...for awhile at least. My kids are in high school and need more time to spend with them. Concentrating on portraits now. Weddings were eating up all my free time.

Anyway I was very lucky to have an amazing couple for my last one.

    Great shot, the "industry" will miss you! It's funny how the younger people always think "oh, being a wedding photographer must be such a glamorous job, I wanna get rich and famous like so-and-so!" ...And then eventually we realize that weddings is NOT the most lucrative industry in photography at ALL, and that if you count out the dollars versus hours, it's so much better to be shooting portraits or commercial work etc.

    Just an observation, sorry to side-track! Be sure to pop your head in every now and then!

    Take care,

    Well, I live in Orange County. A LOT of mis-informed and entitled people around here. :-P
