Welcome Get Shot By Tate!
Since you MUST know about me...... I'll talk about what kind of photographer I am. I'm the kid who hated traditional crap. I hated the concept of doing wedding photography. I wanted to do high fashion and naked people - and that WAS IT. Fast Forward to ten + years later....... I'm doing weddings, naked people (but it's always tasteful..... or at least I think it is) and I do SOME traditional stuff. I like to think my traditional stuff is twisted. Ok, it's not traditional. Call it what you want to call it, but I don't like the WORD - traditional. My wife does. She's twisted traditional. My work is my work. I don't like rules. It's hard for me to play by the rules when I'm doing photography. I think that's what keeps it so fun for me. I tell the parents of my senior shoots that I dislike cap and gown shots (was I supposed to do that?) but I still do them because I know they love those. ;-) I think you get the drift of what kind of photographer I am. I may think I'm way more radical than I am, but let me think I'm just ubercool and not traditional. Okay?

Chris & Debbie Hitched!!!!!
11.23.09
Chris and Debbie got married last October and I had the pleasure of being their wedding photographer! Chris is Mary Wanko Clement's brother (I swear I get so much business through them and their gang - THANK YOU SO MUCH!) and the wonderful Debbie is one of Mary's longtime friends and was a bridesmaid in her wedding. It was a match made in heaven when I hit that "group of friends" because we all just mesh so great together, and we all like to PARTY ;-)

Check out how gorgeous! She got ready in downtown New Orleans, got married in Metarie, then all of us partied all night on the top of the Jackson Brewery at the Jackson Square. I ended up staying with them until almost 2am. What a bunch of fun we had (and it's evident in their photos!)

Thank you again to Chris and Debbie - enjoy these photos are many years to come.
