Happy New Year!

Adrian Gibbs — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 19:47:33 +0000

My goal in 2010 is to do everything bigger, better and more creative than last year. It’s a goal I set for myself every year and hopefully it shows in the work I produce. I kicked off 2010 with a foxhunt with Priscilla Godsoe of the River Hills Foxhounds, followed up by a shoot by the always photogenic Elle. The wedding talk is already gearing up and expect some photos from some not so local destinations!

The Wedding of Jody Miller and Michael Habecker

Adrian Gibbs — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:46:09 +0000

Jami and I had the pleasure of ending the wedding season with an amazingly fun couple and wedding party. I love emotional folks not only because they make the world go round, but also because they make for very moving photos. It also is nice when the wedding party is a little outgoing. This group didn’t disappoint!

Forecast this weekend called for some Slight Clutter

Adrian Gibbs — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 23:08:55 +0000

I’ve been really fortunate in getting to finally meet some of my oldest flickr family in the last few years. This time I finally got to meet Katya Horner (who many of you as Slight Clutter from Flickr) and Irina Souiki as you as Irina Souiki. Both were exactly who I thought they were, plus a little bit more and dinner with these folks felt like coming home. Both are talented photographers who have been right along side of me from the beginning. Watching each grow and develop into top photographers has been inspiring. After years of knowing each other online, we finally met in person and wow… it didn’t disappoint!

Everyone knows Laura (helveticaneue) and Nardell.. like Elvis or Madonna, they only need one name. Both are wickedly talented local artists and I love when we have these meet ups. No egos, just a lot of fun, laughs and camera talk…

That’s the way it should be.

We ate at the now world famous Crawdaddy’s Cafe in West Chester, PA and had a blast. You would have thought it was a warzone with all of the ducking for cover when the cameras came out, so I will resist the urge to upload more and put this one up for everyone to see.

Seven has officially given up on Raemarie and has a new love of his life in Katya. He hasn’t eaten since she left… not even a piece of steak. I think he has it bad.

I understand. I miss her!

Two Longwood Gardens visits in the span of a week!

Adrian Gibbs — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 22:18:12 +0000

I spent more time at Longwood Gardens in the last week than I have in months. It’s such a scenic location with so many beautiful and interesting subjects to shoot. The flowers and fountains are always amazing, but add in some stunning people and it’s even more brilliant there. I had the wonderful opportunity to shoot with Tina on Saturday. We picked the most awful day to try to shoot because it was wall to wall people for a festival and fireworks display, but as I showed her around during her maiden visit, we took a few pictures.

I’m a little biased… I think they turned out well as it’s pretty hard to take bad photos of my friend.

Spent a rainy Friday at Longwood Gardens with my wonderful friend and amazing wedding partner, Jami McEvoy. It’s nice having someone so cool to turn a lemon of a day into lemonade with! Jami’s the perfect wedding partner as she sees things that go unnoticed by so many others. Our styles are different but they work so well together.

I will be hopefully wrapping up the final shots for one of my two upcoming photo books by the end of next week. One is a book of some of my most well received photos as well as some new, unreleased work and the other book is one of my wedding work, including some remixed photos along with some full bleed black and white work. Stay tuned!

Had the pleasure of shooting three great horses and their wonderful riders on Sunday. My second real shooting even since the surgeries and I felt good! Spent time in the heat, carrying my full wedding pack and two cameras with no fatigue or shortness of breath. This is a very good thing! Below are some photos of the horses and the riders, along with a gallery and a for your viewing pleasure.

Historic Strasburg Inn

Adrian Gibbs — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 02:10:43 +0000

I Had a wonderful time at the wedding of Andy Shaw and Cara Schneider at the Historic Stasburg Inn. Fantastic people who were full of life and so much fun to shoot. I’m a big fan of heartfelt toasts, but am really moved by the emotions that the wedding guests wear on their faces when they don’t realize that that I’m shooting them.

It was apparent from start to finish that this couple is surrounded by love and I hope my photos convey what I witnessed. Please email me for the password and identify yourself in the form.

NEW.. The full gallery for Ryan and Larissa is LIVE!

The wedding of Ryan Chevalier and Larissa Chuhran at the Riverdale Manor was beautiful! It rained every single day of the week but Larissa told me to have faith that her wedding day would be a sunny one. I left my raincoat at home and took it on faith. She was right! They had a sunny day for their wedding, a delightful wedding party and some amazingly fun friends and family!

Definitely a reason to jump for joy.
