Rebecca & Todd Engagement

I met with Todd & Rebecca on a cool morning last weekend.  They really wanted their engagement photos done outside, despite the wintry weather.  I was up for it when they said they wanted to meet in Bushnell Park – a favorite place of mine.  And although the session was short & sweet (since we were all freezing) they didn’t have a problem snuggling up and keeping warm!  Todd’s twins came along for some photos and some hot cocoa afterwords!  I’m looking forward to their wedding in Sept.  Not only because they are such a wonderful couple, but I know it will definitely be warmer too  :)

Also, you’ll notice a little change here on the blog.  This is one of the new features that I’ll be using to display pics.  All you do is click on one pic, it will enlarge the image and you can click through each one to view them.  Let me know what you think!

New York, New York

I first met with Michele and Enzo back in 2008. They wanted to hire me for their 10.10.10 wedding. So let’s just say this engagement session has been a long time coming! Michele really wanted to have their photos done in NYC because she’s really a city girl at heart :) .

I was up for the challenge because there are so many wonderful places to take pics there. We met in Central Park West for the beginning of the shoot, and ended in Time Square. We had beautiful weather and only one tiny setback (you never can predict traffic!). But other than that – it was amazing! They are such a dynamic couple you can’t help but be happy around them. Their zest for life is infectious. And their love for each other is unmistakable.

I almost went for a swim….

My favorite special I offer is a complimentary engagement session for anyone who is planning an upcoming wedding. I love meeting people before their wedding day and I feel there’s no better way than to have a “getting to know you session”. That’s waaay more fun than sitting down and having a consultation! I like people to get to know my style and see if we’re match. (no this isn’t the Dating Game!) This is how I met Candace and Greg. They’re planning a 2010 wedding. Shaun and I met them this weekend at Harkness State Park. They’re the SWEETEST couple. We heard about their love story and their upcoming wedding plans. We talked about our jobs and where we live. Oh yeah, and we took a bunch of pics too. They’re pretty sweet as well :)

We started in the greenhouse area, where I found out Candace has a Beautiful Smile… especially when she is in Greg’s arms.

This next series of three is my favorite little nook at Harkness.. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies. Great Expectations!

I was chasing this ray of sunlight around right from the moment I entered the gardens. I finally found the spot where it was hitting Greg and Candace perfectly. I love the warm glow of the sunlight on their skin against the cool shadows of the garden.

Every once in a while Shaun finds a pic where he likes to do a bit more with it. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don’t…. I love it in this image!!

These slideshows can be purchased on DVD or for ipod video. These are going to be a great addition for high school senior portrait sessions!! (wink, wink)
