I photographed Mary and TJ's wedding acouple of years ago. Since then, they've had two beautiful children, and TJ is fast becoming an accomplished portrait photographer. Recently, they asked me to take a few family pictures.
First, I'll start with a few of my favorites from their wedding. If you have ever been in The Bridal Collection in Marina Square, which is owned by Mary's mother Gaylynn, you've seen a variation of this portrait of Mary on the wall. I still use this image to close out my portfolio slideshow From then to now. TJ, Peyden, Caitlyn, and Mary
Hometown, Vauxhall, N.J., which is about 15 miles west of Times Square. I dislike cheese except on pizza.
First photo published was the cover shot for National Speedsport News of Mark Donahue winning the Trans Am race at Brigehampton Speedway in Long Island. Sold first print in 1976. Vowed I’d never do weddings.
Big time Broncos fan. I’ve been to two Super Bowls. Saw them lose one and win one. I’ve run the NYC Marathon six times. I’ve done Ride the Rockies twice, Pedal the Peaks once.
Go to church regularly and consider myself a Christian. I respect everyone’s religious beliefs.
Never judge what someone thinks is a good picture. I never refuse a photo request, ie table shots or dad pulling his pants pockets inside out. It’s their pictures.
Favorite city besides Denver is Paris, France.
I’m pretty much self taught but have been to a ton of seminars, workshops, and college level photography classes over the years.
