And time is running out! (Catch-Up/Rewind- Kristen Miller Photography)
 |
| child photographer Pittsburgh wedding event Kristen Miller Photography |
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
-Albert Camus
I am running out of time for this 2010 Rewind! The USB port on my (POS) laptop has not been recognizing the flash drive (on which I keep my pictures) for some reason, so I am using another computer to get this last round in. I can't believe its already New Year's Eve. The days seem to fly a bit faster when surrounded by loved ones, good food, and general holiday lackidaisicalness. (Yes, its a word. I checked. See also: leisureliness, do-nothingness, inertness, langouressness.) Well, I have a few minutes left. Here goes.... Here's a bit more from the summer time. Ah, I remember that season!

(More) 2010 Rewind/Catch-up: Dana & Marybeth's wedding
“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.”
Listening to: Landon Pigg & Mae Whitman's "Gardenia"
Reading: When You Are Engulfed in Flames, by David Sedaris
Playing more catch-up. Here are some photographs from Dana & Marybeth's late summer wedding. Gorgeous couple, gorgeous families (if I do say so myself) and a gorgeous backdrop. I couldn't have asked for a better shoot. Enjoy!

| I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photographing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges. ~William Albert Allard, "The Photographic Essay" |

Photographs that transcend but do not deny their literal situation appeal to me. ~Sam Abbel |

| All photographs are there to remind us of what we forget. In this - as in other ways - they are the opposite of paintings. Paintings record what the painter remembers. Because each one of us forgets different things, a photo more than a painting may change its meaning according to who is looking at it. ~John Berger |

| If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine | |

| I'm not a particularly verbose person. I think that's why I like taking pictures... they speak for themselves. ~Jeb Dickerson |

| I never question what to do, it tells me what to do. The photographs make themselves with my help. ~Ruth Bernhard |

| Perishability in a photograph is important in a picture. If a photograph looks perishable we say, "Gee, I'm glad I have that moment." ~John Loengard, "Pictures Under Discussion" |
