Clients Comment

Stephen,
We love the offer and can't wait to see you for our personal photo session in Minnesota. All kidding aside, you did a great job on our last family portrait and I think we should make a trip to see you again for another one next summer. I will let you know as the time comes closer.
How are you and your family? It is getting colder here in the frozen tundra. Did you know they call Minnesota Jews the Frozen Chosen? Today's low temp was 11 degrees. I think this is going to be a very cold winter in MN (We have the lowest average temp in the contiguous U.S.).
Take care,
Jonathan

Besides photographing weddings, I also do Bar and Bat Mitzvah's, Family portraits, children and pets.
The above photo is the Stay at Home Dads group I belong to. We meet every Tuesday with the group. We go to local parks when weather is good. Otherwise you could find us at the library, or a mall with a play area. The group gives me a chance to hang out with other Dads that know what my life is like and just gets "it". Although the group is strong member wise, we often feel isolated from the rest of the world by being a stay at home Dad. Many people have asked me "You really like being at home, not working"? My answer, I am proud to be at home with my boys. And I never have worked harder at any "job" Nor have I ever got more pleasuer. Its not just a job, its an adventure, its my life.

Typical city shot, but a great couple to pull it off.
One of my brides who "Got It".

Side street in chicago, a bride appreciateing the way she looks. Love it.
These two out fits work great for my boys. First for a funeral, then for a wedding. At both affairs I loved showing them off. My boys are my world. Love being the stay at home parent. One of the best challenges I ever faced..... I welcome this challenge.

This image is from my wedding to Mary Sluiter. Mary, my love, my soulmate, the Mother of my boys.

She is such an insperation to me, a best friend, my savior....
