Friday Foto: new pix 4 u



Good morning folks! It's been a whirlwind of a couple weeks. I shot another wedding last weekend which was great and the new Golden Isles Magazine is hitting the shelves today. I'm very excited about this issue particularly. I shot a lot for this issue; the cover, several spreads and as always, my photo essay. This issue's essay is a compilation of photographs from my travels to Italy, both in 2001 and in 2oo8. I've always wanted to publish these photos and am very excited about it. 

The first photo posted here is featured in the Magazine. I wanted to post it here because I really liked it. I was assigned to shoot some photos of the "First Friday" event in downtown Brunswick. It's on the first Friday of every month, and shops stay open late encouraging folks to come on out. I really wanted to capture the nightlife feel and still make it distinctly downtown Brunswick. I really like the shot. 

The second photo is from the past wedding I shot. After the ceremony the bride and groom and I walked out to the beach to get a couple of beach shots. It's always tricky to get good shots on the beach during the middle of the day, and this was about 11:30 which is typically a horrible time to shoot because of the light. The shots came out great, but I really like this one the best. What do yall think?

So, not much planned this weekend. Have some honey-dos that I'm putting off till Sunday so I can go boating tomorrow. I'm putting in at 8 am and will be out all day. I'm so excited. Bringing a grill and brats... there really isn't anything better.

Everything else is going well. Business is booming and that is wonderful, we are very fortunate.

Anyway, yall have a great weekend. I sure will.
