I know i promised to be a better blogger this year, and i’ve been taking steps to make that happen. I’m happy to announce the birth of my brand new blog! This one has just been so clogged up and so slow that it has been torture to attempt to post anything on it. So i...

I’ve been an editing machine lately! Wedding season is in full swing again, and if I’m not shooting, i’m trying to get as much editing done as i can before the next shoot! As you can imagine, the list of client blog posts are really piling up on me now. I have so much i want to share! ...

Can’t wait to see the vintage bridals! The sneak peak is beautiful!
I shot the wedding over the weekend and it was such a beautiful day and a wonderful event, but more on that later! Today i’d like to share the bridals we took several weeks back. She was absolutely stunning! I’ve been hanging on to them and I’m so ready to finally share a few of them!

Dawn what time of day did you shoot this??
March 12, 2010 - 11:47 am
I think we started around 1:00. These were shot in january.

I thought it looked like middle of the day! They are beautiful (as are every other shot you take at this location) I have been so trained to not shoot in the middle of the day, that I haven’t done it much, but your images as making me think twice. I mean, I’ve always known it’s possible, I just haven’t done it enough… Plus, here in Nevada it seems so bright all the time. Maybe I’ll have to wait until next January…

Oh no, i dont’ ever suggest shooting in the middle of the day. Over here in january it’s dark by 5 so this still falls under the “last few hours of daylight”. The sun was still way off to the side, not directly above. I adjust my shooting time every month of the year.
The stunning Hannah! We finally got to shoot together and it was so much fun! I loved the style and attitude she brought to the session. What an amazing smile she has! (And an equally amazing pout too!) The wedding is only a couple weeks away now, can’t wait!

I can’t believe I’m already doing the “year end” post already! Where did this year go? It flew by faster than any year before it!!
I have to say this has been the BEST YEAR EVER! Starting in January with the birth of my daughter Eve, and after 2 months of maternity leave, I came back...

Stacy, where did you get your necklace…it is beatiful!

Dear Dawn Earles,
I am a huge fan of your work and I am so amazed by your photography. I wish I could have had you do my bridals and bride/groom photography…neither of which I was pleased with my for wedding. The aspect I like most about your photography is that there is a sense of magic and fantasy and a fairy tale quality with your bridal and wedding couple portraits. The beautiful climate, tall trees and lush foilage where you shoot certainly adds to this ethereal quality. I also like the effects you choose for certain pictures…infared, double exposure, different filters and unique coloring. I have looked at hundreds of photography websites from around the country and you are one of the only ones who has this sense of magic in her wedding photography…and uses effects so often that make your photography look timeless…the opposite of dated and trendy.
Unfortunately, I live in Northern Virginia, near D.C. and we don’t have any trips to your state planned anytime soon. My husband and I are looking for a photographer to shoot some bridal and newlywed/bride & groom photography in our wedding attire, we need some to display in our home…we only have about 3 of us alone from our entire wedding and no stylistic/fine art shots of us together at all!… Are there any photographers who you would recommend in my area who you think have these qualities I like about your photography? Surely there is no one with exactly your style, but perhaps there is a photographer who is similarly minded in their artistic vision. Please E-mail me back when you can. Thanks!
I have a mountain of editing ahead of me, so I’ll try and get some fresh posts up from some of the shoots i’ve been working hard on…. I honestly neglect this poor blog so much i’ve been considering dumping it….. what do you think? I know I hardly blog, but when I do I...

November 13, 2009 - 3:35 pm
Well i’m sure it’s quite boooooring if you check alot only to find nothing new for months at a time….. I will try to keep up with it better! But really, the blog is always last priority on my list of things to do!
November 15, 2009 - 7:28 pm

November 16, 2009 - 7:37 pm
Please don’t dump the blog!!!! I know you are too busy to keep up with it but I have to admit, I check it faithfully EVERY day.
Wow, the few days leading up to this session, the forecast was so back and forth we really didn’t know if we were going to be able to shoot or not. The final decision was made only minutes before her hair appointment! She decided to risk it, we crossed our fingers, and the day ended...
