In motion









It looks as if another blog draught has crept in,
my apologies for those who frequent here.
In the month and ½ of cyberspace silence I’ve been to
Houston TX for a commercial shoot, Tricia safely
returned from her writers workshop in Tuscany, where she found plenty of soul food
for her writing as well as amazing local fare for her belly.. Oh yeah, we've moved to a
wonderful house in Bexley, OH,( how do you like that for motion).
The boys love it and though change is, well change, it’s beginning
to feel like home. So lots going on and lots a great images of
our wonderful clients to share so stay tuned. To start here’s
Catherine and Jeff. You may have seen their engagement session
on this blog under “lost and found. ” Well the circle is complete and so are they.

Thank you so much Cathy and Jeff for your complete graciousness, love and beauty together.

God Bless

sons






For the last ten days the boys and I have been on our own without Tricia.
She is currently in Tuscany Italy on an working organic farm attending a writers workshop that's running there.
For Tricia this is the perfect vacation.
We all have missed her terribly but take much comfort knowing what a fantastic time she's having.
Maybe she'll grace this blog with some highlights and insights from her trip, let's hope;
Tricia's a bit blog shy. Anyways, this has been a sweet time with my sons. They continue to amaze me
with sweet wonder and sheer will. Their mother makes it all look so easy in the day to day and I have
new respect and appreciattion for all that she does for us. Here are some images of the lads
for you my globe trotting wife, check out Atticus George Keels the one man band!

Yes














I want very much to do this story justice so please bear with me if this goes on. About 2 month ago my good friend Drew approached with an idea. He wanted to know if I would be willing to photograph he and his lady Candis in what would be a pre-engagement session . He was actually taking me up on a suggestion that I had made to Candis a month earlier about photographing the two of them. The background was I had observed them one day in our church (we all go the same church) full of obvious love and adoration for one another; it was completely compelling and truly beautiful. So Drew was looking to make the shoot happen but with a twist, he was going to ask Candis to marry him at some point during the session. Background on Candis, not only do we go to church together but Candis also works at our studio as the best graphic designer in the city IMO not to mention Tricia and I both love her silly. Everyday coming to the studio was challenging because this was to be a complete surprise for her. Long story short it was a surprise; Drew planned well and managed to keep is head though is heart was about to blow up and Candis said yes again and again.
So what began with dancing turned to tears of joy and then dancing again!

Thank you Drew and Candis for allowing me the complete privilege of being apart of your engagement, it meant so much to be there.
God Bless you both… it seems that he has.

Northern Lights










I had sometime to go with 3 other gentlemen (my uncle Rusty, cousin Hunter and friend Tim) on a canoe trip
to Quetico Canada. It is in my opinon some of the most beautiful
and unspoiled country to be found. Serene, quiet and soul cleansing
to be sure.

Enjoy

Romance






Kristin and Patrick were like characters
from a Jane Austin novel.
He was her handsome and
considerate gentleman and she his beautiful
and cultivated lady.
It was great to be completely disregarded in the wake
of their obvious love for each other.

Thank you both for a wonderful day.

bling!











When I first met Zeta and Jeff, I felt like a party had just arrived in my studio,
Seperatley they are both extermely engaging but together they are electrical.
They, as well as I, enjoyed every second of their day.

What fun
