Andy and Heather: Married 12-12-09

Andy and Heather- It was a pleasure to photograph your wedding...it was a little cold, but we got through it! Winter weddings are not the easiest, but I know we got some great shots...I wish you the best marriage and a life of happiness, Matt.

The Christmas Card.

Thought I'd share..this was taken earlier this year, but it still works...for those of you who did not get a hard copy in the mail, I am sorry, so you can have this one :

The Guiseffi's

Hi Danielle- Thought I would post a photo from your set you chose for your wedding book....I am getting close to finished..Talk with you soon! Matt

Amber and Tyler: E-Session

Cold, Cold, Cold....that was the word for the day during Tyler and Amber's engagement session. Although it was cold, and the session only lasted a half an hour, I know we got some great pics! I cannot believe I chose this photo for blog posting because I am not a Cowboys fan, I am a Vikings fan...Cannot wait to shoot your wedding next Summer! Matt

Katarina: Senior 2010

Katy is an exchange student from Heilbronn, Germany. She is staying with my brother and sister-in-law for a year in Wichita, Kansas. More pics to come!

A trip to the Zoo.

As a photographer, I am always looking through the lens to find the best light, pose, personality, etc. It is really nice to hang em' up for the winter and go to the Zoo with NO expectations, other than capturing my daughter and my nieces having the greatest time at the zoo. I didn't care if the backgound was washed out, bringing light on them was not even on my mind, I am not even really quite sure what aperture I was on while shooting...it was purely fun, sometimes you just have to not worry about the little things. Shot with the 7D. Matt

New Look

With the 2010 season coming near, Schuldt Imagery will be getting a new look...here is a preview.

35th Senior of the Year = Done!

I want to thank all the brides, seniors, and families for an awesome 2009. Shooting 18 weddings (2 left this year), 35 seniors, and 10 families, it was a busy year for Schuldt Imagery. Many new items for the 2010 year will take affect: Indoor portrait sessions with tethered imagery on big screen for live viewing (for a shorter workflow), a second photographer, printed proof books, after-shoots, leather wedding books, larger prints sizes, client proofing, and a new more intuitive website. Looking forward to the 2010 year, I will be using a Canon 5D and 5D Mark II, A 7D, and a 30D. 2010 has 13 weddings booked (looking for 2 more!) I cannot wait for the new year to come...once again, thank you. Matt

Just an idea: Future Stuff

The Meyers: Thanks for being my first "clip"- We'll see what happens :)
