Yesterday I watched a very shocking movie. I’m not normally into horror films, but this one captivated me.

I watched An Inconvenient Truth.

It is sad to see what we have done to our world. The statistics and proof that Mr. Gore presents are incredible. It is a real issue, and one that should receive a lot more attention and action.

Our family started using energy efficient light bulbs and recycling about a year ago. They are small things that make a big difference. We should take care of the planet God gaves us because it is right, and…it’s the only home we have!

If the actual act of helping the planet isn’t strong enough to motivate you, think about it from a financial standpoint.

We used to average about 6-7 trash bags a week. Now, we have no more than 2 - the rest is recycled. That means we buy trash bags less often. The energy efficient light bulbs are a little more expensive when you first purchase them, but they last a very long time (some up to 5 years)!

You can find out more about An Inconvenient Truth, and what you CAN do to prevent global warming at Climate Crisis.

If you are interested in buying this movie (well worth it), you can get it used at Amazon for about $10.

Sundara has a new website!

The fabulous Ben from Real Alibi designed their new site and it looks incredible.

I love shooting at Sundara as it is the perfect outdoor venue for any wedding, and Patty’s hospitality makes it feel like home.

Many of my images are featured all throughout the site - it truly is a beautiful place!

Check out Sundara’s new website when you get a chance, and give Patty a call for your next event!

I received this information today from one of my clients, and want to share it with all of you.

My prayers are with everyone at Virginia Tech.

By now, most of us have seen the news.

I photograph a lot on Virginia Tech’s campus and especially at the Inn at Virginia Tech. Many of my clients are alumni of VT, and still have a lot of ties to the community. My heart goes out to the entire campus as they stuggle to cope with their loss.

My prayers are with every one of the victims’ families. It is a tragic day for our community.

Best Wishes,

I can’t believe it is April already! Things have been so incredibly busy lately and my blog is feeling neglected.

I’ll get some updates going soon, and there are two weddings coming up, so stay tuned!

Best Wishes,
