A walk in the park {children's photographer in Camden Dover area}

Dewey, Mic and the kids...more beach action! [ Delaware photographer, family beach portraits ]

This was a rough one. The wind was really blowing which not only made it tough for the girls (hair issues), but sandblasted us for much of the time. On top of that, Dewey (the Dad) whined the whole time - worse than any kid. He's a friend, so I can say that. :)

family session in the park {family portraits in Camden-Wyoming, Delaware }

These images were the result of a session for the parent/grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary! Very impressive. I mean being married 50 years...but I think the images are impressive too. :)

Family Portraits at the park

Okay, not the whole family - we'll get mom and dad in there next time. This was my first time working with this family and I look forward to the next time. Great kids, totally into it - great images.

Jack, I know what it's like to have two older sisters - stay strong brother. :)

Nick at the Park

This is just another example of my self-diagnosed A.D.D.

I forgot to post these, but better late than never! These turned out too good not to show them. Nick had a plan for his time at the park (Brecknock Park), and it didn't include slowing down for portraits. If you follow my work at all, you know that doesn't bother me. I prefer to capture portraits without posing. With this type of session, I try to fall back and blend into the surroundings. No, I don't wear camouflage (hmm...maybe that's not a bad idea). 

These are a few favorites from a (fairly) recent session at the beach. It preceded the parent's 50th anniversary celebration. Fifty years - that's impressive! I had to shoot earlier in the day than I would have preferred, but we still got some great images.

Down on the farm

We originally planned to do these portraits in a local park, but Colleen (mom) decided on something much more meaningful. We shot these images on the farm just down the road from their house. It's the house where dad grew up - is that cool, or what?

Something else I'm very excited about, is a new feature available in the software I use to present my images. The way it works, you take a digital photo of the place or places that you are considering hanging your portraits and email them to me. Also, measure something within each image and provide that info too.
I can import the image in my presentation program, calibrate using the measurement you've provided, and then bring your favorite images in and show them displayed on your wall, scaled to their actual size. Look at the image at the bottom and you can see how it looks. In this case, I didn't add a frame because they chose a gallery wrap canvas.

Kelsey Part II -portraits at the beach

I previously posted some of my favorite portraits from Kelsey's senior session. She wanted some beach portraits and we got some great ones. Here are just a few...



 

Thomas at the beach

Just some of the results of some quality time with mom (Dawn) and son at the beach. I only had to walk 57 blocks to make it to the boardwalk and meet them...but it was totally worth it!
We started planning this just after Thomas' last session a year ago. This type of session is along the lines of a "lifestyle" session and among my favorite type of shoot...especially with "old" friends. :)

Be sure to check out the collage at the end.

I love this shot! Check out Thomas, checking out those bikini babes.
