June Saturdays

©TimeLine Media - wedding photography

It’s just that time of year. For wedding photographers especially, their Saturdays are full in the middle of their busy season! There is nothing like have a wedding in June. I have photographed and assisted in photographing several weddings in the DC Area. At this time, the city landmarks will be dotted with brides and grooms. While they are out a photographer is directing them to pose, and look. The photographer is attempting to make some nice photos while trying to minimize the tourists in the background. Given that this is such a photogenic city they have made a great choice of location!

Wedding Photography

It is nice to be part of their big day, and a responsibility that I took for granted before being the person behind the camera. These are the photos that are looked at by multiple generations. In that case, these photos are the first family heirloom. Additionally, these are the items that are sought after when natural disasters take other material possessions. They will survive long after the flowers and cake. These thoughts keep me sharp throughout the day, and humble me every time someone asks me to photograph their wedding.

Mother’s Day

After the past few days, this is the best weather day we have had in a bit! Perfect time for Mother’s Day to celebrate your mom, grandma, great-grandma (I can think of at least one) and share the day with her if you are so blessed. I am getting ready to head out to see mine, so this will not be a long post. Wishing all the mothers reading this post a Happy Mother’s Day!

By all means, I am privileged to have known so many amazing mothers. My mom emigrated from the Philippines. Since she arrived here, she has been motherly to many of her patients. Given that I am an only child, she had plenty of time to keep her eye on me!

Additionally, I see other examples of caring, involved mothers from my cousins and other family members. In like fashion, my cousins have similar stories of their mothers guiding them as we grow up. Even though I did not grow up with them every day, I still have the same reverence and respect for what they do. Undoubtedly raising our generation could not have been easy!

Family Portraits

It is another beautiful day in the Washington, DC Area. I will be heading out to assist another photographer friend with a wedding today. So this is just a quick post. The nice weather puts people in the mood for photos and getting families together at this time is the perfect time to update family portraits!

With school ending soon, and grand plans being made for the summer and fall, this is a great time to make new photos. A few families have asked me to take their photos at both indoor and outdoor locations. These were taken at a beautiful park in Ashburn, Virginia. There are expecting mothers, high school seniors, and anniversaries coming up where these photos have been presented as gifts, or just hung in the home as a way to show changes in families over the years.

Overall, I consider myself lucky to be able to do this, and I hope to do this more for my own family. I do know a few photographers that I can count on to do a good job – maybe we can exchange! 🙂 Hope you have a great Saturday!
