Calves 2013 | Beaver County Photographer

Sooooo  about that post that I promised for last week. I decided to postpone it in light of the sudden outburst of calves that we’ve had in the past 24 hours.

This calf we named Rajosh in honor of two very good friends of ours who will be married in April. :)

These next two’s names are pending. I’ll be posting the names on Facebook when we have them. (facebook link on right sidebar)

Williamsburg 2013 | Williamsburg VA Photographer

Sooooooo I FINALLY got this post up!  It took me forever to go through all these pics. Thanks for being patient even though this was a few days late :) I’ll be putting up another post near the end of the week to make up for this so keep your eyes peeled.

This was our second year going to Williamsburg. We went with a group of large families and we all lived on the same street at the resort. So in other words, TONS of fun and fellowship. :) It was awesome to renew old friendships and make new ones. Here is just a SMALL sampling of our week. Enjoy :)

We traveled to Bacon’s Castle which is the oldest brick building in Virginia. To get there, we had to use the ferry. It was a first for most of us.

Bokeh Backdrop | Beaver PA Photographer

So remember how I said in this post that I was going to post every week? Yeah, well I had it all planed out so it would work but we went on vacation last week and I was without internet all week. So I apologize for that.

These pictures were taken a few weeks ago. I was experimenting with backdrops. This set up was rather funny. I was using a metal framed coat rack to hold everything up and there was extension chords strung through the window for the lights. :P Do you all like this backdrop? Are the lights too tacky looking? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.  Enjoy :)

Pittsburgh Penguins Skirmish 2013 | Pittsburgh PA Photographer

Pens White Team warm up Skirmish 2013

A month ago, we took the whole family to watch the Penguin’s skirmish, which had free parking and free admission. It was a blast and totally worth the two hour wait outside in the cold blustery weather.(for me anyways. The rest of the family still hates me :P ) I was also able to get my camera inside which was a first. Also I was able to move around a bit and parked myself right behind one of the professional photographers there. Here are some of the pictures.

Enjoy :)

Busy Days

Wow. I have been so busy the last few weeks! Starting college has really put the blog on the back burner. Since I have been so negligent, I have decided that I MUST post at least once a week. So start counting on weekly posts. :) Also, I have some really cool pictures that I’ll posting in the very near future and there are also a few exciting things in the works.

Will be posting soon.

Old Fashioned Christmas | Beaver, PA Photographer

I finally have these up!!!! After a long time in planning, I finally go around to doing these! :) This was my first real try out with my new Cannon 7D camera, which, by the way, I LOVE. :) I still have a lot of learning to do on it. Every thing that came natural now takes me a while to get used to.

Keep checking the blog in the next weeks. I’ll have more frequent posts and maybe a few surprises. :)
