Saturday, October 10, 2009 at 10:00AM Exactly one year ago today the weather was a LOT different than today. Bryce and Brandie braved the cold weather and blowing snow and still chose to have their ceremony...outdoors!
We had a great time and I am thankful to have been there as part of their special day.
Happy Anniversary you two!
Best Wishes,
Michael
Friday, October 9, 2009 at 5:00PM Hello Open Mike Night World!
Tonight I need a favor from you. I am doing some film testing over the next several weeks and I need some volunteers to help me out. I am looking for anyone interested in kid's portraits, senior portraits, engagement portraits, or family portraits. Oh yes, your session is 100% free. :-)
If you are interested (your session must be in the local Tahoe/Reno area) please send me an email with these bits of information:
1. Your names of course
2. What type of session you are interested in
3. A recent image of whoever is going to be in the session
That's it! I look forward to hearing from you!
Best Wishes,
Michael
Thursday, October 8, 2009 at 5:00PM Happy Thursday Everyone!
I had the pleasure of photographing David & Jessica's engagement session a couple of weeks ago, and we were blessed with an absolutely beautiful evening together.
There's something extra special about Lake Tahoe in the fall. Maybe it's because after Labor Day the crowds and traffic all thin out! Whatever it is, there was something in the air and David and Jessica had it.
They are so cute together...believe me!
I love that warm sunset light
Having a beach at Lake Tahoe to yourself...priceless
Love it - smiles and laughter!
One of my favorites!
There's more images coming from their wedding very soon, but in the mean time, I hope you enjoy these!
Best Wishes,
Michael
Wednesday, October 7, 2009 at 4:30PM Earlier this summer I received an inquiry from Lindsey who was interested in booking an engagement session for her sister as a gift. A couple of emails and a phone call later, Marc & Lauren's engagement session was scheduled. Now that's a cool sister! :-)
They wanted to wait until fall for their session, so just a couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Marc and Lauren and photographing them at beautiful Truckee, California. They had already scouted out a few locations but apologized that it was all they had time for. Are you kidding me? Just check out these images - they did an incredible job!
Love it
Maybe it's just me, but this is one of my all time favorites!
I really love the feel of this image
Such a great couple!
Two more favorites...
Yup, this was all they had time for...AMAZING!
Marc & Lauren thanks for a great evening together - you have more wonderful images coming very soon!
Best Wishes,
Michael
Tuesday, October 6, 2009 at 5:00PM I am so blessed to be a photographer. I have some of the most amazing clients, and get to do what I love each and every day! Then there are certain clients that come along, and when you work with them, it confirms your love even more. That is what this wedding was like.
Four years ago this month I photographed Omar and Irene's amazing two-day wedding in Virginia. Even though their families are some of the most well respected, educated, and accomplish people you will meet, they make you feel like you are their guest of honor. I was humbled to serve their family then, and humbled to serve their family just a few weeks ago for Bryan & Rabiya's wedding (Omar's sister).
These images are just a small taste of their beautiful gallery that will be ready soon...I hope you enjoy!
Christian Louboutin...need I say more?!
A gift from Rabiya's parents
I loved all the colors!
Rabiya looking beautiful
Bryan looking handsome
Seeing each other for the first time!
I LOVE the image on the right
Another favorite
How is this for an awesome place to cut your cake?
I really love this last image - first dance
Bryan and Rabiya - thank you for choosing and trusting me to celebrate with your family. It was a privilege to serve you and see you all again!
Best Wishes,
Michael
