Wow, what a glorious weekend. If any of you blog regulars find me complaining about the weather this year, please remind me of the past 2 weeks. I don’t think it could have possibly been nicer for either of my shoots and today is looking like more of the same! On Saturday, I went to...
Love this engagement shoot! stunning images!
That flare in BW looks great!
I love the photos of Mai. She was one of my students when I was a Guidance Counselor in Lancaster. I love all the fun shots of her and her husband.
Chicken/rooster silhouette- great idea :)
I shot some photos for Kate a few months ago and was happy to get back out to her parent’s house for some more this week. The weather was GORGEOUS and since I had a cancelled shoot, what better time? Here’s a few quick edits to get up before Easter! Hope you all have a...

Your favorite is my favorite. Love it. Love how you didn’t over retouch out the “blemishes” – great shot.
Wow! Great set of pictures. Kept thinking they couldn’t get better and then I would scroll down and they would.
Heyooo! It’s Friday, and the start of a wonderfully exciting weekend for us. Hopefully all ya’ll had a great week! Yesterday I got a chance to head out and shoot with Andrea, who I photographed last year with her then boyfriend (now fiance) Bill. I’ve been so thankful for this great weather (at least ‘great’...

Tony knows light.
I’m with Lindsay, Tilt-Shift fund starts today.
That’s it. I’m starting a Tilt-Shift fund for myself.
AMAZING…as always, Tony!! looks like it was a good decision to grab those shots at the end…everyone seems to love them :) also…i forgot about a 100 year old oak tree thats there…HUGE branches that come down onto the ground, could have had some beautiful shots there..next time =)
It was worth it for the dress (then again I wasn’t the one out in the cold) – it really made some of those outdoor shots. I love the one in front of the barn. And hey – if Im not mistaken those are my boots!:) Looks like they’ve gotten into some of your photos before me! Good to say a quick “hey” to you yesterday Tony!
Oh yeah and Andrea… you look hot too. Favorite one is second to last in the hay.
Yeah Yeah Yeah! Sooo jealous. Tony… your fan group grows by the day out in Pittsburgh. Blogstalking is now a past time.
There’s nothing more exhilerating and tiring than a busy wedding season. On the flip side, there’s nothing more boring than sitting in my office catching up during the cold winter. However, winter does allow for a few things I haven’t done in months. Namely, checking out some other photographers’ work, getting inspired by new ideas,...

I know Nate, and I have pictures (and video) of him in that Speedo! You made a good choice.

