Do you like to have fun? We do, especially with our photos. We wanted something a little different than the average blog out there, so along with our super talented Blog designer we came up with a Favorites section - or "Wiebner Faves" as we like to call it. What is it you ask? more »
Well, under each photo, you will see an "I Like This" box. If you really like that image, if it tickles your fancy, or makes you laugh, or just plain old makes you smile - go ahead - check it. We know you want to. Each time that box is clicked on a photo, it adds to the running tally for that image. The top 14 favorite images on the entire blog will be shown as thumbnails in this section. Just so you can see the most popular images of all time on the blog. A little something out of the ordinary - it never hurts to be different!
Also, blog posts can be favorites. Now that we have comments available, you will see a little bar meter at the bottom left of each post. Once the meter hits a certain number of comments, its automatically promoted to a "Wiebner Fave Post". :) Something else just for fun!
Are you ready to advance your business? Education in our industry is important to us. The more photographers that are aware in the industry the better it is for everyone. Won't you join us in making our goals a reality? We participate in various workshops, seminars and speaking engagements. Listed below are various engagements - some are our own workshops, others we will be hosting or speaking at. If you wish to participate, please drop us a line or click the link to find out more info!
I find it incredibly difficult to write about us when put on "The Spot". "I need a 500 word bio about you and Joel, now!" Who can do that? How do you make your own personality shine in a few words, let alone that of two people? Well, I am going to give it my best shot. If you really want to know about US - who we really are - read the blog below. We really try to keep it updated as often as possible, and hope that our fun, casual personalities shine through in the words you read and the images we capture for our clients. The blog below is our way of communicating our lives - both personal and professional - with clients, friends, family and colleagues. We believe strongly in using words and images together to communicate our passion.
I am going to keep this short and sweet - Joel and I were meant to be together - to live, love and be happy making photographs. We were both photographers before we met over 9 years ago - we met behind a camera, and continue to feed off of that energy. We are a rock solid husband and wife team and we wouldn't want it any other way - we work together 24/7 and never tire of each other. We have had our business since November 2000, and have thrived on photographing weddings as our main photography genre since 2002. We love what we do. We like to think we look at the world in our own way - not photojournalistically, not traditionally, not artistically. Just as a Wiebner. If you like what we see, then you will like us too. Oh and don't forget to comment in the blog on our two little darlings - Haydn and Zane - they are pretty darn cute little Wiebners. Enjoy! - Rita
Ha! I'm a poet and don't knowit. :) That totally sounded like something coming out of Joel's mouth. He's so funny like that. Anyway...we photographed Chrysi & Ben's wedding 2 years ago, and while it was a very cool wedding in Cape May, Chrysi was just coming off a broken foot, and had a boot on her foot for the wedding. She felt she wasn't able to really move around well, so she wanted to get some fun portraits of her and Ben in Baltimore, where they live, and roam around their neighborhood, and the area where they met. So, that's what we did! They live in a great little neighborhood, and we just had a great time visiting all of the spots that mean something to them. It was a gorgeous day for some gorgeous photos!

Derek and Molly's Session Wednesday, March 31, 2010
Derek and Molly have been dating for several years, and thought it was time to have some portraits taken. They loved downtown Lancaster, so we went for a walk one brisk winter day. Lots of giggles (Molly was full of them) and shy looks back and forth. Ah, young love! :) We meandered down the streets and alleys and made our way to Musser Park, where Derek spied the chess tables set up. They both love chess, so we made good use of them for some of their portraits. These guys loved their session, and we were so glad we could help them capture a special time in their lives!

Lindsay and Justin...and Snow. Thursday, March 4, 2010
Lindsay contacted us to photograph some portraits of her and her boyfriend Justin. They have been together for a long time, and she loves our photography, so she thought it was time to convince Justin to do a session. Justin was a little hesitant at first, but I think we quickly won him over to "The Wiebner side" and we were all having a great time by the end of the shoot. We photographed this in Lititz Springs Park, after we had a few inches of snow back at the beginning of December.

Karen, Mike and that Quentin Dog Thursday, January 28, 2010
Karen wanted some photos with her and Mike and their new dog Quentin. Quentin was a bundle of energy in the studio and was all over the place! He's such a cute little guy though isn't he? Karen was worried about how he might behave out on the leash downtown, so we did some shots of them with Quentin in the studio, then took to the streets for a few more casual photos of Karen and Mike. Way to go Quentin for being a good boy!

Heidi & Dave...and that hat. Thursday, January 21, 2010
Heidi and Dave are a super cool couple who won one of the free portrait sessions from our grand opening last summer. Even though they have a bunch o kids, they wanted to do a session of just them. I thought that was great! Most parents wouldn't think it was important to have photos of them, they always think of the kids first. Heidi said they have a ton of photos of the kids (Dave likes photography so he takes a lot of the kids himself) so they thought it was time to have some special shots of just them. They were a riot! Heidi brought along this black and white hat, and while she loved it, Dave wasn't that crazy about it. So we did a bunch of shots with and without it. Of course, the shot that they loved the best, that they got enlarged for a canvas in their room, has the hat in it! :)
We did a downtown session with them and took a walk in a new direction, so of course we found some great new spots. We even ended up in a cemetary. :) I always say, downtown Lancaster has soooo much character, I absolutely love living downtown! You can see by all of the great textures and colors we found...
