I love autumn time. The leaves change colors, it's not too hot and not too cold. Growing up it meant digging potatoes and getting ready to snowmobile. Autumn almost passed me by this year without a single picture of changing colors so I went for a ride on my longboard around my neighborhood and snapped a few quick pictures.
So it's been a while since I've posted any photos here on my blog, lots of pictures on Facebook but none on here. Ashley asked me if I would be interested in doing some family pictures for them. I was a little hesitant because I haven't done many family pictures and their little girl is only 8 months old, the youngest I've ever had a chance to photograph. Madison did amazing though and here are some of the results!
A few years ago I had the opportunity to photography my grandmother's funeral. It was a rewarding experience because it allowed me to capture a small portion of the events so that family out of the area could have a small glimpse of the events and be able to be connected even though they were unable to attend. This last fall my grandfather passed away and I again found myself photographing during the viewing and the burial. My grandfather served in the Army during World War II and was buried with military honors. This was a moving experience for me as I have long respected those who serve our country and defend our freedoms. To all those who wear or have worn the uniform with honor I salute you and thank you.
