this day makes me sad. make sure you all tell the people in your life how much they mean to you…not just today, but everyday.

taken on a recent trip the great city of NYC. it’s just a nice reminder how a city that has been through so much is still so resilient and filled with still so much pride.

august & everything after.

Few people may know that our first date was to a Counting Crows concert. Their music has, in a way, been the theme song(s) to our relationship ever since. With that in mind, it’s not only a huge privilege, but also of immense sentimental value that today Lauren can say she officially took the image on the newly released Counting Crows DVD: August & Everything After – Live At Town Hall

Her relationship with the band and their representatives has been such an amazing experience , and I’m so proud of her talents in capturing the final image. She’ll never brag about it, so that’s why I’m writing today to say congrats!

L-Buddy, Rex, Gwen, Homer, and I are all so very proud of you ๐Ÿ™‚
Anyway, go out and buy it. The DVD and the album are in stores as of midnight today, or you can buy it online from the linked photos.

meggie & bernardo. » openFieldphotography. - […] wedding. we first met this family when we photographed meggie’s older sisters wedding, so it was wonderful seeing familiar faces again! everything about their big day was elegant and […]

betsy & tom. (part two)

betsy & tom ROCK. just like i said in their “part one” post. we met up for the second part of their session and found that betsy’s dad had this AMAZING old carnival ride on the property. i think it was called a flying swing/swing gym…all i know is that i loved it. i loved it even more when betsy told me that when she was in high school a friend and her rode in it and made it go around 582 times. ๐Ÿ™‚

we’re so freaking excited for their september wedding.

yay!
