Jenn and Tim make such a great team and they were amazing to photograph. The cold and rain wasn’t about to stop them.
These are the wonderful wedding professionals that made this amazing day possible… thanks guys!

One year ago Becca and I sat in the delivery room at the hospital waiting to find out if our new baby was a boy or a girl. With our first two children we decided to find out their gender at their ultrasounds. With Ireland we decided that since we had one boy and one girl we figured we would wait for the 9 months and be surprised. It drove Becca crazy to wait because she wanted to know so bad. Up until she was delivered I thought for sure she was a boy… we had a boy name already picked out. When she was delivered and the doctor asked me to announce her as a girl I couldn’t speak. I kept looking for the boy part but I couldn’t see it. It wasn’t that I was disappointed… it’s just that I was so convinced that she was going to be a boy. Once I finally got the words out of my mouth… “It’s a girl”… we could hear the cheers from our family. It took us four days to pick out a name for her but we finally did. I am so thankful that I was wrong… and I am eternally grateful for this little bundle of joy and the blessing that she is in my life.
I love you so much princess!

Every year thousands of wedding photographers and portrait photographers converge on Las Vegas for the annual WPPI conference and trade show. With the exception of the stale cigarette smoke that lingers for days after you return and the intense burning in my eyes from being hot boxed inside of the casino as I walked to the conference area, I love attending this conference. I am so fortunate to be a part of the photographic community and to be surrounded by amazingly talented people from all around the world. As a community we share ideas, learn from and mentor one another, and help each other out when needed. I have to say that today’s photographic community is vastly different from when I started Innovative Photography 8 years ago and for that I am thankful!
This was the second year I was involved in producing a shoot for other photographers that were visiting the conference. We learned a lot from our shoot last year and applied that knowledge to this years shoot. I am happy to announce that this year our shoot raised nearly $4,000 for charity. I would like to thank my friend Laura Marchbanks who was the head producer of this year’s shoot. I would also like to thank all of the photographers and couples who participated as well as my new friends Sarah and Thomas at the Las Vegas Country Club for hosting this shoot and donating their time and resources! If you are getting married in Vegas you should plan it at the country club.

I LOVE this next image! Chantal and Jared were great, it was cold and rainy and they didn’t complain once. These two are definitely in LOVE!

As many of you know, my family and I purchased a house a couple of months ago and if that wasn’t enough we decided to completely remodel it. We are neck deep in the middle of this remodel and I haven’t been able to post anything to my blog because we think it’s fun (not really) to stay up until 2:00 AM working on the house. Needless to say we hope to be wrapped up with this mess sometime in the next month or two but I will try and get some new posts up as soon as I can keep my head above water. If nothing else, I will throw a few of our remodel photos up to show the progress.
If any of you like to paint or know how to lay tile and want to help out let me know! 😉

Every year WPPI hosts a convention/trade show in Las Vegas. This convention attracts over 11,000 wedding and portrait photographers from around the world for loads of fun and lots of learning. For the past couple of years I have organized photo shoots for photographers to participate in. This year I am super excited to announce that I am organizing or helping to organize a number of shoots.
The first shoot to be announced is exciting for many reasons but for starters ALL of the profits are going to be donated to The Portrait House. Other reasons include but are not limited to… a super cool location, 5 shooting areas, multiple models…
If you are interested in participating in this shoot you’d better act fast because space is limited and I’m sure it’s going to sell out quick!
You can find the details on Laura’s site.
