since my parents gave me a Kodak brownie camera, the magic of photography has enthralled me.

What a lovely couple!  Shawn is a fireman for the Fox River Grove Fire Department, and the FD rolled out their 1923 Ford fire truck for photos.  Sarah and Shawn even rode on the back of the truck from the church to downtown Cary for pictures! We were fortunate to have a bright, sunny late-summer...

Living under our deck

There were four kittens and their mama living under our deck earlier this summer!  Very skittish.  The gray one was braver than the others, so she briefly posed for a portrait.  We were going to take them to an animal shelter so they could be cared for and neutered, but shortly afterwards the family moved...

Jeanne and Scott

Picture a sunny, bright and warm Saturday afternoon.  Champagne and cocktails all ‘round.  Friends and family.  Beautiful lakeside setting.  Delicious nibbles, hors d’oeuvres and dinner.  A fantastic wedding-planner ensuring everything ran smoothly.  A rocking band playing well into the night.  More cocktails.  Wedding cake and dessert.  What could be better?  Not much. This was one...

Cynthia and Brian

We had a great time at Cynthia and Brian’s wedding and were really pleased with the day.  We’ve known them for about two years now, since they came to the studio for their first consultation, and we’ve become good friends.  We had a fun Engagement photo session in the city last year, and we’ve really...
