Class of 2009

© Righter Imaging

Yesterday I graduated from Hallmark Insitute of Photography. It's a bittersweet feeling. I'm so excited to start my photography career, but at the same time I'm going to miss everyone so much.

I wrote a testimonial for the school website and it basically describes how I feel about the past ten months of my life.

When I walked into the Educational Center on the first day of school, I knew the next 10 months of my life were going to be life changing. At Hallmark, not only did I learn about all the different aspects of photography, but I learned more about myself than I could ever imagine. The faculty, staff, and my peers became my family away from home, helping each other become the best person and photographer they could be. I couldn't recommend a school, or family, better than Hallmark Institute of Photography.

Here's to the HIP Class of 2009. I love you all and wish everyone the best!

Final Portfolio

Last Wednesday I turned in my Final Portfolio for Hallmark- hmmm, a breathe of fresh air! The stress is done, for now, 'till I go to my portfolio review next Friday/Monday. But until then, I'm home in Connecticut relaxing and enjoying time off with my family and friends. Plus, I already have a few client for the summer season, so I think it's going to be a great summer! Plus, I got a haircut, so I have that great feeling of fresh, clean hair.

Here are a few of my photographs from my portfolio.

Enjoy!

Tim and Victoria Muller

This past weekend I photographed my first wedding for Tim and Victoria Mullen. I had such a great time, despite a few seconds of rain. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and the reception hall was unbelievable! I'm so happy I was able to be there on Tim and Victoria's special day.

Here are a few of my favorite photographs from the day.











Hope everyone is well!

Kelly Vasami Photography

This past Saturday I assisted Kelly Vasami at an Indian Wedding.

Kelly is a wedding and portrait photographer out of New York, and she is amazing! Not only is she a great photographer, but she's a wonderful person. I was able to learn so much from her this weekend, from photographing a wedding to networking in this crazy industry. I even ended up shooting a little bit!

Here's a link to here website:

If you're in the New York area, I highly reccommend hiring her as your photographer! Once I get the photos from the wedding, I'll post a few up here.

Hope everything is well for everyone- things are starting to settle down here at Hallmark!

My Cousins

I have a rather large family, and by rather I mean very. My dad is the youngest of seven kids... So as you can imagine, holidays and birthdays are packed! I am the middle child of about 20 cousins, and I love all of them! I have three baby cousins; Jaxson, Grace, and Izabella. Jax is almost two, Grace is fourteen months, and Izzy is just about two months! Needless to say, I love photographing them, especially Grace! She many be barely one, but she has the attitude of a top model already!

Here are a few recent photos of them... Expect more of them in the future for sure!

Website Launched!:edit

Good Weekend, Good Weather, Good Times.

This weekend has been great. The weather was amazing, in the 70's, beautiful skies, just great. I was walking around in jeans and a tank top, something I never thought I'd ever do again after having so much snow this winter. On top of that, I got a lot shot. I haven't really been able to go through all of the photos and see what I have, but once I get back to school I'm hoping to have at least six shots done for my portfolio.

Yesterday I did a shoot with two of my best friends, Rachel and Kaitlyn. I've know Rachel since 7th grade and Kaitlyn since 2nd grade, so we're pretty tight. It was so great to have lunch with them, talk, catch up, and take photos with them. I can't wait for the summer so I can chill with all my friends again, because I miss them all terrribly.

So I'm off to do some shots of my friend's Tanning Salon for their website, then I'm off to Greenfield to get some editing done... I don't think I've ever been this excited to edit photos, haha.

Hope everyone's well!
