Christine + Kevin

Christine and Kevin: To be married Sept. 27th of this year. I had a blast wondering the streets of Lancaster with you both this evening, and look forward to working with you both in September!

Abby + CJ - Engagement Photos

Yesterday evening Sarah and I met up with Abby and CJ to shoot their engagement photos. We walked around downtown Lancaster in the cold and wind, but it seemed (through the viewfinder at least) that they didn't notice the quickly dropping temperatures. I'm sure if you ask them they might tell a different story!

Thanks again you two, we had a blast! Happy Easter!

Home

After a ridiculous amount of travel, Sarah and I are back home at last! The experiences and lessons learned have greatly affected my attitude and ambition toward photography. It (photography) is something that has obviously been at the center of my life for some time, but I feel like I, and of course my photos, have been refocused (no pun intended). I can't wait to start wedding season in 2 weeks! Additionally, I have already begun mapping out a few ideas for some long-term personal photo projects. More on those to come!

Here are a few more photos from Norway. I spent a huge part of my time riding the above-ground trains, and did a series on them. Below are a few that hopefully communicate something of what I feel when riding in trains, cars, walking down the street... or just coasting/laboring through life. For me, there's a bit of introspection and disconnection that sometimes occurs. I think that's something everyone can relate to. Anyway, these speak to that.

Oslo Nightlife + Jetlag

The workshop just ended last night, with a big party to celebrate the opening of the exhibit. It was great seeing my photos printed on the wall. Sarah snapped some photos of me standing in front of them, but they're still on the camera. I'll try to post them later.

This week has been dominated by incredibly hard work, and very little sleep. One of the great things about Norway is the arctic light. When the sun is going up or going down, the atmosphere in incredibly clear. This, combined with the fact that Oslo is one of the cleanest cities I've ever been to (no pollution), makes for great photos (potentially!)

Anyway, jetlag has still been brutal. Here are a few pics that express my feelings on that a bit...

More photos to come!

Oslo Day and Night - Part 1

We finally arrived in Oslo two days ago. Jetlag has been brutal, especially considering the break-neck pace of jumping right into photos and the workshop. I've got to get back to work, but wanted to post a few pics from yesterday.

There are more forums and presentations tonight, followed by more roaming the streets and trains with the camera. More to come!

Sarah and I are going to be in Norway for a workshop the next week and a half (3/2 - 3/12). FEEL FREE TO EMAIL US, as we'll have access to our computers, but we won't be able to return or answer phone calls.
