It was so much fun to capture the love that these two have for one another. This session was filled with a lot of laughter, goofiness, and pure love. They even came prepared with hot chocolate, shooters, blankets, and "snuggle clothes"! Congrats to Ben & Liz ... we can't wait to be apart of your wedding!
These pictures are all the words I need ... a gorgeous wedding for a beautiful couple. Blessed to be apart of it! Congrats Alex and Jared! Best wishes to the two of you!
I could not be more honored to be apart of Hilary and Taylor's beyond cute proposal! Hilary had already scheduled her annual "Christmas Card" photo session with me when Taylor called and told me that he wanted to propose to Hilary during our session. Hilary kept making things complicated by changing the date of the photos more than once, but Taylor thought of everything -- having their puppy be apart of it, the sign and the cute saying on the sign, the plot to get Hilary away for a minute so that he could put the sign around Oly's neck, everything. All I did was help make the sign (with the help of a friend ... thanks Molly!) and showed up to capture the moment. After we took a couple of photos like normal, I asked Hilary if it would be alright I took a couple of "head shots" of her because "I've recently had an inquiry for business head shots and I don't have very many to show this potential client". Of course she agreed so I pulled Hilary away to take her business picture (I've included it below). Taylor and Brandon pretended to be playing with Oly when really they were getting out the sign, making sure the ring was ready to go, etc. After a couple of minutes, Hilary and I walked around the tree to see Taylor and Oly standing there waiting for her. Needless to say, what came next was magical. I was so unbelievably blessed to be apart of this. Wishing Hilary and Taylor all the best as they enjoy their engagement (they are celebrating in Thailand right now!) and while they plan their wedding. What a special time in their lives!
Congratulations to this darling senior! It was so fun to photograph Megan ... what an amazing, fun, and gorgeous girl. We took these at Cheeseman Park on a beautiful morning a couple of weeks ago ... the lighting, the flowers, the greenery, and that smile could not have been any more perfect. I wish you all the best finishing up your senior year!
Erica and I were close friends all through elementary school ... I remember constantly having sleep overs with her, spying on her brothers (yes, we were Harriet the Spy fans), and doing everything together. Because of this I was so honored when she asked me to photograph her wedding. This wedding was so much fun to photograph because not only did it bring back so many good memories, but I was able to catch up with many old friends that I have not seen in years! Erica is now a flight attendant who travels the world and lives in Virginia where she met her husband. I did not get to meet Trey until the wedding day, but as soon as I did, it was clear that they were perfect for each other. They decided to do a first look (which always makes me cry) and the pure laughter, tears, and joy made it so clear that they belong together. Erica and Trey got married at Hudson Garden's surrounded by friends and family, and they sure did throw quite the celebration! Didn't Erica make a stunning bride? Erica and Trey, I wish you nothing but the best. Congratulations and thank you so much for letting Brandon and me be apart of your special day!
It's that time of the year again! Senior portrait sessions are filling up, and I couldn't be more thrilled with how Paul's turned out! We took these photos at Three Pond Park on a beautiful afternoon last weekend. Paul and his parents were so wonderful to work with, and made our job a piece of cake! Wishing Paul the best of luck as he finishes his last year of high school ... congratulations to the class of 2016!
You might remember Chelsie and Chase from their wedding that I photographed in October of 2013. Well, now they are awaiting the day when they get to welcome a sweet baby boy and grow their family to a family of three! I couldn't be more excited for them! Chelsie is one stunning mama, wouldn't you say?! Stay tuned for new born photos after they are home from the hospital!
It was so much fun photographing this lovely family again! I photographed them about a year and a half ago at when Quincy was just a little guy. Now he's two and half, and has the biggest vocabulary of any two year old I have ever met! It is so much fun to get to photograph multiple generations in a photo session, and it is so much fun to get to photograph a family that you've photographed before! Thank you so much to the Matthews family for a wonderful shoot!
