The photographer was constantly telling everyone to stop and pose, where to stand, even how to feel. We just wanted to enjoy the day and be ourselves. It got to the point where my mom would leave every time the photographer walked in the room. It was disappointing because they were interested in their style, but they weren't interested in our family.
To us, wedding photography is more than a portfolio. Aside from your spouse-to-be, your photographer will be with you more than any other person on your wedding day. Crazy, huh? Of all of the awards, accolades and credentials that we have achieved over the past decade of shooting weddings, we take the most pride in being the easiest photographers that you can possibly work with.
With more than 20 years of photography experience, including the most high profile sporting events (Super Bowls, Stanley Cup Finals, The Kentucky Derby and even Wrestlemania!) Presidential elections, high profile portrait assignments, twelve years of high end wedding photojournalism, and every assignment you might think of, I've shot it all.

Services
Freelancers are the silent and forgotten masses of the work force.
While many are in search of traditional employment, the freelancers of the world want to make their own way.
Many aren't out to build a crazy entrepreneurial business with tons of employees.
They want to do work that they love without a boss telling them what to do.
They want to make more money.
They want to have control of their schedule.
Usually, they are employed with a side business that's been their dream to build.
They want a better life away from a 9-5 job.

A- Kicking and screaming, sort of.
Elizabeth and I avoided shooting weddings forever.
Being photojournalists, we had no interest in shooting weddings.
For real.
We were documented real world events, big time sports, human interest stories and world leaders.
Weddings seemed hokey.
Pictures of wedding rings on cupcakes.
Bridal parties jumping in unison on a bridge.
Endless posing.
Crazy mother-in-laws.
No way, Jose.
A- We were having a baby!
And we quickly realized that the newspaper world, with it's crazy hours and low pay, was going to present a giant problem.

Even back in high school, it was huge interest of mine.
But it took off in 1996 when I was accepted to Ohio University's School of Visual Journalism.
I knew at that point that this was going to be my career path.
I did various photojournalism internships, including a memorable time at the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
I learned so much from the talented photographers on that staff.
A- After those internships, I wanted to become a staff photographer for a newspaper.
It was such an exciting field at that time.

A- It's looking like I made a good choice.
It's more like 18 or 19 years though, because I didn't make a dime from photography for those first few years!
Q- You have been a photographer for 21 years, but have been shooting weddings for 10 years.
What did you shoot before weddings?
A- My career has always been based in photojournalism, and still is.
I worked for newspapers in New York, Michigan and Indiana and have freelanced for wire services ranging from the Associated Press, Getty Images, European Pressphoto Agency and many other magazines and publications.

Elizabeth & Vincent, In one word: AMAZING!
Adam and I are so happy with our wedding photographs!
Our day was perfect!
The day went by so fast and there were so many people at the wedding that we didn't get to see everyone and everything that day.
You two were our eyes for the day and you captured EVERY moment.
You have the shot where I looked at my dad as we started walking down the aisle and then I started crying.
You got the shot when Adam said "I do" instead of "We will" and the entire wedding party broke out in laughter!
