What happened to that cool almost fall-like weather we had last week? Whew! This fun family braved the 90 degree temps and did it with style. Thanks for a great session guys.

She’s gorgeous! Love the poses and backgrounds, great job! She must love them…
What a LOVELY girl, Elaine!! I love how you’ve made her eyes sparkle in each of these (ok, except the tattoo on her foot, lol).
Very nice! I’m digging your black chair too… do tell me where you got it!
Meredyth’s family were stationed with us in Valdosta, Ga. Her parents now live outside of DC and our families got together last weekend for the first time in several years. I had not seen Meredyth since she was in middle school! She has grown up quite a bit and is a beautiful young lady. She is currently attending JMU majoring in media art. She has an interest in photography and was so much fun to work with. This is just a sample of the pictures we took in downtown Frederick.

Great Images! She has a great smile.
A video that is the collaborative effort of several of TJHS’s recent talented class of 2010, most of whom I have had the pleasure to photograph this year: Ben Meyers, Sam Hillman, Alex Nearey and my daughter who is in the background. This a group of kids who have been great friends for many years and it is great to see them work together on a project before they all leave for college and head their separate ways and for bright futures.

Wow, that’s very cool!
Nice to see a well put together ‘professional’ video on YouTube. These are far and few between. Video and Video editing… I don’t have the $$$ or the time to go there. I will have to stick with stills for now.
Tell Laura and company ‘Great Job’ for me.
Very talented kids indeed! Beautiful girl, too!
Sarah is a beautiful young soon-to-be mother who is due with her first child at the end of August. I can’t wait to photograph her daughter when she arrives. Sarah has the most gorgeous coloring and her ink just added to the fun of this session. I wish her a continued happy and healthy pregnancy.

G. is a senior at Gov Thomas Johnson HS and she has been riding for several years. Sadeek is a sweetheart and we had a lot of fun with him. I could tell that he and G. have a special bond although he was more interested in eating clover than he was getting his picture taken (smart horse!).

I spent a fun evening capturing the relationship between these two sisters right here in my own neighborhood. They are both good- natured, fun girls who you can tell care for each other. Thank you H. and G. and thanks to their mother too who acted as my photo assistant.

beautiful images – they look like they have a great relationship
L. is a senior at Gov Thomas Johnson High School. She has been taking piano lessons since she was in the first grade and plays for the sheer joy of it. The faster the tempo the happier she is! She also loves to color and wear bright mismatched socks. She plans to attend college in the fall and major in Occupational Therapy.
