Blog Posts & Other News

Well folks if you have been a regular visitor here you would ask yourself did Jason die? No I am still kickin' to the dismay of some... LOL! I had a hard drive failure that was catastrophic. It had absolutely destroyed turn around times. Luckily, most of what I lost was work that I had done, but it represented just over 100 hours of work.

I can tell you I am pretty good about backing up too, but I did loose a lot of data in the process. I really appreciate everyone who has been so patientence and understanding in the matter. Some folks weren't as understanding. I don't blame you. I am really sorry, but I am working as hard as I can to get you taken care of.

Since August 11th I have had weddings every weekend. With the hard drive failure it had slowed everything down to a crawl. If I have missed you in all of this let me know. I would for you to let me know. I want to get you taken care of.

I have neglected my blog and website in order to save time to get caught up. I am getting really close. For those of you who are still waiting for images to go up you should start to see those images go up this week. Loads of blog post to make as well! I am excited! There has been some wonderful images to share with all of you.

I hope you all are enjoying the Holiday season!

Cara and Nolan Tie the Knot

Okay, first off I had a wonderful time this weekend photographing the wedding of Cara and Nolan. Rhonda and Jackie thank you so much for taking such good care of me. For the person who was so kind to tie my shoe... Thank you! LOL!

The photos below are not from the wedding. They are from Cara's bridal session from a while back. They have been under lock and key until now. Normally, I put the photos in order of my faves, but I would love to hear what you all think. Tell me which one you love!

Cara made it very clear anything for a good photo during the bridal session. I would have to say she meant it to... Check it out....

Lauryn and Jared - Chattanooga, TN



I want to give a big Arg! to Lauryn and Jared! What can I say.... hmmmm.... I really had a good time with the wedding of these two! I experienced a lot of new things. Lets start with the sword fight between the lucky couple during the reception. There was also a belly dancing performance. Lauryn is a very talented belly dancer herself and gave an impressive demonstration of the art form. Then there was the hug fire across the street.

I mean wow! These two know how to make a statement. Seriously, they had an awesome wedding. I feel lucky to be part of their day. Here is a little preview for you all!

Enjoy!

It is a South Thing...




Wow! What a roller coaster week. Well week-and-a-half. It all started last Thursday as I traveled to Memphis for Apryl and Jason's Wedding. I had a wonderful time with my iPod and open road. It was a exciting trip. I knew that Apryl and Jason's wedding was the first for a new radical workflow. Here it is a week later and all of their images are online.



They are a wonderful couple and the stories they shared with me are just wonderful. It turns out Jason is a IU grad. He was going to school the same time I was working for daily newspapers up there. I know I met him when I lived up there, but I just can't remember exactly how. I can tell you the man makes the best ribs I have ever had.




Friday was a great day. It started with a bridal luncheon at the Majestic Grille. It was a wonderful place. Great food for sure. Then I was off to photograph the guys playing ball on the Memphis Redbirds ball field. I can say that was a first for me.


Every detail was planned. Between the wonderful taste of the bride and the wonderful job Amy Miller Wedding and Events did it was like a wedding right out of a magazine. It was just wonderful. How can you beat a wedding at sunset on the banks of the Mississippi River. Then at the reception they had an artist, Bradford Troxel creating a painting at the event as it was happening.

Thank you two for a wonderful time! Jason I need the info for your amazing ribs dude! Check out the slide show here....

Enjoy!
