Carl & Moriah's Wedding


I am so happy for my brother and his beautiful wife!  Elizabeth was so excited to be the flower girl and wear her special "wedding dress"!  This is one of the best weddings that I have ever been to, let alone photographed!  There is something about simple weddings that really bring friends and family together and bring out the true meaning of a wedding: the celebration of love and family!

I love you so much Carl & Moriah!  I wish you all the happiness and love in the world!

Loving Lightning!

Not sure why, but I am really getting into photographing lightning all of a sudden!  I think it's the fact that it's not as easy as it looks, plus all kinds of factors that have to present and *just right* to get a stellar image.  And don't get me wrong, it gets *very* frustrating when you don't get all those factors when you are right there and ready with your camera!  In the fashion that is Dee, I'm usually a day late & a dollar short, and it's no exception when it comes to trying to photograph lightning!  It never fails that when the conditions are just right for great shots, I don't have my camera or unable to get to an open landscape. 

This is all still just a trial and error to get the right camera settings, predict strike areas, and timing to get the bolts.  I have to admit, that I love the process!  It's like sitting on pins & needles for the seemingly endless seconds that the shutter is open and seeing strikes, then waiting for the preview to come up to see what I captured!

I caught the tale end of this storm, but was able to get a few images worth posting!
