Our Engagement Session

Yes at long last we finally got around to doing our own engagement session. Truly difficult as the studio is attached to our house, and I only own around 7 cameras of various shapes and sizes. Here is a sampling of our very serious session that should set the tone for our wedding this fall. The camera featured in this shoot is my Graflex Anniversary model 4"x5" press camera from 1943. I do shoot this regularly with film when it is not a prop and may post some of those images in the near future. I just need to find an underwater housing for it now!

Grady Hester H+1

Yes more baby photos of the GQ, these were taken a little more than an hour after his birth. Not many children have a personal photographer, he will have a well documented life. Ladies beware, if he is this cute at 1 hour you don't stand a chance at his first Bday. Congratulations again Marty and Erin you have a handsome son.

First Day

Welcome to the world Grady Quentin Hester! 7lbs 5oz 4.3.10 at 4:40pm. Congratulations to Erin and Marty, what a handsome little man. He didn't wake up for photos today but was very alert yesterday when we saw him.

Nice Office

The 210th Rescue Squad in Anchorage are the crews that save people like me when things go really wrong. Hopefully the first shoot of many over the summer time. If you go in the backcountry or the sandbox these guys are your lifeline.
