Scott Kelby's WorldWide PhotoWalk - Ottawa Morning Edition

Saturday was Scott Kelby's third WorldWide PhotoWalk.  And it was hot.  A dark morning that looked like it might promise rain turned into a sweltering muggy trek through the Market in Downtown Ottawa.  Despite the heat I had a wonderful walk.

My girlfriend Sharon tagged along with me this year and several other photographers I know, professional an non-professional alike, were part of the group of 50.

I liked trying to find fun things to photograph that were out of the ordinary.  I actually found a few side alleys that were cute and I would have never noticed had I not been stopping to look.

Here are a few of my favorites from the walk, more can be found on my Flickr page should you wish to take a look.

Ashley and Sam Engagement Shoot - Ottawa Wedding Photographer

On Sunday we had a nice break from some of the heat of July and met up at the University of Ottawa for an engagement shoot with Ashley and Sam.  Such a gorgeous couple.  So easy going and fun to work with.  The gardens on campus were lush and provided us with the perfect backdrop for our shoot.  Thank you Ashley and Sam for such a wonderful afternoon.

Here is your sneak peek.

I just had to get a photo of Ashley's shoes.  I love them. I look forward to seeing what wedding shoes she will pick.

What a gorgeous couple.  Thank you again Ashley and Sam for such a great day, looking forward to the Wedding Day already.

Picture Perfect - Rehoboth Beach, DE Photographer

A picture doesn't have to be perfect to be perfect.

Sometimes we can spend an hour trying to get the perfect picture only to realize later that the perfect picture was the one where the hair was flying and both children weren't looking at the camera.

This picture is perfect to me because the sand was cool, the sun was warm and both of our children were happy.  If one photo can signify our time together perfectly it is this one.

Don't spend more time than you need to trying to get that perfect picture, chances are you already got it.

Riding the Carousel - Ocean City, MD Photographer

If you are taking a trip to Ocean City, Maryland be sure to stop by the Trimpers Rides.  This 1902 Carousel has been there since it was built.  It is one of the oldest Carousel's left in the US.  They just don't make them like they used to.
