wizelight photography: Hodge Podge

In the area where I live, we have been witness to one of the largest snow storms in years this weekend. Some areas of the region were said to have experienced "thunder snow" - a very rare occurence indeed.

The announcements are now out, so here are a few photos from the shoot...

I just love the aerial shot of that sweet shape
