Middleburg Point to Point

Another beautiful Sunday! The wedding I photographed as an assistant yesterday went well. As can be seen, I do not do as many weddings comparatively to the start of my career. When you do not do it consistently, it takes a little more out of you. Today, I’ll recover a little for sure. There was a lot of lifting and walking yesterday! Hopefully, I was useful as an assistant and second shooter.

With the Kentucky Derby run yesterday, I was reminded of our day at the Middleburg Hunt Point to Point last weekend. Besides the horse racers and tailgaters, there were also lots of other animals in the crowd enjoying the festivities. The horses were not the only animals roaming the park on Sunday. Being a large outside park, pets were welcome to attend. Many dogs came to visit, some of them even dressed for the Best Bow Tie and Best Bonnet contests. The owners were proud to show off their costumes and introduce the crowds to their costumed contenders.

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!

Middleburg Tail Gate

What a gorgeous day outside today! I have a great assignment on a day like today – some family photographs. It is definitely a change from the weather of last Sunday. I have finished the edits from the Middleburg Hunt Point to Point, and have found a few images out of the drizzly day at the races.

These were taken while I was following the judges as they made their way by all the tailgaters as they had their cars and tables setup to host guests. The effort that went into these displays was amazing – so many colors of decorations, plates of food, and plenty of drinks to pass around! The judges had to discuss before declaring their winners. It had to have been a tough decision process.

Here are some of my favorites from following them around. Although it was a highly contested prize, everyone that participated were in good spirits. All in all the colorful dresses, hats, and ties brought a pop to a very gray day. Have a great weekend everyone!
