May Desktop Images

Personal Uncategorized

Wedding season is upon us! May is officially my busiest month this year and for good reason – everything is lush and green. My daffodils are gone but irises are coming out and the whole area just breathes. Hopefully we’ll have more than a handful of days of that spring perfection before balmy summer comes along. And my couples hope so too. You’ll be seeing some incredible weddings and engagement sessions this season – I’ve got them all over Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey. And that’s only in the next two months!

I’m starting this month strong at the Broad Street Run. Are you going? Perhaps you’ll see me there as you’re eating my dust!

Every month I feature new images for download for you to use as your desktop background. Click to download it and see it at its huge size and resolution.


Please note these images are made available for personal use only.

After all, I don’t see why I am always asking for private, individual, selfish miracles when every year there are miracles like white dogwood.

This was the view from by back porch.Not five minutes after returning, we heard this quick spattering on the roof. Emma and I ran to the window to see hail coming down and pingi ...

Photography 101: Kiss My Aspect Ratio
This will be my first installment of Photography 101 and I hope it won't scare you away, but I'm going to talk a bit about aspect ratios. Before I get into that, let's start at the beginning. (cue cheesy flashback transition.)When you look through your camera, the shape you see is this:This is the typical ratio of all 35mm cameras out there. Quite specifically, this ratio is 2x3.So you take loads of pictures and you go to get some of these images printed. 4"x6" is the most popular size and it's a good thing, because they conform to the same 2x3 ratio – so you don't lose any bit of the picture.But what if you want a 5"x7" or 8"x10" print? ...

Destination Wedding in Italy | Castello di Vincigliata | MINE!
Many of you have asked about MY wedding.  Well, it was beautiful and amazing and I would never in a million years do it that way again!  Little Miss Type A, professional wedding photographer holding a destination wedding in a country I had never visited, speaking a language I don’t know, on a continent an ocean away…  Yeah, it was stressful but so, so fabulous.  (And I admit it was pretty cool to say I was having a destination wedding in Tuscany, Italy.) Here is my story of the day and some of the snapshots from myself and our 25 guests.  You can see the professional pictures (by the oh-so-talented Alison Conklin Photography team of Alison ...
