In November, I flew down to Savannah, Georgia to help my girlfriend Liz come home from school. We had decided a few months prior to go on a road trip and do some random sight-seeing. Now, I've never actually planned a trip or vacation or what have you, so the pressure was on to make this fun! Thanks to Google and National Geographic, I searched and searched for days trying to find something cool that Liz and I could visit. When I finally took the gamble and chose the locations we would eventually visit, I had no idea just how breathtaking they would be. Our first stop was Hunting Island State Park in South Carolina. When I googled this park, all I knew about was a cool marshland boardwalk. But what I didn't know was that on the other side of the park there was a gigantic maritime forest, lighthouse and gorgeous beach. The second Liz and I drove into this park, we were in love. We also made a second stop along our trip to Hanging Rock State Park in Danbury, North Carolina. The name alone is what sold me. And after the long hike up this mountain, the view was breathtaking. Liz and I sat up there, squeezed in-between two rocks and let all of our worries go. It was a memory I'll never forget. Here are some or my favorite photos during the trip, which turned into a lengthy portrait session with Liz. -Jeff

Before the holidays, I met up with Dan and Kristin at Lititz Springs Park for their engagement session. The weather was perfect as we walked along the fallen leaves surrounding the park. There is usually a moment or two that I'll never forget from every session that I shoot. For this one, I had Dan think of jokes on the spot to tell Kristin and "try" to make her laugh. The three of us were hysterical as we all tried to think of jokes on the spot. Needless to say, I think it did the trick. I can't wait to photograph their wedding in June! -Jeff

Right after Christmas Brooke and I were leaving her family's holiday party and this little kitten ran out of the bushes right to me.  We looked for other kittens but couldn't find any so we decided to take her home.  We love cats but already have 4 and 5 is too many so we are looking for a loving home for "Lady."  She is roughly 9 weeks old and is super sweet, friendly and hysterical.  We really want to find a home for her because if we take her to the humane league there is a chance they will put her to sleep.  We don't want that so if you are out there and want an awesome kitten please e-mail me - tjmousetis@me.com.  Thanks!
