Where did the summer go?

I can't believe it is almost Christmas.  I stayed pretty busy for 2017 and looking to repeat in 2018.  I hope everyone has a great and family time Christmas. 

Logan

Maybe its just me, but I've found it is harder to capture good images of a guy than a girl.  Logan was different.  He never stopped smiling and was easy to pose.  Logan made is senior portrait session very easy.

An hour with Morgan

I just loved spending my Sunday morning photographing Morgan.  A true natural in front of the camera.  A beautiful day decorated with fall colors just added to her senior picture.

Michelle & Marty picked the perfect venue for their wedding.  The farm setting was stunning, making my job as a photographer much easier.  The happy bride and groom have chosen to have their images uploaded to the web so their friends and family can view them.  To download an image just click on the image and underneath that image is a little down arrow, click that arrow.

Ben & Shelby's Engagement

A cute couple, a beautiful farm and a gorgeous fall day made my job as a photographer a lot easier.  This past Sunday, I was able to capture a few images of Ben & Shelby while walking around a local Indiana farm.

Walnut Hills High School Reunion

40 years ago Walnut Hills graduated the class of 1977.  On Saturday they met again for some celebration and I was lucky enough to be asked to come by and take a few pictures.  Reunion coordinators paid for the images to be available to the attendees.  <your pictures>.  To download an image just click on the image and under that image is a small down arrow.   The images will remain up for approximately 60 days. 

Thank you for letting me be part of your festivities.

Brittany & Jeremy

I shoot weddings almost every weekend but have kind of gotten away from posting pictures. Sorry about that.  Yesterday's outdoor wedding.  It was a good sign for the happy couple the weather was absolutely perfect.  Shot for Maxim Photo Studio.

Rodeo Anyone?

I'v never photographed a rodeo before so I thought I'd give it a shot.  Not one cowboy stayed on long enough to score a single point, so, in the end, everyone tied for both first and last place.  The bulls won.

ATP Tennis in Cincinnati

Every year the Western Southern Open takes place near Cincinnati and this year I was lucky enough to be part of the action.  I've watched these tennis stars on TV and when I got the opportunity to capture them during the tournament I took part.  I spent the week at the open and took a several hundred images.  It was hard deciding on my favorites but I finally whittled them down to a few that I can post.  

There is a lot going on during the open and if you're any degree of a tennis fan you need to attend next year.  I certainly expect to participate again.

Vacation at Last

My wife finally forced me on a vacation and wow, am I glad she did.  Nothing but sitting on the beach soaking in the beautiful view of the ocean from St. Kitts & Nevis.  If you are looking for a place to relax, look no further.

Marvin Lewis Community Fund

I spent the day at the Cincinnati Zoo shooting kids and family portraits for the Marvin Lewis Community Fund.  This was my 3rd year shooting this event and the best part is meeting all the kids and their families.  Marvin supplied the Bengal players and I supplied the camera gear.  I shot the event for McDaniel's Photography.    

Serena

Serena has entered her senior year at McAuley High School and I was lucky enough to be asked to take her senior pictures.  We started off at my favorite picture taking location, Eden Park and ended the afternoon at Spring Grove.  Serena's smile certainly made my job a lot easier.

This is Cool

I've been shooting a lot for Maxim Studios lately.  Did this one Saturday in Dayton, Ohio.  Great couple.

Getting Ready for Busy Wedding Season

At least one more trip to the zoo before my wedding season started.  I was never big into bird photography but because they can be a challenge to photograph I became a fan of the art.  This is a Blue-Grey Tanager.

Backyard Bird

Part of my backyard bird series of images.  This Blue Jay was hard to capture because it just wouldn't pose for me. :)  Check out the For Sale page for more information.
