Impress yourself, others will follow..


All I can really say about this image is BOOYAH! Its a once, maybe twice a year thing that I impress myself and this image of Senior representative Danny Ogg is one of those. We trekked out to one of those special spots no one knows about (You know the side of the road) for a sunset shot with him and his MG last week.

Where inspiration comes from…

Ashley and Brian got married this past Sunday at Polen Farm in Kettering. This was one of those weddings you start to look forward to when you first meet the Bride and Groom. Ashley and Brian put their own personal touch on everylittle thing and made it one of the most unique weddings we’ve had in a long time, which is always inspirational when it comes to creative images. On a personal note, I really want to send out a heartfelt thanks to Ashley and Brian, they were up for anything I wanted them to do and I didnt hear a peep from them or the wedding party about being outside all day in the heat! And a big thanks to their families, especially Ashley’s Mom Edith, She put in lots of work to make it all perfect and did a wonderful job!

Tara & Josh

Wedding season is definitely here, and while I really enjoyed last weekend off, It was great to get back to my passion, shooting weddings! Tara and Josh got married at Beavercreek Golf Club and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day – ok, maybe a bit less heat! Tara & Josh were troopers, along with the wedding party, when it came to shooting outside but we were all glad to hit the reception and the a/c.


The reception was a blast! They exited in the true spirit of July with the biggest sparklers I’ve ever seen – four footers! Best wishes to Tara & Josh….

Carroll Seniors everywhere!

Sometimes it seems all the high school seniors in the area have no idea there’s a great Senior Portrait Artist right down the street, accept for Carroll! Nearly 90% of our years seniors are Carroll students and truth is, we don’t mind a bit! We recently had ’09 grads Evan Pridmore and Mike Escobar in the studio for their sessions.

Evan plays baseball (see intimidating image above) and is a member of a seemingly ‘rockstar’ group known as flag patrol – Those red and blue paint covered spirit leaders at all the Carroll football games waving the flags.


Mike Escobar is that football team leading, does whatever it takes attitude, doesnt let it go to his head kind of guys. Carrolls quaterback, and I’m sure, man on campus that all the women want to sign their yearbook! We shot the images above at a shady backdoor laden alley that was just too cool, and of course, Carroll’s home field.

At the old ball game…

I had last weekend off from weddings, luck of the draw, or so I thought. After a few calls I got the guys together for a ballgame in Chicago, and dubbed it my best friends Bachelor party. But not any ball game, this was Sox vs Cubs, crosstown rivals! I won’t be able to be in his wedding, I have one to shoot that day for a client, so I thought I’d treat and it was worth every penny. These kind of weekends are the whole reason we all do what we do day in and day out. I needed to recharge my batteries, and just kick it with the homies. Luckily I was able to do that and be reminded of just how great friends can be, cause when it comes down to it they’re all you really need.
