And taking care of business. I've been a little busy the past few months but I'm back at the throne working on all of your emails and requests.
Colorado was just gorgeous and the wedding we shot there was incredible. Stay tuned.

A post just for Benjamin
We overlook number two too often and I wanted to make sure I get a few photos of him for you. The kid is amazing. You don't realize how much you can love until you have kids.
Ford Plantation
Wow. This one was amazing and it still hasn't been published! I need to see this in print somewhere asap.

Taylor and Holly | JUNE 2 '12
Two of my most favorite people. Ever.
They're getting married next weekend and the wedding will be amazing. Kristin Newman 
I need to post more photos of my kids.
I have a photograph of myself wearing this muscle shirt from when I was Dom's age. Life goes by too fast.
Our new website and portfolio...
Our new website has been done for a while now but I thought I'd do a quick post of some of the images in case you'd like to scroll through them a little faster. There is also a portraits section, a magazine section, and about 9 featured weddings on the main site that aren't here. www.timwill.com

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Thank you so much to everyone who has visited my blog this year, hired me to shoot your wedding, said something nice about my little business to a friend, or helped me in any way. I have had an amazing year and am very grateful for every blessing in my life.
Thanks also to my good friend Sean (who just survived an appendectomy this week) and who photographed my wife and me and our gorgeous kiddos. I am not posting all the photos yet or a link to the photographer's website because he's asked me to wait until the web gurus are finished with it. (He's updating it so keep your pants on. I'll post his site soon...)
Andre and Mary (not the preview)
Here are some more photographs from Mary and Andre's amazing wedding at the Ford Plantation
Yes, I know that I already posted a 'preview' from this wedding that was the size of a full post but I already had these images ready and I can't just neglect to post them for fear of being a little repetitive. The images are amazing and I need to share them. I do still have another 600+ images to post from other 2011 weddings but I'm going to let them out little by little so no one gets too bored.
PS: I need to submit this somewhere. Magazine or blog? Which magazine or blog? Advice appreciated? Yes.
SEAN & CASEY
Here are a few images from one of Sarah's weddings at Lowndes Grove here in Charleston SC.
VACATION
I want to know what other people do with their free time. Is it really great having a schedule and a 9-5 type of job with vacation time? I think that would be incredible. You go to work, you work, you come home and watch football. Or whatever you do. Set vacation time where you aren't worried about 10 million emails piling up and you're not thinking to yourself that maybe you shouldn't have turned work down just so you can sit around. I am very grateful for my ability to create my own schedule but it comes at a cost. Working for yourself means that you're never free. Sarah asked me why I always take on a new project the moment I get caught up and the only answer I could come up with is that I have to. I will never be satisfied that I've done my job as well as I can or that I've done everything I need to do to insure that I keep people coming back next year and the year after.
I'm not crying about it, I just wish someone would put a gun to my head and make me stop sometimes. That's probably what it would take.
Saturday was my first day off in months and it was a real treat. Sarah bought some sailing lessons through Groupon with Charleston Sailing School so we got out on the water for a bit. I have a new dream. Win the lottery, buy a huge catamaran and spend a few years exploring the caribbean. Or maybe I should just raise my rates. By about 500%. I'll give it some thought. More short term, it might be pretty cool to rent one and explore the British Virgin Islands for a week or so. If any one wants to split one (and you're not a huge pain to travel with) let me know. They're about 6-8g's per week and hold 6-8 people. I've got the itch for some clear water and a place without internet. Occupy Caribbean.
