Mel and Jim – Sault Engagement Shoot
Mel and Jim had an originally planned for engagement shoot get rained out on. We grabbed about 5 shots or so as Mel and Jim’s dog Gunner was with us and we wanted to make sure we had a shot of him. About a month later we were able to actually get their real engagement shoot in. This time we headed out to Wishart Park which was a great area that I had not shot in yet. As the day started to get a bit warmer out the decision was made to get in the water – which is now a situation I’m putting a lot of my couples in if there is water around – might as well use it right?
Thanks for the great day guys and I’m looking forward to the trip down to Cambridge for the wedding in late September.
And just because I’m making my couples go in the water doesn’t mean I’m safe standing on dry land. I’m out there with them and usually laying across rocks trying to get that one shot. Here’s a shot Mel got of me when she took my camera and Jim was helping me off the rocks I was stuck on.
Beards Slo-Pitch – Jersey Unveiling
In the summer months I sponsor my own slo-pitch team. We have been together for 8 years now and I took over the sponsorship last year to give us a solid sponsor year after year instead of our general scrambling. Our team name is the Curt O’Neil Photo Beards.
This year was time to get us a proper jersey. After searching around for exactly what I wanted it seemed like it was impossible. Finally a solution came from Stefan at Sault Screeners who recommended “just get what you want” and the plan to order them custom made was put into motion. The goal after getting Jeannette from Jeannette’s Custom Cakes to design the logo was for the shirts to look like the throwback San Diego Padre jerseys. Each jersey was hand sewn and assembled which made them delayed for this season. This week is our last week of games and the jerseys came in last Friday.
So what do you do when you have awesome jerseys, little games left to play and not that great of a win-loss record? You give your jerseys their own photo shoot and official unveiling on your website.
So without further ado, here are the Beards:
