This is Katie and John. I shot their engagement session a few weeks back and I'm putting together some shots to go in a custom rustique leather scrap book that I'm designing for their wedding sign-in book. It's turning out so cool! I had these books made by hand for my studio and I burn in my signature logo in the back using a brand I had made by some guy up in Northern California who does cow brands and things of that sort. It's totally bringing me flashbacks of my school days. So much fun! Maybe when it's done I'll take a picture of it and show it off. I shot an awesome wedding on Saturday and I will be posting images of that soon too, right after I get some shots up from my Brooks workshop last week!

Oh yeah.. My new DVD is coming out soon too! I'll put up a preview on my .net site soon!

Great work Mike! I just want to say thank you for encouraging me to do my best in photography. You have been such a hero of mine since a friend of mine introduced me to your site about 4 or so months ago. I very much enjoy the fact that you display your faith within your work. Thank you for that as well. Hopefully I will be able catch a seminar of yours, first I have to save the $$$. Looking forward to an update of photos on the site.
Cheers
Zack

I would love to see that book. We're showing off our books at the next PUG meeting in NY so it's kind of ironic that your doing something so creative. It's such a wonderful alternative to placing the an 8X10 of the couple next to the sign in book/ Can't wait to see it though. And thanks for being such an inspiration. I do hope to make out to the OC one day to sit in for a seminar. We all as working pros need that extra bit to excel to the next level. Stay strong, God bless, and stay inspired.
