The Holidays
January 4, 2010 |
surprisingly, i didn't make many pictures of the holidays.  let's see... i was near death with some virus around christmas, i feel asleep before 11pm on new years eve, and i played too much clue - the board game - to pick up the camera.  okay, i did make a few fotos.  i went down to the grandparents and hung out with family.  i traveled to new york for an amazing wedding of some friends (i actually attended it) on new years day. so here are a few snippets of my holidays; many of them ended up being of my grandad.  i couldn't help it, you know, he's just that interesting.  all in all, i think the holidays were well celebrated.  how was yours?

Shaun, i think you made that picture of Alex - i only remember taking a picture of you shirtless...

Growing up, I was terrified of that shed and their basement - I still am a little.

I see so much of your grandpa in you.
This is a compliment.

Dan Loves Kristen
January 4, 2010 |
second time i've ever been to NY and it was well worth it.  i attended my first wedding in over a year and a half.  that's right, i actually didn't work.  but i did sneak a picture or two the day of.  Dan and Kristen are very lovely and kind and big-hearted friends that are the type of people that can change any kind of environment to a more joyful one.  the wedding was simply splendid, not because i got to dance the night away, but because the wedding was full of the overflowing love they had one another.  CONGRATULATIONS Dan and Kristen!!  i'm excited to see what the Lord has for you both in the coming years!

i took some amateur video of the reception...maybe i'll post that here.

Good work on the video, JFrey.
J.FREY says: Monday, January 4, 2010, 10:24 PM

Thanks! Now, if I can only get a stabilizer and a few mics, I'd consider filming weddings :)

Awesome video Jonathan. I'm glad you captured the double hair flip from Tan-man.

I made him do it multiple times, there just wasn't enough umph in his previous attempts. Or just maybe he's not that good at flipping his hair?

i'm playing with nikon's newest toy, the D3s.  boy, it's dreamy.  i love it.  i love playing around with the d-movie.  amazing quality!  i think i'm in lub.  i made a little portrait movie for y'all to check out - i think it's kind of funny. music by Sufjan Stevens, Flint (for the Unemployed and Underpaid).

this was hard.  i narrowed down my favorite people fotografs to 1000 100 75  (it's kind of pathetic i couldn't get it below 75).  there were so many that made the initial list but it was too big so i just started arbitrarily removing them.  there were a few pairs that i couldn't separate and so counted them as one foto.
the Lord has certainly blessed and preserved me in this endeavor to become a picture maker.  really, these pictures are a testimony of the Lord's faithfulness and mercy.  i can't wait for next year.  holy smokes.  it's going to be the best yet ever unlike any other top notch no equal. 

to see all 75 follow the link: jfreyfavorites.  so what do you think, did your favorite make it?  did i miss any, would you add any to the list?

mine is...the fifth picture.  Molly, what can i say?  we just rocked it that day.
