2013 HEARTS Graduation

Class of 2013, HEARTS Homeschool

I had the pleasure this year of photographing the 2013 HEARTS Homeschool Graduation Ceremony.  Just as last year, the graduates made this an very fun experience.  I've selected a few of the pictures to post here.  All the images can be viewed on my website, on the navigation bar on the left, click "event photos" and then the link for the 2013 HEARTS Graduation Ceremony.  Graduates will receive a DVD with all the images.  If you are not a graduate and would like a copy, you can also order a copy of the DVD from my website.

A special thanks to Lynne and Eric Watkiss for helping me photograph this special event.

Anxious for the graduation speaker to finish

Wedding Guest

I had the pleasure of attending the wedding of a friend this past weekend.   Unlike the wedding I shot as an assistant photographer in September, this time I was only a guest. Still, I couldn't resist taking my camera along to capture some images of the decor.  My compliments to the bride and her family for doing a beautiful job setting up for the wedding and reception.

The bride had placed disposable cameras at all the tables in the reception hall, along with a card of suggested shots to capture -- a great idea

2012 HEARTS Graduation

2012 HEARTS Graduating Class

I had the pleasure of photographing the graduation ceremony for the HEARTS homeschool group.  The graduates and their families made this an incredibly fun experience.  I've selected a few of the pictures for this post, and about a third of them for the video.  Graduates will receive a DVD with many more images.  If you are not a graduate and would like a copy, please contact me.

The background music on the video is a song called "Speechless" by Taylor Hart.

More images are visible on a slideshow on my webpage.  Click on "event photos" on the left after following the link.  A special thanks to Randy Ihara for helping me photograph the graduation.

Becca and Taylor Wedding

I had the pleasure this past weekend to be the assistant photographer to Angela Goodhart at the wedding of Becca and Taylor.  Becca and Taylor are a delightful couple to photograph, so full of energy and ideas.  They really made photographing the wedding an enjoyable event.  I focused on preparation shots of the groom and groomsmen while Angela focused on Becca and the Bridesmaids' preparations and the formal portraits after the ceremony.   Angela did a terrific job working with the couple and bringing out their youthful energy; I greatly enjoyed the opportunity to assist her.

Becca and Taylor

Their wedding was held at Rose River Farm near Syria Virginia. Rose River has absolutely gorgeous mountain scenery and Becca and Taylor were blessed with beautiful weather for the outdoor wedding.  I could not think of better location or a more enjoyable couple to photograph as my first assistant wedding assignment.

More pictures below.  Plus you can see a video containing both Angela's and my pictures on Angela's blog.
