Erin & Don woke up early one morning last week so we could catch some pretty light as the sun was rising over the capitol. Usually, I try my best to let the sun rise before I do. But since this early wake up call meant hanging out with these guys—it was worthwhile. Positively classy and simultaneously unpretentious, Erin and Don have quickly become friends and I'm really really looking forward to photographing their wedding in April. We had a fun time capturing some silly moments and pretending to be serious for some of them. And many thanks to Erin's sister Maria for wrangling Phebe (their dog) and helping to convince her to sit still for a few seconds!

Ashley is a great friend, a gifted writer and a tireless worker with numerous volunteer and charitable causes including serving the veterans at Walter Reed and fundraising for the Alzheimer’s Association. I had a blast hanging out in Annapolis for the afternoon with her and catching up on the exciting things she has going on. In November she will be playing in a Blondes vs. Brunettes flag football game to benefit the Alzheimer's Association and could use some help in meeting her fundraising goals. If you'd like to donate a few dollars to the cause and attend the game check out this LINK!

WEDDING ALBUM SAMPLE

A few days ago a particularly exciting package arrived in the mail. It was my new sample wedding album! And it is beautiful! Last year, when I first started thinking about offering albums as a part of my photography business, I did A LOT of research looking into the highest quality and best value albums out there. Finao Albums impressed me with both their matted albums and their flush mounted albums in the quality of materials used, the options to customize, and the price points relative to other album companies. Because of the high quality, durability and "wow" factor necessary for wedding albums, they are a significant investment for any couple planning a wedding. I think it is important for couples to be able to see the quality of the photos and to feel the leathers on the cover and to feel the weight of the book before deciding that an album is a worthwhile investment and something that will be treasured long after the wedding is over. So, I'm excited to have this sample to bring with me when I meet with clients now!

The albums come in every color and texture imaginable and range in size from 8 x 8 inches to 11 x 14 inches. The photos for this particular album style can run across two pages seamlessly, allowing HUGE photos to be displayed. Hopefully, these photos give you an idea of how awesome this album is.

The weather on this day = HOT. It reached something like 105 degrees. Heather & Ryan = RIDICULOUSLY SMOKING HOT. Like 10,000 degrees Kelvin. These are just a few of them. AND THEY GET BETTER. But you will have to wait a day or two to see more. Keep checking back...
