Another image placed in a WPJA quarterly contest! This one placed in the ‘creative portrait’ category, which is pretty competitive since photographers are generally pretty on point with these pics and tend to shoot all sorts of crazy stuff.
Funny story behind this image: Brad and Gina got married at the Vista at Arrowhead in Beaver...

Rudi’s Buckles
So back in April I had the pleasure and honor to photograph Rudi and Russell’s totally rad wedding in the Bahamas. They were married at the Abaco Club on Winding Bay, which is perhaps one of the most beautiful beaches anywhere. Anyway, Rudi is starting her own business called Nature Girl Designs making really cool...
Inside the Album, Part IV
This post will be about the ZookBinders PhotoBook, which I think is the absolute perfect book to use for parent albums or for turning your engagement images into a signing book for your reception. Here, we’ll meet a few parent albums, both of which were mini versions of Megan and Andy’s ZookBook and Joe and...
Inside the Album, Part III
Here’s another tour through another ZookBook so you can get an idea of the available variety. This album, Megan and Andy’s, has a more traditional feel to it compared to Elitia and Joe’s book, but it’s still got the contemporary coffee-table feel on the inside.
Megan and Andy chose a classy black leather with some silver...
Inside the Album, Part II
I figured I’d continue the Inside the Album blog posts with a post about mypublisher.com and iPhoto photo books, which are made by the same company. All my packages come with a rights-released CD, so you can opt to make one of these books. The upside is they’re really inexpensive and they’re easy to make...
Inside the Album, Part I
I got quite a few responses to a blog post a few weeks ago about wedding albums and album design, so I figured I’d write up a virtual tour through several wedding albums and parent albums. In this edition of Inside the Album, I’m going to focus on the Zookbook, made by Zookbinders. It’s sort...
Beware of dog
If I were a dog, I’d want to be my dog. He’s just that rad. Flying through the air dressed in a jacket, pouncing on big dogs. Alicia thinks he looks like a bat, while I think he looks like a Gremlin, the kind with those huge ears after you spill water on them. Certainly...
Brides Magazine Photo Contest
Hoooray!
I just found I had an image place in the first ever Brides Magazine photo contest. Here’s a link to the contest.
This pic here scored 8th place in the dancing category. Big honor! National contest in a national magazine, judged by at least 3 Pulitzer Prize-winning photogs. Sweeeet!
Horse pics awards
Would have posted this on my editorial site, http://www.nathanweltonphoto.com, but I don’t have a blog there, so I’m posting it here.
Just got the results from the 2007 American Horse Publications awards ceremony, which covered all stories and photos published in 2006. I shoot for Practical Horseman Magazine covering dressage, hunter/jumpers and eventing, among other things,...
Awesome feedback
Wow, this is just beyond cool. I got an email recently from Lara, whose wedding I shot over Labor Day in California. In it was a message from her mom. It’s about a zillion pages long, but here are some excerpts… This thing made my day! Here’s a slideshow from their wedding.
Hi Lara,
Yes, they’re all...
