These are a few images from our wedding this past weekend, great couple.

A couple more of Katie.

Last week, I attended a one-day lighting workshop in Albany, NY with Neil Van Newkirk, who is well known for his use of flash and lighting in general. It was a worthwhile day to refresh what I already know and pick up a few new ideas. This model Katie, was fun to work with.

This image was for a contest at the convention to celebrate the 80th year for the Vermont Professional Photographers.

Another group of prints that I entered, in all I entered six prints and received four blue ribbons and two reds. I was also honored with the award of most promising newcomer, which was a nice honor. Although I am not new to photography, I am a recent member to the Vermont Professional Photographers.

These are three images that I entered into the Print Competition at the annual convention of the Vermont Professional Photographers held this past weekend at the Equinox Hotel in Manchester. I am a board member, so some of my time was spent with set-up and take down. I enjoyed getting to know my fellow photographers and talking shop.

Another day at NEIPP was spent working with a family with three little children and only window light, these were three photos that I liked.

Again this year, I attended the NEIPP school on Cape Cod, it was a great week of learning new techniques and networking with other photographers. These three photographs are of models used for practicing in class.

Merry Christmas from our home to yours, may you have a happy and safe New Year.

It was great fun to photograph and a pleasure to meet Samantha, she has a great spirit and personality, that I think, came through in her photographs. What beautiful eyes, too.
