Photo Lessons by Joe McNally
I took a break from designing and sketching ideas for this weekend’s event setup to check the web feeds. Had a good laugh when I came across this napkin art. I’ve had some pretty cool photography instructors, mentors and inspirations. Still nobody illustrates his or her work as simply and geek friendly as the famous [...]

A duet of the photographers found in Stacie & Bryan’s gallery. Stacie’s daughter Lexi asked if she could take a picture with Sara’s camera, so while Sara instructed her I photographed the lesson. Voila - photographer double shot.

Tonight Sara and I wrapped up our fourth year photographing together (our third year as my full-time job) with a superb finale celebrating with Nicole and Scott.
Believe it or not, I (Eric) love shooting salon photos. Lots of color, shapes, fun with the bride and her friends, time to test out ideas, coffee… and today, [...]
Slow down a minute
This week was all topsy-turvy. Hard to describe the feeling. Lots of changing weather, lots happening at home, lots of work to do for all the cool couples working with us to wrap up their super cool wedding albums. It never slowed for a second.
Thursday Sara was out of town for an overnight business trip [...]
Something new - fashion?
Today I joined creative forces with cohorts from the Creative Underground to photograph a selection of River’s Mark Trading Co.’s handmade Turkish bead necklaces and bracelets. It was nothing near the frenzy of America’s Next Top Model but it was our model’s fashion debut. (She did great!) I had to share a sneak preview from [...]

Our weekend of awesome couples in Grand Rapids, Michigan concluded with a perfect afternoon Engagement Session with Nicole and Scott at Scott’s family’s restaurant - Noto’s Old World Italian.
If our incredible wedding Saturday wasn’t enough to make me want to visit Grand Rapids again, spending an afternoon with the Noto family and seeing their breathtaking [...]
Congrats Stacie and Bryan!

I love the colors and textures found in salons.

October is here at last.
It was fall today, the way it should be. Cool weather not above 60˚ starting with some rain this morning. Golden sun and leaves beginning to fill the yard. Adrian wearing fuzzy warm clothes as he crawled and climbed all over the place. Hot cocoa and apple cider for breaks.
I was [...]
Seeing Something Invisible
If you’ve looked at a photography magazine or seen any photo-centric websites or forums you know there’s been a tidal wave of new digital SLR cameras flooding the lineup of already pretty awesome cameras out there. Newer, faster, shinier, a couple extra megapixels… it’s crazy how quickly new cameras are being introduced!
This summer it was [...]
Butterfly in the Sky
Butterfly in the sky, Newlyweds fly twice as high!
It’s 2am and I started singing the Reading Rainbow theme song while editing this shot from Melanie and Mark’s wedding last weekend. Definitely time for bed but wanted to get this favorite photo up to see first. Instead of having birdseed, bubbles, petals or any other kinds [...]
