Sneaky-peaky of Jeff and Nancy's wedding! - Bay Area Sneaky Photography

So, I just couldn't wait to post at least SOMETHING from Jeff and Nancy's wedding.  A blog post to roll out more images will be coming forthwith (I feel like saying forthwith makes me Abraham Lincoln - oh well.  He had an epic beard - BACK ON TOPIC ("Stay on target... STAY ON TARGET!")...

Here's just a sample of what's coming.  :-)  G'night!

Footsteps of the Cross - Deeply Respectful Photography

I love my church. In fact, I REALLY love it. Their community involvement, especially. Things like Beautiful Day (www.beautifulday.org) is something my wife and I have been involved in for a few years ago.  And we just love seeing the impact our church has on our community.  And, oh yeah, I re-met my wife at our church, too.  So, we have a fondness for where we worship.  :-)

But seriously, they're awesome.  And they have such an artsy crew of people around there. Musicians, painters, sculptors, art teachers, photographers *wink wink*.  We all have our own thing going on, and all have so many opportunities to display our talents.

A few weeks ago I got a chance to photograph a very private event that our church put on.  The footsteps of the cross, aka the stations of the cross.  It gives people a chance to see, touch, feel, and worship, in a manner which is directly related to the crucifixion.  Again, this is a very private event, so I felt super blessed to be able to watch people who were praying, talking to God, and worshiping the Creator.  Very deep experience for me, and I don't get deep very often.

*If you or someone you know is in any of these photographs and would like the image taken down, please let me know.  We understand this was a personal moment and wish to be nothing but respectful.*

The Tabery Family - Bay Area Family Photography

It never ceases to amaze me how you meet amazing people.  Cyrus and Julia are neighbors and friends to new friends of ours, Jeff and Nancy (whose wedding we're shooting in a few days!).  So funny!

Well, they were such troopers.  Julia was 3 days from her due date, and was in such a good mood.  And their daughter is so cute!

Thank you to Cyrus, Julia, and their daughter for being so flexible.  And a HUGE thank you to their new baby girl, for not making mommy go into labor in the middle of our little session.  :-)

We've been busy! - Bay Area Busy (and totally awesome) Photography

Sorry I haven't updated in a while.  Simply put, we've been busy!  Baby Buchanan is growing by the minute and will be here as scheduled in mid-to-late July, God has blessed us with TONS of work, good family, good friends, and we couldn't be happier with where we sit in life right now.  God has been good to us.  SO good.

Thanks for being patient, and more will be arriving soon!  Until then, here's a quick little somethin'-somethin' to tide you over...

Okay... I lied.  Here's one more because, well, girls are stinky.  :)
