Vintage Bridal Photo Shoot

It's a bit of a long story so I'll try and paraphrase. Myself and several other creatives in the wedding industry and beyond decided to collaborate in designing a vintage style bridal photo shoot. The main objective was to create one-of-a-kind images showcasing the amazing talent that Northern Michigan has to offer.

The great minds behind the shoot were none other than Alicia Caldecott from A Day In May Event Planning and Design, Megan Scott from Hitch Design, Marla Courtney Wood fromFlowers By Marla Courtney Wood, Wendy Buhr-Dorman of Ella's Vintage and Retro Apparel, Shari Stelzer from Grace Salon, Cammie Buehler and Andy Schudlich of Epicure Catering were responsible for the stunning location Cherry Basket Farm. An extra high-five goes to Mike Gilger who is a photographer and new member of the Cory Weber Photography family. He is responsible for several of the images you see from this shoot.

With all the work that goes into maintaining a photography business, it's easy to lose sight of what it is that inspired me to become a photographer in the first place, making art! This project was revitalizing for me in many ways. It stretched me creatively as well as personally and I am eternally grateful to all those who contributed in bringing this all together.

Vintage Bridal Photo Shoot

Here is a sneak peek at one image from a vintage bridal photo shoot I photographed this week. I'm so excited to share more but this will have to do for now. There's a lot of explaining I have to do for this one!

My Family ROCKS!!!

A few days after the devastating earthquake in Haiti the Army's 82nd Airborne Divisions (my older brother's division) was sent to help distribute food and water, secure the airport and provide security for the Haitians. My family and I have been scouring the news waiting to catch a glimpse and finally it happened! Here is great photo of my older brother William distributing food to the obviously elated Haitian people. He looks like such a serious guy here but I'm sure he was just trying to gauge whether or not he was going to be overrun like Bob Barker! It's not everyday you can make so many people this happy and I am very proud of him and his wonderful wife and kids that have sacrificed so much to help these people in their time of need.

The other great news this week is that my little brother Ben will be arriving back in the States from his second tour in Iraq. It's emotionally exhausting to know that one of your family members is continually in harms way and I'm so happy he will be returning home safe and sound.

Marin is ONE!

USE CAUTION WHEN READING THIS. . . . . BLATANT PROUD DADDY TALK AHEAD!

Marin is one year old already! I am amazed

to see her walking across the house like a little autonomous person. On one hand it feels like only yesterday that she was totally dependent us for everything yet to see the things she is capable of doing, it's amazing that she is only one year old. I always knew I would love being a dad but I had no idea that I would be so head-over-heels in love with this little wee-nut.

Faith Elizabeth Allinger

I've got a new niece! Faith Elizabeth Allinger is her name and she is soooo adorable (of course I'm biased). Such a quiet and content little girl. She was very cooperative during her first photo shoot. For her parent's sake I hope she keeps it up!

Me, Myself, and I

It's always weird for me to be on the other side of the camera but I needed a new photo of myself to use in advertising and on the web. Today I finally had time for a self-portrait (camera on a tri-pod). Here is the new image to be splashed all over the internet and potentially some magazine ads.
