1:1 (one to one) shoot-shop

espresso2ways

A few weeks ago I had a fantastic 1:1 shoot shop with Julie! We delved into the world of Canon’s ETTL technology and came out the champs!

I enjoy getting together and talking shop with other photographers any day of the week. So if you are a student, pro, or just a hobbyest… it doesn’t really matter. You bring the questions, I’ll give you some answers! Let’s do a 1:1, have some coffee, go out to lunch… let’s talk photography. For the more casual questions you can catch me over at formspring, otherwise, you should drop me a line and we should get together.

Special thanks to our Rock’n model Joseph! An awesome brother and always fun to have around.

Dan & Lexi’s Classically Classy Wedding!

BLOG|Dan+Lexi|022I don’t think it’s possible to hide genuine excitement. Dan and Lexi are no exception, the joy and love that they have for each other was written on their every expression and found in every preparation that they made as they moved closer to the moment when they were united. I loved their wedding, and it was an honor to be their photographer. I don’t think I can say that enough. I love my job. Congratulations you smitten (arizona) devils!

Road Tripp’n!

BLOG|roadTrip|001

A few weeks ago Adam and I went on an adventure to return some vases to Jonathan (a CRAZY awesome high end event planner and a very dear friend) and also to see our friend Nate. I think that one of the coolest things about Nate is his natural ability to inspire and provoke thought.. about anything. The man is deep and I respect the dickens out of him. Wish you guys could have been on this adventure with us but I guess these few pictures will have to do.

Persian Awesome-ness Meets Cleveland Cool

During the toasts, mentioned several times, many family members addressed the heart of love and compassion that Margan and Adam had. Not only for each other but also for all of their friends and family around them. I truly believe that their understanding of love and their care for each other will not only bless them through out their lives but will also overflow to others as well. I was honored to be a part of their day and wish them a full and hearty congratulations!

    I can’t quite put my finger on it, although I think the REALLY GOOD and thoughtful composition is a big part of it, but this is my favorite wedding of yours that I’ve seen so far!

  2. Sarah Says:

    You’re putting out some really awesome work these days, Benj. Loving it.
