Pet Portraits


Don't forget a great pet portrait makes a wonderful gift. Your pet is a family member and should be treated that way. Nittany shown above convinced his owners that he can be very photogenic. You can view Nittany's complete set of images on our facebook site at:

Spring Waterfall Workshop






We took a ride through three counties and found six waterfalls. We shot five of the six because the Medina waterfalls was too over grown with brush and trees to get a solid view of it. Here are some shots from our tour starting at the top, Royalton falls, Holley falls, Clarendon falls, Indian falls, Akron falls. Double click images to enlarge.

Spring is here...


Spring is my favorite season. After a cold gray winter it is so refreshing to get outside. The trees are budding out and the birds are chirping. The flowers add a welcome color that has been dorment for 6 months. I love to take my camera into our gardens and capture nature's colors. Here is a quick snap from this morning.

Family Portraits


Easter Sunday we had the extreme pleasure to photograph the Owen's family outside their home. A wonderful family to work with and we got plenty of images for them to choose from. The day was perfect for pictures and as a nice touch everyone color co ordinated to make a pleasing portrait; They will cherish these images for years to come. Every family should think about having a family portrait done every 3-5 years for a record of their family and how it changes over the years. Our location rates make it very affordable.
