I was randomly searching on eBay for film cameras — specifically the Contax 645. I about choked when I saw the price and thought for a minute that I would never have the opportunity to shoot film. I wised up and realized that, just like in digital photography, there obviously had to be more than just one […]
I think it goes without saying that I will never turn down an opportunity to visit JMU. I attended undergrad there, but ended up graduating in three years so I have always felt like I didn’t get enough time in this special place. I remember the first time I visited the campus knowing this is […]
I had a stunning black-tie wedding in Baltimore all ready to go for the blog today… but that is being postponed until Tuesday because I had SO much fun at the NOVA Shoot & Share Holiday Party last night that I wanted to get our pictures up immediately!

A few months back, you may remember that I posted about an awesome wedding photography workshop, hosted by Katie Nesbitt Photography, that I attended in Charlottesville, VA. The workshop was absolutely amazing (if you’re interested, you can read about that more here) all around, but I have to say, one of the best parts was […]
