Harmony Hills Winery, Bethel, OH

I just visited and photographed the vineyard of Harmony Hills Winery,  http://www.hhwines.com/,  located in the lovely rolling hills of Bethel, OH.

The grape vines are just starting to leaf out and the Purple Martins have arrived  back at the pond (a wonderful social bird that is becoming more and more scarce with habitat loss). The donkeys are curious and the wildflowers are blooming. The time for wine and weddings are approaching.

See for yourself.

BBW

Sunday a group of like-minded Cincinnati area photographers gathered to share fashion photography tips and techniques on photographying "Big Beautiful Women". There were professional and amature photographers, plus a couple of dancers who shared their posing knowledge.  What we learned were techniques that can be used when photographing anyone during a portrait or wedding photography session.

Tricia & Steve

On May 22, 2010, Tricia and Steve have plans to marry at Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park (http://www.pyramidhill.org/) located north of Cincinnati in Hamilton, Ohio.

We met at the park last Monday and I took a few wedding engagement photos of the couple around one of the ponds.
