Love repeats...

Seriously - there's nothing better than shooting a wedding where you know your clients from a previous shoot. I had that privilege recently with the Wathan and Carlile families. I've know both for a number of years... the Wathan family for almost a decade. Just so blessed that both families asked me again!

February Weddings

Just finished two weddings this month - one in Birmingham and one in Tuscaloosa. Enjoyed them both! Two weeks off and then the marathon begins!

Ready for 2012!

I'm ready for 2012! I had wonderful weddings throughout 2011 and I want to again thank all of my wonderful clients and the terrific feedback I've received.

Looking forward to starting my 2012 wedding season in a few weeks. There are a few early spring and late summer dates still open.

Nice review...

It's always nice to get a good review... even when you least expect it:

A review posted from "The Knot" -


Awesome Job! posted 12/12/2011

We initially hired Claus to video our wedding day - from getting ready to the end of the reception. After a few weeks, we decided that we would like to have footage of the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner as well and he was more than happy to modify our package to include that as well. He was incredibly professional on our wedding day and got some amazing shots, all while staying out of the way. Being able to watch our wedding ceremony after the fact was wonderful and he did a fantastic job with everything. We got our DVD's and BluRay's about a month after the wedding, just as he had promised. He even had pictures from the wedding on the cover of the discs! We were very impressed and would recommend him highly!

Like... wow! Thanks so much!!

Cartersville, Georgia

Shot a wedding in Cartersville, Georgia yesterday. Got to see my FAVORITE daughter-in-law! Details/photos soon!

Dauphin Island

Shot a really cool beach wedding on Dauphin Island. Alaina and Ryan came all the way down from Wisconsin for their wedding at sunset. I've done about a half dozen of these beach weddings and just love doing them.

Rocket Science

I got OUT of the habit of posting my weddings immediately after the wedding a few months ago. I am working on getting back to it.

This weekend, I shot Dave and Janna's wedding in Huntsville, Alabama. Dave is from Kentucky and works as an engineer at NASA's George C. Marshall Space Flight Center at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. Janna is ALSO an engineer with NASA here in Huntsville. The ceremony was held at Willowbrook Baptist Church in Huntsville and the reception was at Cherokee Ridge in Marshall County. A wonderful ceremony, reception, and - ANOTHER first - I don't think I've EVER recorded a wedding with SO MANY engineers from NASA. Bridesmaids, groomsmen... so many NASA Rocket Scientists!
