cindy & jeff…

July 25, 2010

Last night was I met Cindy & Jeff for their engagement session. We have been planning this for so long but the weather has had other plans. Seriously, who wants to get their pictures taken when the humidity is 90% and the temps are even higher? So last night, was below 90, and we had a plan. Then are plan was almost thwarted when the skies got pretty dark around 5:00 pm. Flexibility is definitely key when planning an out-door photography session and they were definitely flexible. We decided to make the call in a half hour and what do you know? By then the sun was shining! We started the session at their home with their baby, Naomi (their dog, who was very friendly!) We then went down to the beach to complete the session — it was beautiful there and so were they! I had so much fun. I hope you did too. I can’t wait for your wedding — what an awesome way to ring in the new year! Here’s a sneak peak….







I love Jeff's smile here!

I am so….

lucky!!! In just 24 hours, I was able to photograph two happy couples. I just finished uploading and backing up my session with Cindy and Jeff — it was awesome. While I am too exhausted to begin editing the session, I just had to share one image from tonight. It’s or should I say they are beautiful! Stay tuned there will be a longer post to follow….

We made it….

just before the rain! When Jen and Brian arrived at my house, a few sprinkles of rain began to fall. Jen said, “what’s a few sprinkles?” It was that care fee attitude that made this shoot such a success. Both Jen and Brian are so easy going, which made things easy for me — even when I called Brian “Steve”, oh about four times! I am so sorry about that! Brian’s children were great as well. His daughter even suggested spots and shots for us — thanks Kelsey! Fortunately as soon as those sprinkles stopped shortly after we began, and held off until we were done. The overcast sky worked in our favor, as we didn’t need to worry about any harsh sun. Here’s a preview of their engagement session. They all looked great and were naturals in front of the camera! I can’t wait for next June.






so much fun!!!

I had so much fun meeting up with an old friend highschool (and college) friend and her too little munchkins yesterday. These kiddos had tons of energy, but I think they had fun too! It was a gorgeous day and we picked a wonderful place. We ended it at the carousel, which was a hit. Hopefully the carousel man finally showed up, but to my delite he wasn’t there yet and I was able to get some great shots without it actually moving! lol Here’s a glimpse to the shoot. There’s much more to but this is a good start. Seriously, they were like models — so adorable!






I had a wonderful shoot this morning and couldn’t wait to post a something quick — there’s lots more to follow! :-) They are super cute!

Had to share…..

I almost forgot….

to post this wonderful session to my blog! I was in such a rush before vacation that a few sessions have still not made it to my blog. Nonetheless this session turned out awesome, as these two brothers rocked it! They were so photogenic, despite the heat. The location, provided some good shade and also good light for a late morning shoot (which would not have worked out just anywhere). Here’s a glimpse of the session….




two princesses….

Remember that adorable little redhead? Well these lovely ladies are both the sister and cousin of that little cutie! As you can see it was their First Holy Communion and they looked gorgeous! Both were beautiful and had so much grace in their fancy dresses. It was a fantastic night, and we had a wonderful backdrop. It was a treat to photograph these girls in all their spendor!




so sweet….

Once again, I am way behind in blogging my photo sessions! I thought I would start with this adorable little one year-old. Isn’t she sweet? These were taken at her sister’s first communion a month or so ago — I just couldn’t resist capturing her with all of her adorable hats. She was not shy at all and I loved that! Of course I am partical to red heads, seeing that my first born son is a red head (and to this day I wonder where the red hair came from, but I LOVE it!)
