Breaux Vineyard Wedding (Loudoun County Virginia)

Breaux Vineyard in Loudoun County Virginia is one of the premier wineries in the Washington DC area. They recently added a very nice event building to their property, setting them apart from many other wineries in the area. Breaux did a great job hosting Saturday's wedding of Marty and Cheryl. Here are a few images from Saturday. Click on image to enlarge.

Costa Rica

I recently spent a week doing a corporate photo shoot in Costa Rica. We stayed at the Guanacaste J.W. Marriott. Here are a few images around the property, and a few off property.

Naples Florida Pier at Sunset

I was recently down in Florida and revisited the Naples Pier for some sunset photos. The first night gave me some great cloud formations, adding some welcomed drama to the sunset. The next night I went back with a tripod, wanting to take some long time exposures. The clouds were pretty non-existent that night, so the sky was not as great. Shooting longer time exposures softens the water, giving it almost a painted look. I'm happy with both images, although they are quite different. This is the kind of image that works well with all kinds of digital filters and effects, each one giving the image a very different look. These two images were mostly just enhanced and corrected in Adobe Lightroom, with mostly just some changes done to the exposure and white balance, with some added dodging and burning.
