Captured at Medina Lake (when it was full), this is the lovely Lindsay at her parents back yard wedding three years ago. I was looking through my archive and came across this shot. Funny how time slips by and images you missed the first time seem to have improved. Maybe it’s just me getting older!…
This click caught my attention as I was going through Sara and Cody’s wedding day and you can see the original post here. However, it wasn’t posted at the time and since then I’ve grown very fond of it. Evokes a real feeling of romance and a fleeting kiss. One of my favorites from last month….
A favorite from March 2013. I love this for numerous reasons. Primarily, I shoot to tell the story of the day and part of this is to find details without setting up a shot. This includes, no directing or promoting by the photographer. My philosophy (yes, quite shocking for folks who know me but I…

This is a really nice picture 
This is typical of my humor! Taken last Friday at Sara and Cody’s wedding rehearsal with my Leica M9. What did they see? Well, it was a snow owl up in the canopy (I think) and according to Michelle Moon – Director of Special Events at Witte Museum, is a regular resident. Hope you like…
In preparation of my upcoming mini workshop, I wanted to find an image that was a good example of anticipating the moment. This was it, with only a second to capture. I knew I had it as the mother and bride Sarah share a tender moment in a crowded room. This was an emotionally charged moment….
Picture of the week. My ongoing personal project is photographing my kids:-) Here’s one of my daughter, Lily at the Kiddie Park shot with my Leica M9. I was looking for unusual composition, layering with the trees and, well, something busy. I really like it. Who says you can’t shoot fast action with a Leica…

Thanks, Bruno.
Ok. Another top favorite of 2012. Who wants to see more fave wedding clicks from 2012? Let me know. Love the light, composition and subject matter and just does it for me. Captured with a Leica M9 in Austin at the lovely Green Pastures.

Thanks, Mike.
Going back to 2012 and a few of my favorite images. This one sticks out as just a great moment captured between mother and daughter, Anna, Taken just before she met her husband Jose for a ‘first look’. Captured with the Leica M9 and a summilux 35mm.
Loved this shot even more after returning to a couple of months later. And so, it’s my picture of the week. I captured the photo as the little boy stood holding held his fathers hand during the ceremony. I was right behind him and is one of a series of lovely little shots. This one…

Oh, thank you Keith. You’re so kind. One of my top favorites.
Sometimes I’ll return to images shot months or years ago and see them in a new light. As time has moved forward, I can separate myself from the day that enables me to see some images differently. Like this one of Xenia as Fred twirled her on the dance floor. Yes, it’s not technically perfect, but…
Lindsay Evans Nefford - Thank you Philip! And thank you so much for all of the amazing shots from our wedding – what great fun memories!
