Twins…

In keeping with the “infant marathon” theme, I had the pleasure of photographing newborn twins this week. Life is good…

Infant photography marathon…

Seems like infant photography sessions come in waves at times. Rebecca and I recently had an opportunity to photograph triplet boys, a baby girl and a toddler…

Alice and Derek

Posted in Photography on January 11, 2010 by Jim Strathearn

We had the pleasure of photographing Alice and Derek’s wedding a week ago. Alice was one of our granddaughter Emma’s nurses and we were very happy to be able to do this for her. (All the folks up at the Hopkins NICU are special…) Anyway, as cold and blustery as it was, Alice had her heart set on outdoor formal pics so that’s what we did…

Kate

We had the pleasure of photographing Kate again recently. As in the past, it was a fun session!

Alice Pre-Bridal Session

Posted in Photography on January 4, 2010 by Jim Strathearn

We had the pleasure of photographing Alice’s pre-bridal session just a few days before her wedding. As expected, Alice looked stunning in her wedding gown and she was ready to pose for us as soon as we arrived. Pre-bridal sessions are so important; they give the bride a chance to try out all her clothing, hair and jewelry choices before her wedding day, thus insuring that everything will be just right for the big day.

Merry Christmas!

We spent Christmas at our daughter’s house and we got to experience Emma’s first Christmas. What a blessing… I know this is a few days late but we just got back into town.

I hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours!

At some point, everything ends up in her mouth… ;-)

I am just too cool…

Julie and Nate

Julie and Nate were scheduled to be married this past Saturday, 12/19/09. Then came the Blizzard of ‘09! As you might imagine, the wedding was pushed back a day, which ended up being a very hard to make, but very good call. This was our first wedding at the Waverly Mansion and it was quite a venue. If authentic/rustic is what you’re looking for, the Waverly Mansion is a place to consider.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow…

… and snow, and snow, and snow…

We got around 2′ or so of snow yesterday! As much as I enjoy a good snow, this was nuts! Worst part is that we had a wedding scheduled the same day. Fortunately it was able to be pushed back a day so we’ll be making the trek down there today. It is at the beautiful Waverly Mansion and we’re excited about the potential for some great photos.

Stay warm!

‘Tis the season…

I love this time of year. Between the first snow, the crisp air and the clear skies, I think early winter is just the best. And it makes a good time for holiday photos as well. We were a little late this year getting the holiday session in but it’s in! It’s so gratifying to watch the kids we photograph grow up. It seems like overnight they are changing from infants to little girls and boys. We feel honored to be able to document their growing up and maturing…

The perfect storm…

Sometimes when things happen, it’s just “OK”. Other times it is pretty good. But when things come together just right, great things can, and often do, happen. Recently I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Rebecca Gardner on child/infant photography. Rebecca brings a fresh, contemporary look to our galleries and it has been quite exciting to watch how things are developing.

Working with Rebecca has been more then a pleasure and I am looking forward to watching how our photography evolves from here.

A few pics from our most recent mom/child session:
