It's now Christmas Eve, my birthday. How best do I celebrate being old? Well, it's the fact that 2010 was a really great year. Here is a small handful of images I made this year that make me proud. Each of these represent a moment that means a great deal to me personally and photographically. I'm so excited for 2011. Like, ridiculously excited.
However, I should say that my favorite pictures have to be of these two. They make me smile forever.
Senior portraits in December. High School portrait deadlines can hold their horses.
Sunshine in December? It happened and it was a miracle.
To be asked to photograph a wedding is an honor. To be asked to help photograph a wedding in India is an experience that is beyond description. It's one of those experiences where even photography falls short. Thank you to Ashley for having me along. To Raj & Karishma, I cannot thank you and your families enough for the incredible love and hospitality you showed us. I'm grateful to be a photographer. Enter a 5 day, insanely-rad, Hindu wedding, beginning in Vadodara and ending in Meerut (just north of Dehli). We traveled by plane, train, auto-rickshaw, regular-rickshaw, and taxi. Raj got the horse though, cause he's the one who got married. Shot with digital and Fuji Pro400H film.
