Today was a serene and peaceful day spent with two of the nicest and coolest people you will ever know. Last year, we worked with Michelle & Josh for their Engagement Shoot which provided all of us an opportunity to get to know each other better. Which is great so the “ice breaker” time is spent on our 1/2 day Engagement Shoots instead of during the formal portraits on the wedding day. (more…)

Hi David,

I really can’t believe that a month has already gone by since our wedding.  We had the best time!  Everything turned out absolutely perfect.  You took some gorgeous pictures from what we’ve seen so far, so we can’t wait for the rest.

I cannot express how much Marc and I enjoyed working with you.   You manage to find such a perfect balance between crazy fun and absolute professionalism.  You were so great at keeping it fun while still moving things along when we had a time frame to work with.  Many of our guests commented on how great you were, and I couldn’t help but once again feel so lucky that we found you.  I really hope we have the opportunity to work with you again soon!  So once again, thank you for being such an important part of our wedding and helping to preserve our happiest day!!!

I hope you and your wife are well and things are busy (but not too busy!).  Talk to you soon!

Many thanks,

Kirsten (Albert, hahaha)

Beautiful email from her indeed!

I hope your week is as blessed as ours is - cheers!

I just got in from dinner & had an awesome email from April that is off the charts about Jason’s killer Birthday Party on Saturday. Check this out!

“David, OMG! We had such a great time Saturday night for Jason’s Old Man Party aka 30th Birthday. Things got off to a slow start with the guest of honor arriving a little late (almost an hour and a half). But once he got there it was an all out BLAST! David you were so wonderful making your way through the crowds of people. You just blended in with everyone stopping to talk to a few (yea I caught you)…lol. I cant wait to see all the shots that you got…the sneak peak photos are great and I can only imagine how the others will turn out! Thank you so much for being a part of another big milestone in our lives…I know that there will many more to come and we would love to have you a part of them!”
I truly love what I do & it is great to know that what we’re doing is making a difference in this wild & crazy world.

This is definitely the desert to a great dinner tonight - cheers!

“David is the MAN!! We had him as our photographer at our Wedding and did such an amazing job! Everyone that see’s our photo album is blown away at the quality and detail of his artwork. I cannot wait to see the pictures from my Birthday Party / 281 Motorsports Launch Party! I’m hoping he missed this one embarrassing moment…”

Miss an embarrassing moment?  Nah… we would never want to miss those!  They’re the best kind of photos to have!  :-)

It’s only Tuesday and we hope your week is off to just a great a start as ours - cheers!
