Punchy Portraits?

If you're looking to get some portraits done that are fun and maybe non-traditional (I do professional head shots too, that will be another post though... ;) you've come to the right place. Maybe you're an artist, or a musician, or just a mover and shaker about town, and maybe you'd like to have some pictures done that represent your creative side...

I took these shots for a special end of the year feature we did for BYT highlighting some of the great people we love in DC as a thank you for supporting BYT. These photos were then presented and displayed at the BYT All Access Newseum party on December 3, 2010 -- ON A JUMBOTRON. Hooray!

Inspiring Interiors...

I have been shooting interiors for a few years now, but until now I've never really devoted a post to my favorite interior shots.

Beautiful spaces are amongst my favorite things to shoot. They never fail to impress, especially if there's a room with a view.

Getting Married?

A lot of people are asking me about weddings these days... specifically whether I shoot them? If you're one of those people, rest assured, I do! I shoot A LOT of weddings in fact. My 2011 wedding calendar is booking up fast, so please let me know if you have a date you're interested in inquiring about as soon as possible.

I'm providing here a sample of some of my favorite wedding shots I took in 2010, if you click on any one of the images it will take you to a gallery filled with more shots from that respective wedding.
