Wolters Family

I originally photographed the Wolters family about a year-and-a-half ago.  George contacted me again this past December to do another shoot with him and his two sons.  It isn't very often that their family is together, so this was a special time for George.  While I was there I also captured a few pictures of George and his wife.

Joseph and Stacey: Phoenix Wedding

Joseph and Stacey got married on a gorgeous October day in Phoenix, Arizona. My friend Michael Chansley passed the job along to me as he was booked for the day, which turned out to be a great blessing. I was driving back from a visit up to Colorado, and was able to make the convenient detour through Phoenix for their wedding.
Joseph and Stacey had a small ceremony at Hermosa Inn, a quaint little "Resort" in the heart of Phoenix, and a much larger reception the next day at the Foothills Golf Club. Both the ceremony and reception were absolutely beautiful and a lot of fun.












"Unity Sand" and "Unity Candles" are both very popular traditions for a lot of couples these days.  Joseph and Stacey, however, chose to do things a little different.  Being that they are both big wine connoisseurs, they decided to each pick their favorite wine to mix together into one new and distinct flavor.  How unique!


























Congratulations to you both!

I'm Married!

Anna and I got married here in Dongguan on January 29th, 2011.  We had a very small ceremony, four of us plus the minister, and it couldn't have been better.  We did however miss seeing all of our friends and family and as a result are planning a couple wedding parties for them when we come back to the States.

Anna's older sister was a huge help in a lot of ways, including taking all the candid pictures before and after the ceremony.  I have included a couple of the candids along with the formal portraits I did of us after the ceremony.

Chinese New Year!

Hello from the other side of the world!  Anna and I left for Dongguan, China, January 9th and officially arrived here late on the 10th.  We both flew into the Guangzhou airport about an hour apart and were greeted by two of Anna's good Chinese friends.


This past month has been spent getting settled, finding part time work and of course getting married  (pictures to follow soon).  As a result I have not been afforded much time to go out photographing.  All that being said though, I did not want to completely miss the Chinese New Year.  Here are several pictures from the past few weeks.

I hope to keep this a more up-to-date now that I am a bit more settled.  Be sure to check back often!
