Paul Manke Photography

Im sorry to say that Rocky, the dog we photographed last weekend for our friend Jenn, passed away this morning.We are sending all our love and support to Jenn.Rocky was a "good boy!"

We just got this recommendation from a couple we shot 2 weeks ago.Jessica Weekley"My spouse (whew! that word is new to me!!) Vanessa and I had a wonderful wedding Nov. 7, 2009 in Newport Beach, Cali. Our photographer, Paul Manke, was an absolute blast...

We got to spend a wonderful afternoon with our friend Jenn and her two dogs Rocky & Moose. Last week Jenn found out that Rocky has lymphoma and only has a few weeks to live. With the medications he is on, you would never know he is a sick dog. Rocky & Moose are just two incredible and sweet dogs...

Being in New Orleans was quite an experience. PartnerCon itself was just incredible! I got to see some of my favorite photographers in the world. I also got to meet some new awesome people...

I have been editing and editing and packing and preparing to hit New Orleans this weekend.But here are a few images from Logan & Xindy's portrait session before the wedding...

I finally got the suspect medication out of my system and am feeling MUCH better!! I can actually move my arms now! Its a nice thing!On Sunday my wonderful partner and best friend had his 27th birthday...

Ok, I guess that is an over-exaggeration.Many of you know that I have fibromyalgia. It is sort of an arthritis of the muscles. It causes muscle pain, chronic fatigue and a whole host of other issues.I have been feeling horrible since Sunday and haven't even been able to make it to work...

Logan & Xindy are getting married tomorrow...in our back yard! Here is just a preview of some of the lighting we've put up for the wedding. LOTS more to come!!

This engagement session is very close to my heart! I love to travel so anything to do with travel gets me itching to travel! But not only that, these both are my co-workers at Pictage...

Please pardon our dust as we do a little remodeling of our blog!Our friend Dacia Lamb has graciously been assisting me in make a few upgrades so we can bring you larger previews of photos, the new Pictage Slideshows and a new look!We should should be back together and up and running within the next...
