Laura...

Did a senior session with Laura recently. I'll have more information on senior sessions soon.

Creative Folks...

Had the opportunity to hang out with a friend and fellow Photographer Cory Ann Ellis in Brookings on Saturday along with Maria Lavallee. It was a blast just playing around with different photography techniques. We have similar tastes but different styles. Her son Ayden kept us entertained and also joined in to take a couple pics. We got our heads together for this pic. It made the three of us laugh hopefully you will enjoy it too

07.07.07 Sonja & Mike

Saturday was the big wedding day of this year. I had the honor of working with two people with very good taste. Sonja & Mike had a beautiful wedding & reception. Every detail was done well from music to the tux & dress. It was a hot day but we had a blast photographing the event.

An encouraging note from Shannon...

David-

Simply amazing. The first few pictures are exactly what I hoped (and knew) they would be!! You are truly talented and if you aren't doing this full time by next year I am going to drive down to Sioux Falls and kick your butt. I mean it!

We can't wait to see the rest! I will share this blog with our family and friends. We had a blast at the wedding and I am glad that you and Maria enjoyed the day as well. I LOVE the photos of my dad and I. I probably should have mentioned that day to focus on my parents and Grandma Ann and I, but I am sure that you did that. :) Grandma is almost 90 and those are pictures I will cherish forever.....

Also, I have already been your own walking advertisement because I am just SO impressed with your work. It is so refreshing to see your style. We will have to go into business together- I'll make wedding jewelry, my mom can be a planner/florist, and you can do the fabulous photos! We will be in touch!

07.03.07 Independence Day Early

Got invited to a celebration of our countries independence the other night. I felt a little anti-social spending all of my time taking photos of the kids and not visiting with the adults. But you know if there are photo ops I'm there. Did visit with an aspiring photog and had the opportunity to pass some knowledge on. Anyway, kids and explosives what a grand combination enjoy. :-)

06.30.07 Shannon & Nick

My most recent shoot took me to Marshall, MN for the wedding of a really special couple. Shannon & Nick came to Sioux Falls a few months back for an engagement session and we had a very good time together. From the time I stepped into the church I felt right at home with there friends & family. There were some tears shed in the audience particularly Shannon's aunt that was labelled "the cryer" prior to the ceremony. :-) Tears of joy that I was honored to capture in some of the pictures. I am looking forward to working with more of Shannon & Nicks family & friends. Also looking forward to a long friendship with these new friends. Shannon hope the three of us can make that Europe trip happen, I'll be the photog. Love you guys. -David

The details were awesome...
