Merry Christmas from the Wegners


Merry Christmas from the Wegners. I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who trusted me with your family and wedding photography needs. Your support and considerations this year for my photographic abilities to meet your needs has truly been rewarding. Thank you and I hope 2010 will truly be a blessed year for everyone.

Image set up, taken Christmas day with natural light no flash a great location and a photographer that can run from his camera to his family really fast when he forgets his remote :-)

Soares Family Shoot



Mixing it up a little, and enjoying the bright bold colors of fall. Then a dash of an old world painterly look on a bridge. Great day of shooting and great times no doubt. Thank you Soares family for coming down from Santa Rosa and letting me shoot the family and your son Jared's seniors pics.

Jared Soares Senior Shoot















Hi everyone, here is another post for everyone to enjoy. I have to say that what a difference it makes when the client has an idea of what he or she wants. Jared was full of great ideas and inspiration. I really believe his confidence was captured in the images we shot. We both had a great rhythm together and my ideas were his. Couldn't ask for better conditions the sky was full of clouds making for a great back drop as well as one giant soft box. Everything about this shoot was perfect and had a hoot of a time. Jared I'm so glad you chose to come down from Santa Rosa to have me shoot your Senior pics. Tell your friends and let them know about me. If some of your friends are interested I can come up on a weekend and shoot them or they can come here.

The Johnson Family




Wow what a beautiful spot. While out scouting locations I came across this spot in the middle of the day. I had noticed that as the sun would set it should go directly behind the trees. I made a note to time this spot for a sunset shoot trusting my intuition for lighting.
I took Cynthia, Quintin, Justin and Tayler to the spot and had a blast. My intuition was right on the money and I couldn't ask for anything more. Had some great light and two well behaved kids. Thank you for such a great and easy shoot you guys. It was about 15 minutes and I was like ok we are done. They were like, ahh you got them already. Yep, we can keep shooting if you like but we deffinately have some great family shots here. One location a couple poses, wow I wish everyshoot was so easy,

Photoshop World

Well just a quick update for everyone. Photoshop World in Vegas was a blast and a jam packed 4 days. I'm glad I stayed another day just to recoup. So much intake I think everyone who attended was on brain overload.
The Mandalay Casino/Resort is where the show and convention were held. Unknown until we got there the Mandalay was also holding another convention. This was the worlds biggest tattoo convention. What a fun a crazy bunch of folks that showed up for that convention. Since I love to people watch as most of you do too, it was never a dull moment around there.
Really how can you go to Vegas and not have a blast of a time!!

Rogers Wedding













Sept 19, 2009
I just wanted to share some of my favorite images from the wedding. I know Dossie is very anxious to see some so here you are, and I hope you enjoy.
Congratulations to Dossie and Garry Rogers on their Wedding. Turned out to be a great wedding. Would of been nice to of had air conditioning in the church. With the outside temps reaching 100+ I couldnt tell if people were crying or sweating :-) All in all I was happy to of had the opportunity to shoot the wedding.
I would like to thank Dan Parkinson on his 2nd shooter skills and the fun we had together.
Again just a big congratulations to both of you.

The Rogers and Henson Engagement

Well what can I say, other than I had a fun time shooting this couple. We traveled about an hour from town to the foothills of Springville. We got lucky and the weather was not to hot. Unfortunately the worst time of the day to shoot in is when we could get together. Devil light as it is referred to, the 12 noon style of light. If they werent squinting from the brightness of the sun I had crazy shadows to contend with. They gave me a good run for the money I tell ya, testing my abilities.
We made the most of it and would jump into any shadow we could find, However, most of the shoot was in fact out in the harsh light. I am looking forward to shooting their wedding and not running from the sun. Im looking forward Dossie to the 49 Merc you will be showing up in.
Thanks Garry and Dossie for showing me another cool spot to shoot in. Any family and friends that are interested in any of these images I will be giving Garry and Dossie a link to a web page I will be setting up for them. On that web page you will be able to order any image at any size. So stay tuned.

Weddings In Ohio





























More of my favorites I shot in Ohio.

Weddings In Ohio
















When it comes to Ohio, I have found that they are not short on beautiful places and churches. I mean really how can you screw up ( well, I mean, ah, yes you can).
Anyways, All the images here were shot by me. I could not resist taking such a gorgeous shot or two. The Churches are hand picked by David and he does use them often for Weddings. I have to admit, that using the same venue over and over would make it easy to nail the money shots as he has 30 years in the area I believe. All his experience is being shared with each group and I am looking forward to making beautiful images for my clients as well.
I hope you enjoy..
