The Farmer’s Market

May 13, 2010

One evening after work I decided I would drive around the city & see if I could find a couple of things to shoot. Well I ended up in downtown Hattiesburg where I encountered several independent vendors at a “Farmer’s Market”. One of the things that instantly struck me was the uniqueness of each vendor & the products or mechandise they had for sale. There was everything from homemade honey, jelly, & jams to goat jerky. I love beef jerky just as much as the next person but I don’t think i’m quite ready to venture off & cross over into the goat’s side of the fence (just yet). However, I was tempted to buy some of the “Goat Jerky’ just out of plain curiousity lol. Well anyway I  just wanted to share a few of these images with you all. While snapping a few of these shots it really was a great reminder to me of

1.why I love photography so much
2.why I got into photography in the first place.
3.how relaxing and therapeutic it is to just go out & photograph any & everything you see.
It’s definitely a good break from fashion, wedding, & portraiture styles of photography.

Reginald & Lanea’s Wedding

May 8, 2010

I had the opportunity to work with a fellow photographer, Derrick Hicks, whose work & shooting style I really admire for this wedding. I always enjoy working with other photographer’s because you get the chance to see things from another perspective & learn a few things.

I enjoyed meeting the bride & groom along with the wedding party, family members, & friends. One of the things that stood out to me about this wedding was that they released white dove’s as part of the wedding ceremony. I’ve always wanted to photograph the releasing of the dove’s since starting wedding photography so this wedding was the perfect moment. I also thought that the ice sculpture at the reception was pretty cool also.

Without digressing any further here are the images I have selected to share with you from Reginald & Lanea’s wedding. I hope you enjoy. Once again a big shout out to photographer Derrick Hicks for letting me shoot with you. I’m definitely looking forward to working with you again soon!

Larry + Sara’s Engagement Session

May 2, 2010

Well, well, well….what can I say? Larry & Sara tricked me lol. Larry & I are good college buddies that go back all the way to freshman year (BOND-HALL, SMTTT!!! ). I got a call from Larry one day saying that he & Sara wanted to just take a few photos together. Nothing to elaborate or formal. Well what do you know, right before we began the session they told me that they were going to California & getting married the very next week. So this “informal” not so “elaborate” portrait session turned into a full fledged Engagement session. I didn’t mind at all though & I was happy for them both (did I forget to mention SHOCKED as well). So anyway I mentally switched to “engagement session” mode & it was on from there. The park we were at was a really good location, especially as the evening sun began to set. I really love the images I captured of Larry & Sara. Trust me its not easy getting Larry to smile, its a very RARE event lol… I hope you all enjoy these images & don’t forget to leave your comments !

P.S.  CONGRATULATIONS MR. & MRS. LARRY GUSTA !!!
