Church Doors

Architecture has always intrigued me.   A couple weeks ago, I walked through Butler with my camera and the doorway design of several churches caught my inquisitive architectural eye.  As a wedding photographer, I couldn't help but wonder how many happy brides and grooms exited those doors on their way to their reception celebration and honeymoon.   And I wondered how many countless people arrived and departed each Sunday morning in their pursuit of God and His Son Jesus Christ.   These are not just ornate wooden doors...  I think they represent much more than that.

Matt's Senior Photos

Matt was a great guy and a good sport.  Senior pictures are probably the last thing a guy wants to do, but he hung in there and made my job extremely easy.  We both shared a common interest in our love for hockey.   When you live in Western Pennsylvania, you HAVE to be a hockey fan... you know, the 2009 Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins?!   Matt, good luck on your senior year and all your future endeavors!

Sarah's Senior Session

Sarah is the drum major in her high school's band.  I could tell she has a bright future ahead of her.  We took two different days to get her pictures taken.  Both days were not the best as far as weather was concerned, but we had a good time anyway (she said that our photo sessions weren't as bad as she had thought they'd be...  I was glad I was able to make her feel comfortable with this!).  The photos turned out great despite the cold, damp and rainy days.   Whenever there are things out of your control, such as the rain, you just improvise and work with what you have!  And so we got creative and made it work, and I was real happy with the results.

Emma and Leo

These two kids were so much fun!  Emma was just the little model.  I think she loved every minute of getting her picture taken... and Leo was hilarious... he had me laughing the whole time.   What a character he was.  We spent about an hour at Alameda Park on an early autumn afternoon.  They both had a good time with this photo session, and so did I!    Check these out!
