Thanks for checking out my blog!

I'm using this space to post recent work and updates at Jennifer Langdon Photography.

A little bit about me -

My photography is all done on location. I work with my clients to choose a location that suits their family and will provide a great background for the pictures.

My style is a combination of photojournalism and creative portraiture. I love to capture natural expressions along with documenting life at that specific moment. Whether it's being silly, serious, blowing out the candles or walking down the isle.

My goal is to capture pictures you will look back on and smile!

Feel free to roam around here, leave a comment or send me an email. I look forward to capturing the moments in your life!

Rebecca & Todd Engagement

Wednesday, January 20, 2010 Posted in 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

Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Posted in Engagement

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….

Tuesday, June 16, 2009 Posted in Engagement

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 just love this moment!

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!!

Susan & Luis

Tuesday, June 2, 2009 Posted in Engagement, Wedding Photography

Another great engagement session this week! I’m so excited about the weddings I’ll be shooting this year! All the couples Shaun and I have met with recently are so great. We’re in for such a fun wedding season.
I don’t think there was a better location to have had this session. Gillette Castle in East Haddam just seemed to fit them.
A little background – Luis and Susan are into performing and let’s just say they’re really good at it! I didn’t have to ask them to “do” anything. They just did it! They posed themselves, they hugged, they laughed and they joked around a little. Ok….a lot actually. But that’s just them. And I captured that quite a few times. I could have made this blog post just on the “out takes”. And believe me, it would have been hilarious!

Aren’t they naturals in front the camera?

SO here is how the next three pictures fit together.. follow the dialog below
Shaun: “Susan, you have amazing eyes!”
Susan: “Wow, thank you”
Luis: “Yes, she has bedroom eyes!”
Susan: Gives Luis that look that Shaun knows all to well (see second pic)
Shaun: “Oh, Jenn nailed that shot.. this is definite blog material”
Everyone: laughing (pic 3 of this series)

And THIS is my personal favorite…After taking pics outside, Shaun said “think we might be able to go inside?” We walked in and we were not welcomed with open arms. But I found this couch and HAD to use it. I got this shot by standing in the MENS bathroom doorway and dodging an usher or two. So worth it!!
