Twins

Some friends of ours just returned home from the hospital with their twin boy and girl bundles. These guys were really little. It doesn't get much cuter than this.

Congrats again you two (er "four")!

Another Storm

This season has shaped up pretty well for storms. It's all calm and hot out right now, but last week we had a lot of moisture and that means fun at night. Last week my wife and I were about to goto bed and noticed what looked like emergency vehicle lights strobing against the neighbors house behind us. We went around front to see what was happening and it was lightning! Like a flash every second or so. It was really pretty intense and happening right over the house.

I grabbed the gear and went out for an hour or so. These awesome pictures were shot only a block or so away from the house. Easy hunting. There are some more really great ones from this set that aren't edited out yet - maybe I'll post more later this week.

Gina & Jay - Wedding



Another very enjoyable event. Over the past year we've had a chance to cover quite a few of the "smaller" weddings and I really enjoy these. Such an easy going day. Super cool couple. "Thanks guys!"

Gina and Jay came down from Seattle for their desert wedding at the Four Seasons Resort here in Scottsdale. I've got to say the resort lives up to expectations when it comes to service. My assistant and I actually got our own room, marked with a placard "Photographer Meal". lol. The room included a fully stocked bar with all the goodies we could have needed. We were very much amused at this.

Gina & Jay - it was great spending the day with you. Hopefully we'll get up to Seattle sometime soon. It's number one on my list of places to visit for destination weddings.

Note for those of you still planning your weddings: It's always a good idea to bring along an 'extra groom' just in case the something happens to the primary groom (hey, you never know, and you're getting married today one way or the other - right?). Luckily we didn't need to use the extra for this wedding so we kept him propped in the corner - but he was still there 'just in case'. Be sure to also order an extra corsage for him.
