You’ve all met Jennifer and Chad before in their Engagement Session which was actually quite a long time ago in June of 2008!  Jennifer and Chad tied the knot on May 23, 2009 at the Hotel Albuquerque.  Yes I know, this blog entry is a long time coming but we are making an effort to get caught up on blogging so better late than never right?  Rick and I shot this wedding together and had a great time!

To Jennifer and Chad, thank you so much for making us a part of your special day!

That’s sparkling cider!

Hey that’s me!

Michelle and Justin were married on October 2nd at the El Monte Sagrado Hotel in Taos, NM.  I’m doing all this a little bit backwards because I still need to blog Michelle and Justin’s Engagement Session which we shot at the Salman Raspberry Ranch in Las Vegas, NM and was also super cool!  Here’s a little story for you:  When Michelle originally called me to talk about her wedding I was sitting in my back yard editing some photos and watching the hummingbirds.  We spoke for a bit and I kept thinking that her name sounded familiar but I couldn’t quite figure it out.  As it turns out we went to high school together and even graduated the same year.  I will not divulge the year in order to protect the ages of the innocent.   Anyway, this wedding was fantastic and I was so pleased to be part of it!

To Michelle and Justin, thank you so much for making me a part of your special day!

Meet the Walker Family; Emily, Matt and Josie!  This is our 3rd consecutive year of photographing the Walkers and some of you may recognize Emily as Dr. Walker from the Albuquerque Cat Clinic. I’ve known Dr. Walker for 3 years and she saves my cat, Pumpkin Head, from certain disaster about 2 or 3 times a year.  I can attest from experience that there is no finer feline veterinarian in Albuquerque than Dr. Walker.  Take it from me, if you’ve got cats the only place to go for exceptional health care is the Albuquerque Cat Clinic.

Most of the photos in this blog entry are of Josie.  She is so cute and expressive!  I meant to only pick a handful of images and ended up with 20 but what the heck, the more the merrier right?  I also love her cute kitty outfit.

To the Walker Family, thank you so much for being repeat clients (and for saving my cat! )

I had the opportunity to photograph My and Ryan’s wedding last October.  From the day we met we had talked about doing a session with their motorcycles.  So… A year later we finally got a chance.  Here are you go. Enjoy!

I’ll start this entry off by saying, “welcome back.”, I say this for a few reasons;

1. I’m back, I’m actually here blogging rather than just working in the top-secret lab.  Dry Heat has big things in store for 2010, we’ve been like little mad scientists developing our new creations.

2. I welcome back Diane and Peter.  I meet Diane and Peter about 3 years ago when I photographed their wedding.  The world of social networking is such a wonderful way to reconnect.  It’s great to see these two again.  Their wedding was one that really stood out, I had so much fun with them and their family, truly great people.

3. Welcome back autumn.  I love fall in New Mexico, Balloon Fiesta, snow on the Sandia’s, chili roasting in parking lots and the spectacular colors in the bosque.  Diane, Peter, Corey and Zoey’s session in the bosque really seemed to capture New Mexico’s autumn.  A special thanks to Diane and Peter and their well-behaved dogs.  We made it through the entire session before any dogs made it in to the water.

Sara and Mike both work for the Forest Service so going to the Jemez with them is like traveling with an animated text book.  They know everything about the Jemez Mountains and we had so much fun with them on this session!  The actual wedding was September 26th at Madeline’s Place in Corrales (and I’ll get around to blogging that too) but this extra curricular field trip was two days later on the 28th.

To Sara and Mike, Thank you so much for this adventure!
