Oh my goodness. What can I say about Casey and Morgan’s wedding? Beautiful light, beautiful people, and friends I have known for 20 years. Here is a small preview, with more to come later.

You are going along, enjoying your day, and all of a sudden, BAMM, it’s an adorable bomb.

Last weekend, I finally got the chance to take engagement portraits of Casey and Morgan. Casey is one of my oldest friends, and Morgan is awesome. We photographed the pictures on a beautiful day at an old manor house owned by the company Casey works for. It was a very special day, and I can’t wait until their wedding next weekend.

2nd Street Gallery has an amazing music installation up this month. Invisible: Rhythm 1001 is a huge analog homemade drum machine played by 3 guys. I had a chance to see them perform this past weekend, and it was hot. I would suggest you check them out when they play on again at 2nd Street on May 29 and 30.

Mary Ann and Johns wedding was lovely. Boars Head Inn was beautiful, as always, and Mary Ann and John have amazing friends and family. Also, they were married by my good friend Reverend Claire. I hope that my imagery conveys the beautiful simplicity that I felt at there wedding.

I finally settled on what I am going to show at my upcoming photography show in June at Cafe Cubano. I have been spending a lot of time in some of Charlottesville’s wild spaces lately. I love being in nature, but I keep noticing all the signs of human habitation, especially waste. Bottles, tires, even refrigerators. Its a kind of damaged beauty that I find interesting, in a sad kind of way. I think I will call it Disposable Rivanna.

Anyway, check out what I have done so far. I would love to get your input while I am still in the early stages of working on the project.

My son William asked me to take some “silly photos” of him yesterday. Consider my heart warmed.
