Hi everyone! Good news! I have a preview set of images from Chad & Cynthia’s wedding to share with you!

I’ve tried about twelve times to write a release post… and now I’m sitting here thinking that I’ve hyped this release so much that it doesn’t need an introduction! So I’ve decided just to say this: to Chad and Cynthia, thank you for trusting us to capture the memories of your special day; to all the family and friends we met as we worked, it was a pure pleasure to meet and talk with all of you. Please enjoy these “teasers” and click on any of them to be taken to the gallery page to see the rest. We hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we enjoyed taking them.

Yep, that’s definitely been us as the holiday season turned into the new year! And it’s certainly not an excuse for the lack of blog posting. Still I thought I should pop in for a catch-you-up post here for those that might not be following us on Facebook. In and amongst the holiday rush, we’ve been involved in some personal development type projects (commonly known on other photographers’ blogs as GOYA, or get-off-your-arse, projects) – the kind that aren’t for public release and meant for raising your skill level. We’ve had a lot of fun challenging ourselves to be more creative and gain even more of a professional edge in our work. If that sounds sort of odd, I think this quote from photographer Edward Weston says it best: “Photography to the amateur is recreation, to the professional it is work, and hard work too, no matter how pleasurable it may be.”
That said, we do enjoy photography even when the pace is very hectic as it has been the last month or so. We rolled right from the year-end into a wedding that was quite large and at the same time, pure joy to shoot – we wouldn’t have missed this one for the world and can’t wait to release the images. Chad and Cynthia are two of this world’s most loving people, as are their families, and the moments we captured at their wedding are some of the most touching we’ve ever taken. Look forward to seeing shots in the next couple of weeks (hopefully! – the couple still has to give their ok!).
Well, I hope you’ve enjoyed this quick tidbit. Watch your mailbox for the next update – it should be a wedding post! (And if you’re not subscribed, do it now! Click the subscribe link at the top of the page!)
