Alexander & Erica – McMaster University Engagement Photo Shoot

On December 18th I had the privilege of shooting some good friends of mine, Alexander and Erica. Alexander proposed to Erica about a month back and then approached me to do their engagement photos. This is a sample of the fun we had back on December 18th. I knew that this was going to be a lot of fun and an easy shoot on my end because of how affectionate they both are in public. We'll by "in public" I mean behind closed doors and between the two of them but I didn't have to twist anyone's hands to hard to get some great PDA's and photo's that captured some intimate moments. We had a blast...

Kali & Justin – Niagara on the Lake Engagement Photo Shoot

I’ve known Kali and Justin for a few months now through my job at the university where Kali and I both work.  Anyone who knows Kali will agree that she is an amazing person who loves to joke and has a great smile.  There have been many conversations that were supposed to be quick but ended up turning into a run of topics and an escapade of jokes.  Naturally when I heard that Kali was engaged I was excited for her and anticipated meeting Justin.  Justin is similar to Kali in the fact that they are both easy people to get along with and have a heart for being genuine. I asked them to do an engagement...

Pat & Danielle: Some fun in front of the Camera

Last week we had a beautiful sunny summer day that I was itching to grab my camera and start shooting. I asked my friend Pat and his wife Danielle if they would be my talent for a summer photo shoot. We had bright sun and a warm breeze from the fields around us. I wanted to say thank you to Jack Boers for allowing us to use his property for the evening and to Pat and Danielle for sticking it out for a couple of hours. We ended up with some great shots and we had a lot of fun. I hope you can enjoy the photo's.

Hundreds of NCAA Schools award athletes over $1 billion in sports scholarships. The goal of this post is to help high school athletes find information and provide beneficial advice so they can increase their chances of getting noticed and playing at the next level.
