i created timwill.com myself this past year and for a beginner, it's not that bad. however...it's in need of some major upgrades so i've called in a big-gun to help me out. a good friend of mine and future client (next month, woohoo) is going to be modifying the site in a major way. So stay tuned for some serious face lifts to timwill.com...
NEW PRODUCT!!!
personalized wedding sites for EVERYONE.
sarah and i are getting pretty close to the end of planning our wedding and one of the major things on my list was creating a website for all of our guests providing them with ALL of the info: gift registries, time lines, contact info, directions, hotels....EVERYTHING.
after i finished it i realized that there are a lot of people out there who'd LOVE something like this but who don't have the time to sit around and lose sleep over learning these really complicated website programs! so we're going to be offering _ _ _ _ _ (insert a cool title) i haven't thought of a cool title yet but there's one out there. if you have an idea put it in the comment box because i could use some help.
SO: we'll be offering personalized super-sweet websites to our clients starting at $490. it's possible they'll find their way into our higher end wedding packages in the near future as well.
these sites will be an incredible way to let your guests know all of the information about your wedding. also, most stores where brides register host an online mall of all of the couple's selections. with your personalized websites your guests won't even need to log in to shop for gifts! they can order on line and ship directly to your home!

stunning/amazing/incredible new client sites
All of our client interface is brand-spankin-new. Each client receives a slideshow of the best images from their wedding and a full shopping cart gallery including all of their images. Before now, the different sites were un-linked but we've just added a stylish splash page that links to both sites very quickly. Each client needs only one word to view all of their images rather than two separate web addresses and passwords. MUCH nicer.
Also, we've switched to an incredibly smooth new shopping cart gallery with pre-loaded images so there's no more opening images separately each time you see one you want to look at.
If you'd like to see a demo you can check a mock-up version of sarah and me. Click here .
here's what they look like:

i am finally getting a chance to put up a post about this amazing couple's wedding from a few weeks ago. this was my second stop on the road-trip up north: New Jersey. thanks so much to abri and ryan for the amazing photo-ops :) njoy
amazing view from 16 (or something) floors up
kayak-ing
i learned to kayak yesterday. (although...the guy in the picture isn't me. he is dave. i'll be honest, i thought it was just a sport for outdoor fanatics but it was a really great time. you have to wear a helmet and sometimes you think you're going to drown but it's still pretty enjoyable. anyways, the recent weddings are coming soon so check back.
Hello(newblog)
we've got a new blog.
amber + dave
well, back from a crazy trip. three weddings and 2000 miles in one week. ohio-jersey-new york.
i'm just now getting to my blog posts but i think it's worth the wait. these past few weddings have been some of my coolest so far.
so: getting caught up. my first wedding of the week was in Ohio. i was blessed to be able to photograph dave and amber tying the knot. they're two really cool people and they were so easy to photograph. thanks to dave and amber for the amazing photos. i think a few of these will definitely find their way into my portfolio!
new number.
Hey hey. To anyone who needs to reach me, my new number is 803.341.8857
I switched providers recently and I can't tell you how much of a pain in the arse it was. 4 days of sitting on hold and dealing with supreme incompetence. I know there are times in my life when I was angrier but I really can't remember when.
I tried to keep my old number but it just wasn't in the cards. SO. New number. Make a note.

i had the pleasure of shooting these 4 sisters when i was in michigan last week. what a sweet group of girls!!
we had a couple hours to walk around Michigan State University and we came up with some really cool locations.
I hope you enjoy the images.
By the way: I've been doing incredibly well with keeping up with the blog...so...I think that deserves a little bit of credit. Hopefully enough credit to let me coast for this next week. I'm heading up to Pittsburgh to photograph and ordination then 'm going on a little road-trip with a couple of my buddies. A bachelor party of sorts. ...except none of the weird stuff. Just some camping and sight seeing. So...I should have some good photos for you guys in about a week.

here are a few shots from michigan after a long day of wedding planning.
still holding on to the romance ;)
kristen + bryan
here's an example of a wedding where everything goes smoothly. wonderful people who are very in love. they get married on a beautiful day with some of their best friends. wonderful food, fireworks that put any 4th of July celebration to shame, dancing, and a grand exit with 2 foot tall sparklers.
not a bad way to celebrate two people coming together.
kristen and bryan: best of luck to you both! i hope you love your pictures as much as i do!
you have to love these summertime/atlanta weddings. right after the ceremony i found the whole wedding party camped out in this giant refrigerator.
yes. these are real fireworks.
