Wedding- Hunter and Brittany

September 29, 2009 – 1:45 pm

This has to be one of the funnest couples we have ever worked with . I knew after the engagement shoot that this wedding was going to rock and it exceeded my expectations. The volume of moments captured was amazing and I posted more than usual. The results of this wedding really is what we are all about. Honestly I stayed later than contracted because I could not turn my back on such great moments. Really glad I did!

The ceremony was at the Baughman Center and reception at the Hilton. You really can’t find a better combination. I had the pleasure of working with the great Amy from Avie who truly showed how much of a professional she really is. Kevin from Storybook Events put on a great reception and is now at the top of mt referral list. Joan from Prange’s Florist supplied her usual masterpiece creations. Such a wonderfully planned wedding that was darn near perfection.

Enjoy!!

Its Now Professor Witzel…..But Call Me Rob

September 16, 2009 – 9:25 pm

As if I didn’t have enough going on right now, I was invited to be an adjunct professor at the University of Florida this semester to teach Advanced Journalism in the college of journalism. My class is wonderful and I have had a great time trying to motivate their young minds.

This is not my first teaching gig as I have an online class for wedding photography that I have written and am weeks away from starting on. Figure I better have as many backups as possible given the economy but I currently have lots of “logs in the “fire.” Thankfully I am blessed to spend every day immersed in the world of photography so it is really not like working. Could not be happier.

Gators vs Charleston Southern

September 6, 2009 – 11:10 pm

It would be easy to say its a new year for Florida football but this is THE year, the biggest yet and possibly the biggest for many years to come. The Gators are stacked, Tim Tebow is out to set his legacy and nobody else has moved up to the orange and blue stratosphere.

Saturday was a tune-up for whats to come. Even though the Gators have some cupcake teams to start, the SEC East schedule is brutal. They will be challenged week in and week out.

My offering is visual and not speculative but I can assure you this year will be a thrill ride. I am on board for most of the games. Hope you enjoy the images!!

Tim Tebow Goes to Prison

September 3, 2009 – 11:56 am

………….to preach the Word to youthful offenders.

I had the rare opportunity to photograph the current Sports Illustrated cover boy Tim Tebow as he visited some 800 inmates at Lake City Correctional Institute. He shook ever single person’s hand but more importantly shared his perspective on life, talked about “finishing strong,” and led dozens to accept Christ in their hearts.

We were not allowed to show recognizable faces so I had to be a bit creative but still hit the mark that I was aiming for. Have had tons of emails about this since it was published in Sunday’s paper.

You can see the full story, photos and video at www.gainesville.com.
