Happy Memorial Day!! Don't forget to thank a service person today for their support and service to our great country and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we can live free. :)

A treat for this Monday holiday - Engagement photos of Cindy and Kris! We met up last weekend when the weather was just perfect for some outdoor photos and running around Forest Park. Cindy is a sci-fi girl, like myself, and we were going on about the great new Star Trek movie out now! The young Capt. Kirk is way hot. :) Poor Kris was a good sport about it and we got some great shots. Thanks for hanging out with me, guys! Can't wait for your wedding in September!

What an honor for us to have Denis Reggie come to our PUG in St.Louis for a presentation! Denis is one of the top wedding photographers in the world and to hear him speak on lighting techniques, locations and marketing was beyond inspirational. He pioneered the 'wedding photojournalism' era and, I have to say, I would love to follow him around at a wedding for a day, just to see how a wedding photojournalist in its truest form operates. I strive to be photojournalistic in my own approach to wedding photography, but I would be a fat liar if I didn't say that one of my favorite times of the day is when I get to take the bride and groom and do rock-the-socks-off portraits. :)

I'm anxious to try out some of the techniques learned at the seminar - 'foofing' anyone? - and I know that learning experiences like this will surely make me a better photographer and documentarian. Thank you for all your inspiration Denis!

BTW, Justin from GigBooks was also on hand for a short demo before the big Denis presentation! Its a fantastic studio management tool I use to run my business and I'm so glad they made the trip!
