You’re invited! May 1, 2008

Every first friday of the month, the Riverviews Artspace (my studio building), hosts an artists’ studio open house. Most of the artists open their studios for visitors young and old; its over three floors of artists and their work! I’m not in town for most of them but when I am, I love to see all the people who come by! Please consider this your open invitation to drop in at my studio on 901 Jefferson Street suite 207, between 6 and 8 Friday to see some of the latest work and sign up for our free portrait session give away!

Availability Update! April 2, 2008

Hi happy blog readers! Just a note - I limit the number of weddings I photograph each year to ensure my clients receive the best service and all my creative energies; I don’t book something every single weekend! I have about three dates remaining so if you are thinking about booking me for your wedding in 2008, please contact the studio as soon as you have your date!

By the bridge March 11, 2008

Sometimes thing just don’t work out the way you want - I was already commissioned for their date when this couple found out about me. Nonetheless, I was thrilled to shoot an engagement session with them, and, as promised Alison, here’s a sneak peek!

Hope y’all had a great dinner and a safe drive back to Roanoke!
