Mel really loves lilies, so when she found the ones on her kitchen table with some high quality natural morning light to bring out their jewel-like tones, how could one expect her to do anything but breathe deep of their lovely fragrance and break out the camera?
We met today with Jeffrey Levine of Los Angeles, California on his Coaching Across America tour, and came away with some homework! Many thanks to Jeffrey for sharing his time and the great ideas he had about how we can better serve our own awesome clients.
Our friend and long-time client Devon Palmer, a talented local wood turner invited us over to his studio to try our hands at turning a couple of pens. Check out this one that Mel made and gave her dad for Father’s Day!
Need an international wedding photographer? We love to travel, so give us a call. We recently had the opportunity to visit Jamaica and Cozumel, where we dug our toes in the sand and caught some really beautiful sunsets. Here are our favorite scenic pics from the trip…
We just got back from a cruise with a client, and as we all know, when you’re on a luxury liner, you eat, and eat, and eat some more! Here are just a few visual samplings of the fantastic food Carnival had to offer during our voyage.
We had the opportunity to shoot some photos for the Greatest City Of All who we met up with at Starwars in Concert at Nationwide Arena. It was an awesome concert and we were able to get some amazing shots! Take a peek.
We went to opening night of Shadowbox‘s annual Holiday Hoopla show with friends visiting from out of town. If you’ve not been to one of their shows, you’re really missing out, and Holiday Hoopla is especially good. Read our full review of this show at Greatest City of All. In the meantime, here are some of our favorite images from the night…
We headed down to Independent’s Day for some R ‘n R, but as is often the case with shutterbugs, Adam brought his camera along. Check out some of the fun shots he captured!

It’s that time of the year – Backyard barbecues, pool parties, and who can forget the fireworks or, more importantly the rare elusive amazing fireworks photograph that most can only capture one time of the year in that very narrow window of time when they are seen “in the wild”. The perfect fireworks photograph is indeed a rare capture, but with a little help and some tips from us and others around the world, we’ll help you snag this beautiful, rare beast.
First, as always, I’ll preface with the fact that having an SLR camera will make it considerably easier to capture just about anything. However, that doesn’t make it completely impossible to get a great shot with a point-and-shoot, just more challenging. The real key is that your camera allows you some amount of manual control. Things like shutter speed and ISO are important components to capturing fireworks. But if you are in the market for an SLR, some serious deals can be had on the Nikon D40 right now, which is being phased out for the new D60. Don’t let all the new bells and whistles on the D60 fool you, the D40 is one of the most successful and longest manufactured cameras due to it’s success.

Next up, you’ll need a stable place to put your camera while you’re waiting on the beast to spring forth. Read more »
Today we took some pics for some extra-special clients. Mel’s parents, Ben and Shirley drove all the way in from Texas to visit with family and came in to the studio while they were here. Not only did they get Ben’s cousin Barb to join them for their shoot, but they also got Mel to hop in front of the camera a few times!
If you don't already know us, we're a little "different".
At GroovyDoodle Photography, YOU control your prints. Unlike most photography studios, you are paying for a photographer to spend time taking beautiful and stunning photos, not to be the middle man at selling you prints of your own photos. At GroovyDoodle, we strongly believe YOU should be able to print YOUR photos with whomever you wish. With every GroovyDoodle session, you will be given access to full-resolution images for each final pose so you can print them however you wish, as often as you like, without a middle man.
Other studios think we're crazy. But, we're just that "different"...
