It’s taken a little time to get it right, but our new site is up and running….and our old site is now gone! I’m so excited for this transition.

We also have another bit of news…Lyrical Lens Photography now has a retail space!! It is Located on Rt. 10 in Plainville.  It’s a small space, but is perfect for now. As soon as we get closer to getting everything set-up and ready to go I will post some pics. I’m looking forward to our Grand Opening!!

And…We had a great time this weekend shooting Amanda and Jeremy’s wedding on the 5th!

Here are a couple images…

Well, it’s prom season, again! My sister had her’s and I thought that I’d be fun to shoot her getting ready. All I have to say is “when did she grow up?”  I really am proud of the woman she is becoming!

My application was accepted! I am formally a member of the CT PPA!  Whats that mean for you?

Well being a member of the CT PPA will:

• Help improve my photographic skills

• Help improve my business skills

• Networking with fellow photographers

I’m already been a member of the Professional Photographers of America, which is the national association. Now I have even more support on the local level. I’m so excited about this, because staying up-to-date in this industry takes effort. I’m always learning, and changing,  thats the way I want it. I don’t ever want to say that I know everything…then I will no longer be evolving. It’s really just another way for me to improve my craft, which will benefit my clients!!

Also, if you have been keeping up with our Facebook fan page….you know that there are some changes coming!! I will be launching a lot of new stuff over the next week or so….I’m so excited, and can’t wait to show it all to you!! So keep an eye out…it’s gonna be awesome!

I love designing baby announcements! I have a couple more I’ll post more in a day or two….I have to make sure I’m not ruining any surprises!!

Custom Designed Baby Announcements

On Location portraits don’t have to be really formal. “Mini-sessions” are really great for documenting little things (but big milestones) like lost teeth and first steps, in between the normal portrait sittings.

On Location

Most people I know would call me a wedding photographer. Of course I LOVE shooting weddings….but I also think that shooting other areas of photography (babies,  landscapes, entertainment, and commercial stuff)  makes me a BETTER wedding photographer! I don’t ever want to be the photographer that ‘knows it all.’ To me that means I’ve turned  into a stuffy old man, who dislikes his job, and only does it because it pays well.  And I never want to be ‘stuck’ in one way of shooting. I see it as an art, and I want to contiue to mold it with new ideas. Thats why I love taking seminars, reading books…and listening to the photographers I love talk about what inspires them. I guess, in a nutshell, it’s not about a girl and her camera….it’s about a way of life.

Anyway, I was doing some PC “cleaning” and ran into some images that I love.  So I thought over the next week or so, I’d showcase come stuff that doesn’t get enough “limelight”.

Back n November 2009 I photographed a friends band in New York. It was a great time….and here are a few of my faves….

Cya in a few days…

The Straight Up Dirties

Many of our brides ask us, “exactly what is a proof box?”

A proof box is…well, a box to put your proofs in…..  

But, I’ve decided that our proof boxes deserve a little more credit than that! They are beautiful..and uniquely yours.  Many of our brides are “scrappers” and love the fact that they can have their proofs to scrap with, but don’t have to bother with a proof album.

We also use these in the studio for family pictures, baby pictures, etc.

So if your looking for a unique box that will hold your treasured memories, then this box is for you! (and as a bonus, I always order the box a little bigger than then I need it to be….so that you can put in some of  your  own fav images as well!!
