I met up with Brigida and Josh at Pan Handler’s in Newport. Josh’s uncle owns the place. I was greeted warmly by them both. The weather, on the other hand, wasn’t so gracious.

They’re really a "getting to know your photographer" session more than anything. And because there aren’t 200 or so guests waiting…

If there’s one thing I struggle to define in my business, it’s a portrait session. What is a portrait session? How many people does it include? How long should it take? Where should it be shot? What time of day? So many questions…are there any answers? I don’t think there is an easy way to…

Sometimes you’re fortunate enough to meet the love of your life well before you know you will spend the rest of your life with that person. Other times, it’s many years before you meet the "one." Even still, there are some out there that may have that feeling that they will never find someone to…

Sometimes, I have a portrait sessionor a wedding when I really struggle with narrowing down images in order to select my favorites. Amy and Ben’s engagement session was one such occasion. So guess what that means? Yup, you get to see a whole bunch of their pictures! I’ve actually known Ben for over a…
