November 22, 2012 - Thanksgiving Weekend at Hocking Hills

Another year, another amazing get-together in a not-so-rustic cabin nestled in the Hocking Hills southeast of Columbus, Ohio. 31 people total made the trip, and as usual I assigned myself the task of documenting the weekend and trying to capture the variety of personalities in attendance. Cards were played and we ran out of whiskey a few times, and other than the fact that SOMEone has to lose "The Game" between Michican and Ohio State, good times were had by all for all four days we spent there. We went a day early to get out of town as a family and go to the Columbus Zoo.

November 18, 2012 - Tyler-Moran Wedding

I had the distinct privilege of shooting Mike and Meghan's wedding without actually having to shoot it all myself. I worked as a third-string fringe photographer and enjoyed the perks of being an honorary groomsman and Moran after his family took me in as one of my own. I almost re-wrote the definition of wedding crasher and had a blast, and hopefully helped the couple remember the day. The full set of images can be seen here.

August 11, 2012 - Polen/Calderwood Wedding

I decided to bring my camera with a 50mm f/1.8 lens and a flash to a friend's wedding, even though I was an invited guest and not an official photographer. My first self-assigned task was to shoot the group who was stuck at the base of the mountain waiting out a thunderstorm, which caused the ceremony to run about an hour late. The photographer they hired took off pretty early and I tried to supplement her coverage, including a fun trip to the base area bar "9280 Taphouse" for the after-party. Full gallery here.
