Annie's a June bride (making Carl a June groom by default)! We're excited they chose the Apple team to shoot their wedding at the Grand Ballroom. They're planning quite the affair! Looking forward to being there to catch it all. These two just looked fantastic in black and white, so I couldn't help myself. I cut my teeth as a B/W shooter and I tend to see things in B/W. Enjoy!

Janny and Clint - E-Session
Janny and Clint were a joy to photograph at their engagement session and I think they'd tell you they had fun too! It was like having professional models at my disposal -- with no $1,200 per day agency fee!

Wow what a day!
Back to back sessions for a maternity shoot and senior portraiture. Kelly and his family showed up at Apple Studios ready to bang out a slammin portrait session for his Senior photos. Along with him came his sister Kirstie (Sp?) not girlfriend as I was embarrased to say I got it wrong the first time. They and Mom, Aunt and Grandma came out as we cranked out another great afternoon. It was high energy and got crazier as the day went on. Kelly is a graduate this year from Arlington High School and medal winning wrestler for recent tournament champions, The Arlington Colts He is a fun and great dude. As the day progressed I began to discover Kelly's potential to have a career in front of the camera. Thanks alot Kelly for chosing myself and Apple Studios to shoot you. We wish you the best in your future.

Frozen Man on a Motorcycle
Hey all, you may find it interesting to know that you can ride a motorcycle when it's 3 degrees out. The local motorcycle shop (Cruisin66 Cycles) is running its annual SnotSniffer challenge, awarding prizes to the rider with the picture showing him out riding on the coldest day in front of a thermometer. I decided to give it a try. Before my attempt, the leader "Brad" was at 4 degrees. Here’s my shot from 6:00 this morning. I was at Empire Bank at Valley Water Mill and Glenstone. I went out there, set up the tripod and shot it first and it was 4 degrees. It was so cold that I was happy to have tied and could race home! I went across the street to the gas station to unfreeze my fingers before I set out home. My fingers were numb from putting the equipment away. I told the clerk what I was up to -- I was talking proudly of my 4 degree ride. She pulled the cigarette from her wrinkled old mouth, looked at me, then looked out the front window at the bank sign and dryly said, “It’s 3 degrees now, hon.” She was right, the temperature dropped. So, I went over and repeated the excrutiatingly painful process. So there it is, 3 degrees, beating Brad and in the lead until some other brave soul posts his frozen face at http://www.cruisin66cycles.com/09sschallenge.htm.
