My name is Aaron Riddle and I am a professional photographer residing in Winchester, Virginia. I specialize in wedding photography, portrait photography and special event photography needs.
I tell stories through my photography by capturing candid moments and preserving them in time to show the beauty of a wedding, the happiness of an event or intimacy of a kiss shared by a newly-engaged couple.

Client: Local Phi Theta Kappa Chapter
Project Details: A local Phi Theta Kappa chapter (PTK student honor society) at a nearby community college requested that I design a logo for their fundraising campaign to be launched in the fall of 2009. The premise and slogan behind the campaign is “Your change can change lives”. This slogan comes from a story told by the chapter’s advisor of how he collected spare change in a jar to help fund a family member’s College education from when she was born until she graduated high school.

Sketch Name: Baghead Sports Jersey Guy Cartoon
Thoughts While Sketching: This sketch was spurred initially by the professional football fans that wear bags on their heads when their teams are horrible (Saints fans, I’m looking at you).

Photo Shoot Location: Winchester, Virginia
Photo Shoot Date: August 8, 2009
Photo Shoot Details: During the evening I often spend time outdoors with my two daughters (one and three years old). This particular evening we were chasing moths around a bush in our backyard, when a monarch butterfly happened to flutter on by. It would land on flowers nearby, and fly away once my three-year-old rushed over to see it. She said that she wanted me to take a photograph of it, so I did not want to disappoint her. I waited for the butter fly to land, and snapped the above shot.

Photo Shoot Location: Middletown, Virginia
Photo Shoot Date: August 5, 2009
Photo Shoot Details: I took this photograph around 6:20 a.m. in Middletown, Virginia. The colors of the sun and the sky caught my eye as I was driving towards route 11, so I had to park my car on the side of the road and snap this one. My pants got a little wet from the morning dew on the high grass, but it was well worth it.

Sketch Name: Angry Twitter Bird
Thoughts While Sketching: There seems to be a lot of ranting and venting that goes on via Twitter. I know I see many-a-tweet from those I follow ranting about computer problems, political issues and everyday annoyances. This sketch of a twitter bird reflects that mindset when rant-a-tweeting (new term!).
