Florida beaches make great pics!!

June 10th, 2011

Florida beaches make great pics for weddings and vacation photos.  My family went to Holmes Beach, FL back in May to celebrate my brother Matt’s wedding.  While our whole family was down there we decided to take a family photo.  So early one morning we rounded up the troops and headed to the beach in coordinated attire, thanks SJ for the suggestions.   We took several photos to make sure we didn’t get any walkers in the background.    And here are the results of much patience and a beautiful family!

FYI… Drury Studio will travel to Florida for your destination wedding or family portraits!  I highly recommend Florida for a vacation as well!

The Baby Whisperer…

June 3rd, 2011

Since the beginning of Drury Studio my wife, Sarah Jane, has helped me on location with the babies I photograph.  She has an amazing ability to hold them tight and get them to calm down when the fussy.  I love to watch my wife’s mothering abilities rise to the surface and bring peace to any shoot.   I love having her on location with me and  I’m not the only one that enjoys her presence.  Here is what one family said about SJ, “Tim’s wife, Sarah Jane, was instrumental in helping us capture some great shots of Nathan throughout his first year!  She was never shy about making goofy faces or crazy noises to get our little guy to smile.  She also served as a happy carrier of blankets, toys and other props as we changes scenes at our venues.  She did everything with a smile and definitely made the sessions enjoyable and easy!”

At our last baby session I stumbled on a new pose for babies.  In the process I had this odd moment where I realized my wife was actually one of the props.  SJ got a chance to hold little Hudson in  a blanket and allow me to photograph him sleeping.  The follow pictures are proof that she does an excellent job as a backdrop/assistant and the baby whisperer!  Notice how sound a sleep Hudson is in the second photograph.

Sarah Jane thanks for working beside me and helping me capture wonderful photos for parents!  You truly are a gift to me.   Thank you for being the Baby Whisperer!
