Esther and her mom Mandy share the same birthday date! Cool, hah;)  Esther wanted to do something different this year so she googled my work among the other Philadelphia photographers and the Surprise Photo Session was quickly set up!  I was really inspired by that true mother-daughter love!!! I’m sure you can see it in the pictures!

The Summer is almost over folks! Finally, I know! Another Global Worming Craziness like this and I’m moving to Boston:)

Any way! What I’m tying to say is that Fall is great time for family portraits so hurry up and book your session now!

SITTING FEES FOR LOCATION SESSIONS START ONLY $75!

My beautiful friend and talented photographer Toray Butler asked me to take few head shots of her so we met at Schuylkill River Trail.  Toray’s newly proposed fiance Charles was around though and  the whole thing end up being  an improvised engagement photo session:) Special thanks Deidra  for the help with my lighting:)

Jenn and Scott are clients of mine that in some reason I feel close to me as sweetest friends! They are such warm personalities so it instantly felt nice been around them!!!

Here are the photographs from their Engagement photo-session in Longwood Gardens. Soon I’ll show you their Engagement/Guest Photo Book as well!

I’m so happy to be featured on Zookbinders’ blog!
One of the best album companies out there goes through the work of countless photographers each month so I couldn’t believe when they contacted me with the request to use one of my albums in their marketing campaigns! Now I’m in their Costumer spotlight and in Photo of the week!
Zookbinders became my bindery of choice after long research, comparing the products of many US and international companies. I wanted for my clients the finest albums available and the Zookbinders’ quality fit the bill!
Take a look and please don’t judge too hard my answers;) I truly believe that the world would be a better place if we don’t take life too seriously!

Sean was exactly 4 weeks during the shoot last Saturday. The newest member of the big Stretch family!

Happy 1/12th  Birthday dear Sean!!!

We all love you!!!

Here is one more zoom-able picture that I took for Funico Studios – NY.  Thank you guys, for letting me use it on my blog!

This one is 8×10” crop so it’s only 7.2 Mega Pixels but still maintains  tons of detail thanks to  – AF DC-NIKKOR 135mm f/2D .

This glass was introduced back in 1995.  May be discontinued, it always be a legendary portrait lens thanks to it’s  Defocus Image Control allowing for control of the degree of focus in the foreground or background.

Pic spec:

Nikon D700,     f/4,     1/160 s,    ISO – 200,  RAW converter – Capture One 4,    Skin retouch and overall enhancements – Photoshop

Още една снимка  от Никонската легенда – Nikkor DC 135 mm f/2D
Тази е кроп 8х10 инча и е само 7,2 мегапиксела. Въпреки това е много детайлна, благодарение на великолепния обектив!
Представен през 1995 година, все по-сълни са  слуховете, че обективът е спрян. Каквато и да е истината, благодарение на DC-функцията си(Defocus Image Control) този NIKKOR ще остане в историята като уникално портретно стъкло.
Аз лично, очаквам с нетърпение G-версия с N-покритие!!!
Може би още 2010 годна:)

Here are some mugshots of my friends the young actors Jillian Watson and Evan Jonigkeit!
