Posts from — December 2007

I just finished watching Mike Colon’s latest DVD - On Location with Mike Colon: Toronto. This DVD is absolutely amazing and essential for any photographer who admires Mike’s outstanding work. From start to finish you will get an inside view into Mike’s thinking and logic photographing a spectacular wedding in Toronto. Witness first hand how he and his team cope with rain and three different bridal gowns!

Be sure to check out Mike’s website and take advantage of a killer Christmas offer he has going on. The out-takes alone are worth the price of the DVD. Big thanks to UncleRay and Mike to hooking me up.

What an amazing wedding. UncleRay invited T the Brit and me to document a one of a kind wedding at the Rusty Pelican in beautiful Key Biscayne. One wedding, one day, one location, two brides (twins), two grooms and three killer Nikon users = one amazing wedding. Key Biscayne is like a second home to me, having gone to high school just outside the main entrance most of my high school years were spent riding jet skies just off Rusty Pelican’s door. Its great to come back as a wedding photographer and see what has changed since my high school years, its also kind of cool to take my clients to all the “secret” places on the Key for some killer engagement and day after sessions.

Below are some of my images from the amazing day.

Big thanks to Ray and T for a great time. If you are looking for a fun wedding photographer with a photojournalistic passion to document your Key Biscayne wedding please be sure to check out my website for some super cool portfolio samples of my work or give me a call and lets talk the plans for your special day!

Grandma volunteered to keep the girls for the party yesterday so we could have a worry free night. Today it was family time and we went to dinner on Miracle Mile. We had a blast!

I am very thankful that I have been blessed with such wonderful friends and family. I will update the post with additional pictures as I receive them.

I love the fall and growing up in Miami I was never able to experience it. Fortunately, I have been able to photograph the magical transformation on several occasions. Last year I spent a week with fellow Nikonian Digital Darrell who gave me first class tour of the Smoky Mountains. Yesterday I got an email from Darrell with this shot of me in action. I think at the time I had the prerelease alpha version of the Nikon D3. lol 

This is great, I have very few pictures of me. Thanks Darrell. Be sure to check out Darrell’s forums, they are a great resource for any photographer.

Two weeks ago UncleRay, T the Brit and I took Tracy and Roger to Miami Beach for a spectacular engagement session. They will be having an amazing wedding in a couple of weeks in the Florida Keys. We started the shoot in front of the Lincoln Road Apple Store and worked the beach like crazy. We wrapped up the day at the world famous Nikki Beach.

I had a blast and a big thank you to Ray, T and most importantly Tracy & Roger!

I love this song! I first heard it on XM Radio and found out its by a killer group called Go Fish Guys who create great music for kids that will not drive parents bonkers! As a father of two girls I am always looking for an alternative to Hannah Montana! Every year around Christmas I listen to a song that just sticks in my head and this is it.
