Shoot Camp

If you own a DSLR and still don't know how to use it you need to sign up for ShootCamp.  We had an amazing time this Saturday with our second official ShootCamp.  It's so much fun teaching and hanging out with people that our passionate about photography.  In case you missed the memo, ShootCamp is a 'hands on' photography class designed for beginners and taught by myself, Shea Halliburton, and Sarah Gilliam.  ShootCamp students walk away from the day with a smile on their face and the ability to shoot in Manual mode.  Check out our latest video from our last ShootCamp.

Ashley + Dustin = St.Louis Wedding

It is difficult to express in words how much I love Ashley and her family...which now includes Dustin too. Some of you, but not all of you reading this, know that I spent my high school years living in South Africa. Most people assume that my parents were missionaries. X My dad worked for SBC which is now AT&T and when they invested in Telkom over in South Africa my parents thought it would be a good idea to move over there. They were right, but that is a different blog post. All four years of high school I would come back to St. Louis for the 3 months of my summer break. For no good reason, except out of the kindness of their heart they decided to take me into their family and give me a place to live for the summer...every summer for four years. They would probably even let me live their now if I needed to. Ashley's older brother and I have been great friends since 8th grade and he was my way into the Sewell family. I even made the cut to be part of the family vacation tradition of going to Jekyll Island, GA with the extended family so I really do feel like I am part of this family. When you experience unmerited grace and hospitality you are forever grateful. I love this family with all of my heart and getting to photograph this wedding was a true blessing. For the record...Dustin, I love you too.
