Recently I was approached by Triad Weddings Magazine and asked to write the photo editorial for their Spring/Summer 2016 issue. I was honored to have been chosen and quickly began brainstorming just what to write about. There were literally hundreds of ideas that began to flood my mind, but I wanted something a little different… […]

Today is a pretty “monumental” day for JTP – it’s the 5th anniversary of the very FIRST wedding I photographed! Really – I can’t believe it’s already been that long. In some ways it feels like just yesterday… I hadn’t been in the “photo world” very long and I was determined that I’d need to […]

I’ve been working with some of the world’s greatest clients for quite some time now, and one of the things I “pride” myself in is an attention to detail.

From the moment we met, I knew that Liz and Brandon were not your “average” couple. They were more fun, and dare I say “quirky,” than anyone I’ve ever worked with.

October 3, 2015: One of 2015’s most popular wedding dates was also a pretty popular day for one of the most insane hurricanes the East Coast has ever had! Weddings all across this region of the US had their plans changed and backup options secured to accommodate the storm that was fast approaching. Although this time […]

What a wedding this was! It’s been such a wonderful experience to guide Justin and Diana through the entire photography experience, from beginning to end. (Check out their engagement photos) It’s such an honor to spend so much quality time with a couple, and their family, and then be a part of their wedding day. Call […]

Let’s be real. How many of us have times where we are wrong about something? (Go ahead, raise your hand…) We’re all guilty of this from time to time – and probably more often than we care to admit. Am I right!?  Well today I’m keeping it real and totally shedding some light on my […]
