jamie + john

(see this wedding on facebook HERE)

i know it's been a while since my last update. i've been busy plotting to take over the world... er... i mean, photographing assignments. and changing identities - up until now, i was shooting under the name "halo photographic" but decided to start working under my own name. hence, the new site and new blog, which will now house all of my wedding, portrait, and other related items. building this new empire is a lot of work, mind you, so blogging has taken a backseat in the meantime. to tide my adoring public over, here's one of the weddings that i shot the other month (yeah, i know, bad of me to wait so long to get the preview up here).

jamie and john were married in a wedding ceremony just down the road from my house at the historic chapel of st. rose of lima parish, with a reception that followed at the nearby gaithersburg hilton. we had lovely weather - not so unbearably hot as it sometimes gets during the summer months. check it out:

hora! this is one of my favorite wedding reception traditions to photograph because there's so much excitement and joy:

congratulations you two!
