DC Sunrise (c) 2004 William Lawrence
Welcome to Photo Notes – the new blog from Patty Hankins and Bill Lawrence of Hankins-Lawrence Images. We are photographers from Bethesda, MD. Most of our photos are landscape and nature photos taken in the Middle Atlantic Region of the US, including many photos of the Washington, DC area. Our photos are available through our website and at local art & craft shows.
We’re planning on using our new blog to keep you updated on what and where we’re photographing, provide some photo tips, and to let you know when and where we will be at shows.
We’d love to hear what you think about our photos and our blog. You can leave a comment, or email Patty directly at patty@hankinslawrenceimages.com

Congratulations! A new beginning!
Dear Patty & Bill,
Good luck with your new blog.
Ever since I found your web site I return and admire your landscapes and although I probably have seen all the photos that are to see, I keep coming back as they reveal a new detail to me every time I look at them. At one time I admire the light of the moment in time, another time the composition and the colors, or the serenity of the scene or the beauty of the creation of nature that you captured so uniquely.
All of them are beautiful and unique – a real treasure for any one who buys them. I hope to see the originals soon.

Thanks! I love hearing that you keep coming back to see our photos. I really appreciate how you see the light, the color, the serenity and the beauty. It’s what we’re really trying to capture – moments of beauty.

Patty,
Your pics are always so lovely. I really appreciate the info on snapping Xmas lights, since Bruce decorates so our house can be seen from a 747!
Congrats on the blog. I’ve bookmarked it.

Thanks. I think we need to see some photos of your holiday lights. So are you in RI or FL for the holidays?
Take care
