Qi Gym/Seasons Fit

I've blogged about Seasons Fit before and I've mentioned how Qi Athletic Club & Seasons Fit combined earlier this fall. Well I captured some great shots for their website & promo materials.My favorite class is Spin-Yoga. You can catch me in Dawnelle's 7am class on Tuesday and Thursday and Raven's noon on Friday.

30 minutes of intense spinning...
followed with 30 minutes of refreshing yoga...The gym portion of Qi is wonderfully equipped and they offer personal training with some enthusiastic, educated and super friendly trainers! I'm getting a great taste of these machines while I'm doing the Boot Camp for the next 4 weeks - whew! That's a kick in the butt right there - 6am on Tues, Weds & Thurs I meet up with 20 other work-out junkies and do crazy circuit training drills for 60 minutes...love it!

Photographer Retreat at Wash Park

Hello friends! I'm Jason Mraz! Er, I mean Ryan. Kellie and I nerded out at the park last week. Here are some photos of the fun!


I'm so glad we caught the LAST day before the leaves fell!



Who knew Wash Park could be mistook for Eastern Europe?





Still can't get wildlife photography out of my system.

Nina & Gabe's Wedding

When Nina and I had her Pre-Wedding meeting she said to me "Be sure to get some shots of my shoes...and my sisters shoes...you're gonna love 'em!" Well she was right, can we say C-U-T-E?!?!?!!? This is only one shot of literally 23 that I took of these adorable shoes...Mount Carmel Catholic Church - Nina & Gabe's families have a lot of history at this church. Most of their family members were baptized, confirmed & married at this gorgeous church located in the Italian district...one of my favorite Italian restaurants, Pagliacci's, is not far from here...yum!
Their gorgeous reception was The Lakewood Country Club. Despite the gray sky & chily weather, we got some great shots outdoors on the green.




These kids know how to break it down on the dance floor...I even joined in for a little bit!

Beautiful bride, beautiful church, beautiful sky...it was an amazing day. Ryan & I had so much fun with this fun group.




Ryan captured some GREAT moments during the whole day - here are a couple highlights from the reception:
We were lucky enought to have some time to steal away Joshua & Cynthia for a quick portrait session at Terrace Garden at Dove Valley...the chemistry between these two is amazing!

Dance Party!

Andy photographs the photographers

Tonight my long-time friend (I pretty much consider him like a brother) came over to my studio to do some headshots. Andy just finished a 3 year run as Sky in Broadway's Mama Mia! I am so proud of him...I remember singing with him in the Thunder Ridge Middle School Choir and now he's a professinal performer! WOW!!!

Ryan and I were set up and ready to shoot right when Andy whips out his slick new iphone and snapped our portrait

Stay tuned for the latest and greatest of Andy's hesdshots ;)
