Our neighborhood dog party
The last day our pool is open, all neighborhood dogs are allowed into the gates for a party unlike any other summer festivity. Here are a few photographs of our dog Hampton and a few of his friends.
Hampton’s first swim.
A little panic
My wife’s hand – just in case. :)
I think someone wants both toys.
Lickin’ off a little excess……

This kid has some “ups.”
cannonball!!!!
Baxter’s first (and only) swim. :)
one moment – with a dress and a dog
I was photographing a tighter detail shot of Monica’s dress while she was walking……out of the corner of my eye, I saw our furry friend pop into the frame, depressed the shutter release, and this image was the result.
one moment – simplicity
This photograph is one of a few I will show that involved Monica’s dog. I love the details in this image – the dresses, the holding of hands, the wagging of the dog tail – it says so much with simplicity!
one moment – with Hampton (at 1:00am)
In between weddings, it was time for a quick post of Hampton, our trusty companion and loyal friend. I decided to take a few photographs for my review of the Canon 5D Mark III camera. I’m not going to write a lot. I don’t need to.
I’m not interested in too much of anything other than Continue reading
one moment – on The Jefferson Trail
Ginger got a little lovin’ on an engagement session with Kim and Brian on The Jefferson Trail in Charlottesville, Virginia. We will be documenting their wedding this December at The Homestead in Hot Springs.

I decided to take a portrait of their dog, George, with his expecting parents in the background. George has requested a 16×20 framed print above his dog house.

I am going to start with something I don’t use on wedding sessions, but I absolutely love from a personal standpoint. The Fuji-X100 is a compact camera that has a fixed 35mm (full frame equivalent) f/2 lens. It’s not a zoom and it doesn’t Continue reading
A few more moments with Hampton – and the Fuji X-100
Maran walking away and Hampton is confused as to why she is “leaving” him…….she just had to throw away your bag in the puppy waste basket, buddy.
one moment – in a vest
While eating dinner with friends, we noticed a vest moving from across the room – now you know the reason.
one moment – Greyson and Georgia
Our good friends, Leta and Kyle, were just blessed with their first child, Greyson……..well, it’s actually their second child if you count their chocolate lab, Georgia. Here, Greyson and Georgia have a little bit of “get to know ya” time in their parents living room.