Tony! I actually prefer the slideshow. Scrolling is ok but everytime I try to scroll and the pictures aren’t done loading it keeps pushing the page up and I lose my spot! But if you keep it scrolling, I won’t stop stalking so do what you like best! Also, if you’re ever looking to do an experiment shoot like this again and need somebody, let me know. Always nice to update my pictures!
Love them! Particularly numbers 4 & 11 – the light and the color are so brilliant together.
Georgeous model!
Thanks everybody! I guess the conclusion is that everyone likes the photos and hates the slideshow… Hahaha. Noted!
What a fierce set of photos. Your model is gorgeous…hard to believe she is an amateur!!! I dig a combo of scroll and then slideshow. I have to admit though I rarely sit throw the slideshow on other photogs websites; BUT I do dig this slideshow set up.
Definitely prefer scroll. Great pictures!
Great slideshow Tony! However, I’d suggest you do the hybrid: favorites in large images and the rest in a slideshow. The reason being that Google will have an easier time finding the images and indexing them when people do a local images-based search.
Srolling for me Tony! Keep up the killer work man.
Beautiful slide…and work. :)
Love your work! I prefer to scroll through all of the images. I can’t view them one the iphone with a slideshow. Personally I would like to scroll through all instead of just favorites.
I had to leave my google reader blog stalking to come post. I was going to say that I wouldn’t be able to view the slideshow on google reader, but all the pictures showed up in my google reader as individual pictures. So now that I’m at your site on my iPhone, i can’t view all the photos. I am not a fan of the slideshows myself. I rarely look at them on other photography blogs.
you are awesome. Love the slideshow but only saw it on the desktop not on the iphone…..that would be my ONLY complaint….these are just beautiful!
Beautiful!
SCROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
a really lovely shoot… beautiful images & subject! i prefer to scroll
I do like the slideshow, especially if the speed is able to be controlled by the viewer. Great shots & she is beautiful!
My only other question is….why didn’t you choose Nate?? ;)
Hey Tony,
This is my first time commenting, but I am always looking for your posts on Fred and get excited when I see your name. I love your style. I have been shooting for a year and have learnt so much from you and others and I want to take that opportunity to thank you for sharing with other artists. I really enjoyed the slide show, sometimes I scroll through pictures too quickly and I miss things. So this way really makes you savour every image.
Nice!
She is GORGEOUS!! You are lucky to have such good looking friends ;) As for the slideshow, I think I prefer to scroll through. Great work Tony!
I have the biggest smile on my face! I LOVE the photos of my sissy! I have soooo many favorites.
In regard to the slideshow, I always skip past them on blogs. I am just very impatient and like to be able to scroll through images…
Oh, tilt shift. (right?) These are just lovely. The tops of the trees in that one diptych are mesmerizing. What’s interesting is b/c I subscribe to your blog via google reader, they always come out for me to scroll through. The slide show apparently doesn’t translate into Reader. Interesting.
I prefer to scroll. Looks like you had some fun with the new toy.
Watch out world, Tony got a new toy! I think the ones like #4 where the out of focus areas are used more subtly are strongest. Awesome work as usual.
I see you had to ditch ffffff as the bg color of the slideshow as well… mine was turning turquoise. I was told fffffe was closest, you may want to try that. I would say increase the time by .5 sec, it’s a bit fast especially when viewing two verticals together. I also wanted to ask where you got the share buttons underneath, I want to do something like that on my blog. Come over and leave your comment for me, too! :) Cheers, Kristina
I look at far more images when they are all displayed for me to scroll through so I am anti-slideshow. I don’t want to wait for the load time plus I use ClickToFlash because Flash is so poorly done on the Mac so by default I don’t even see the gallery.
I’m guessing 45 TS/E?
Love the ones taken outside in the gray dress and adore the last shot with her dog.
What about showing a few of my favorites, then having the rest below in a slideshow?
Very nice. 24TS-E? Stellar work as always and Kate sure did great as well!
As for the slideshow… First, they need to stay up longer. Like another one or two seconds. I know it can also be controlled.. I sorta like having them all listed out, even if it might make your pages very long. I like to scroll through images personally. Probably the biggest disadvantage is that you have to use flash for the slideshow. If someone were to come by on a mobile device, there could be issues.
Otherwise, I think its a very nice player and blends very nicely into your site. Which slideshow player are you using?
Beautiful work Tony. Love the new Blog and the slideshow was a great idea, perfect tempo to the image changes as well. Any slower and I would prefer to scroll.
beautiful model+one bada$$ photographer=awesome shoot.
i enjoy the slideshow/gallery…it’s a new year, try something new!
:o)
Excellent images and beautifully post processed.
Well, it’s official. It went from fall to winter in about 6 minutes. On Thursday it was 65 degrees, Friday it was 45 and Saturday it snowed all day. As usual my feelings on winter are as follows: I really LOVE the first day of snow and am simply fascinated by it. I absolutely DETEST...

Great pictures, I simply love the one with baby and lights on background.
What a great subject you had with that little ham. It really makes the job easier when you have good subjects to work with. Great shots.
LOVE “the look” photo! Another fave is the one where she looks uneasy about the looming Christmas tree behind her…cute expression.
Nothing like the cutest baby ever to brighten up my Monday morning blues! Great Job Tony.
These are amazing Tony. So many great ones here. Absolutely love the ones with the lights in the background. The first one is adorable.
