Raiya's Birthday Party

When Sukhi & Gurpreet reached out to me on capturing their daughter Raiya's 2nd birthday; I knew it would be my toughest challenge yet.  Not backing down to any challenges thrown my way, I said yes.  Sukhi & Gurpreet decorated the house like a living safari; I was floored at the attention to detail they put in to make this birthday extra special for Raiya.  Sukhi, told me she wanted my images to tell the story of Raiya's 2nd birthday so that one day when she is older she can see what they had done for her.  Here is Raiya's birthday story..........

Art In The Park 2017

This year I was re-invited back to photograph Art in The Park 2017 for the Columbia County Arts Counsil here in Augusta, GA.  Sadly, the festivities were cut short by a massive thunderstorm that followed shortly after the morning performances had finished.  Photographing Art in The Park is completely volunteer work and is my way of giving back to the community.  I was just informed today that an official rain-date has been announced for Oct 14th and again, I have been asked to photograph the event.  In the meantime, have a look at some of the photos from the performances that day!

Art in The Park 2016

Hello ya'll!  I guess I should start saying "Ya'll" now that I have been living in the South for almost 2 years.....maybe not? hahaha.  I am still a Northern City boy at heart, always will be!

So almost a year ago I volunteered my photography services for a yearly event called "Art in The Park".  It is hosted by the amazing people over at the Columbia County Arts Counsel.  Why am I blogging about this now? Well, I never got a chance to and I took so many photos that day that I found it so hard to pick which I would ever show.  But, as I type this we are getting hit with a massive storm and for some reason I found it fitting to blog about it.  So I bunkered down and chose which photos I would share with you all.  

The good news, I have been asked to volunteer again for "Art in The Park" 2017!  Like most photographers out there; we love getting paid to do what we love.  However, I must admit there is nothing better than volunteering!  I can't wait to capture this years event and hopefully I don't take a full year to blog about it!  As my favorite NFL Insiders at ESPN would say "C'mon MAAAAAAN!"
