And for all you new brides and grooms engaged for next year, its time to start thinking about who is going to shoot your wedding! I am offering new prices for this crazy economy.  And any state employees affected by the State Shutdown get 10% discount on any package! I hope this budget crisis ends soon and everything can get back on track.

Right now I have a great package that is very affordable. For just $899 I can photograph your whole day. All the getting ready, formals, ceremony, reception and dance photos. Shot in traditional and photojournalist style, your wedding will look absolutely stunning! You will receive a DVD of all the images that you can take to the lab and make prints. Of course you have full rights to your images and can use them for whatever media you want such as facebook or video slideshows for your HDTV.

I am not the Weather Man!

So after using a cigarette lighter to unfreeze my garage door locks, and walking the snow (SNOW!) I realized my weather predicting abilities aren't to great. I think I was biased in my opinion though, in hoping for spring I forgot that its still around the corner. Be careful out there, there is ice under the snow and it's slippery. If you have 4x4 like me today's the day for it.

Spring is nearly here!!!

The 2011 Wedding season is nearly here! I'm sure I'm not the only person in Minnesota that is looking forward to the end of the snow and cold and ready for some sun! This last Saturday (March 19th) the temp was up to 50 degrees! I celebrated by driving to one of my favorite State Parks, Banning State Park. We did some hiking and climbing through the cliffs and rocks, and up though the "kettles". The kettles are a amazing feature of the park. They are circular and some you can drop into and climb through the bottom. Others and be climbed up. We were glad we brought the cleats for our boots or we wouldn't have made it too far as there was still a lot of ice. But at the end of the day we both agreed that we felt that summer sun feeling on our faces and both got some color to our skin!
I know its raining cats and dogs out there now but I'll take it over the snow, I just hope the temp stays above freezing so nobody has to shovel one more time!
