Potomac Maryland Wedding Photography - Jacob and Jessica

Jessica and Jacob had their beautiful outdoor wedding at the Bolger Center in Potomac Maryland. They've got to be the craziest, funnest couple I've ever had the pleasure of working with! Jacob even decided to climb up on a tractor to hang off of it to kiss his new bride. They were literally up for any ideas that either Moshe or I had for them. These two know how to dance too, which was good because they had DJ Glyde (Victor Alicea) keeping the dance floor packed all night long! Check it out a taste from their special day:

 

What cool rings!

Jacob was making jokes about being a bullfighter all day with the red lining in his jacket

Another one of Jessica and Jacob's funny ideas!

Flash in the Fields

 

Yesterday Kimberly Brooke Green invited a couple of us up to hang out and shoot at one of her favorite locations near her studio in Westminster, MD. It was an amazing run-down barn and adjacent field with beautiful scenery everywhere you look. It has rained briefly earlier that day which made for gorgeous cloud cover for photography. Also Kim had her friend Bassin (who made for a great model) come out and hang with us for the afternoon! Check it out!


The "light tree" that Kim and I put together with an SB-80, two SB-900s, a SB-800 and four pocket wizards...all held on with Justin Clamps!

of COURSE I had to do a self-portrait!

Armin went to go pick up his car at the shop, so he missed this one...

Nikon's Angels!

Portrait Session in Great Falls National Park Virginia

Great Falls National Park is one of my favorite places to photograph. Beautiful lighting bouncing off the falls and through the treeline, diverse scenic backdrops, great rock formations. Here's a portrait session from last week that I did there.


David decided to goof around with my Lasotolite Trigrip Diffuser, he should have known I would post this one!

DC PhotogShootout June 2009

Yesterday I met up with about 50 other photographers from the Baltimore/DC/Richmond markets for a the FIRST DC PhotogShootout. We all had a ton of fun, and it was great seeing good friends again, as well as meeting new people. Of course, as I've done at the past couple get-togethers, I ran up a very high shutter count on my D3 and created a stop-animation of the day (with some iPhone 3GS video thrown in for good measure)! Enjoy!

Here's the link if you want to watch in full quality!

Reanna and Jeremy - Atlantis Hotel, Paradise Island - Bahama Destination Wedding

This past week I was in sunny (and humid) Paradise Island in the beautiful Bahamas with Armin and his wife Denise for Reanna and Jeremy's wedding. We arrived on Tuesday and scoped out the huge resort and then crashed in the hotel after a long day. Day two we got a chance to relax on the not-so lazy river and shoot down the famous slides in the Mayan Temple, before getting ready for their rehearsal that evening. Thursday was their special day, and we were so lucky to only get about 30 minutes of rain about an hour before the wedding. There was some great cloud cover that made for beautiful light and bearable temperatures for Reanna in her stunning custom made dress! Their reception was at the incredible Fathoms, which built around a huge tank filled with fish, manta ray and sharks! They'll be spending the next week relaxing in Paradise! Photos were taken for Armin DeFiesta Photography

...we had some "wedding crashers" hanging out in the water at the beach!

...never thought I'd see live fish that close to a wedding cake!

...these guys caught me by suprise while I was changing memory cards!

...and to top it all off - Reanna's "Top Model" pose!
