Early last year I shot my first boudoir mini session.  One of my girls was participating as a surprise for her boyfriend, Happy Valentine’s to him!!!  Well, apparently he loved the photos so much, as well as her, he put a ring on it!   So when Kristen emailed me about shooting her wedding, I was extremely gitty.    We met on a lovely day this past fall to shoot their engagement session.  Most of you in the area will recognize our background, the Culinary Institute of America.   I have been her many of times, but why can’t the bakery ever be open on weekends????

Anyway, thank you to Kristen and Darren for a FABULOUS and fun afternoon.  I can’t wait to shoot your special day!

Taking a look back to last fall, I met up with one of my fabulous couples for an engagement shoot.  It was a wonderful evening on the Hudson with amazing light.  We had some play time with their children, the furry and fluffy ones, and then off to the Walkway.  And lets talk about the shoes, I joked with Devon that she was going to blow the shoe photo up, poster size and hang it up over the bed.   The shoes were that FAB!!

I am so looking forward to their wedding this summer in Poughkeepsie.  See you two soon!

Finally, Rudy’s parents are legit!!  For those of you not familiar with Rudy, peek HERE.   There was NO doubt that the day was HOT, nothing went off 100% on the timeline, but I can say, the day was wonderful, the bride was gorgeous and the party was on!!    The wedding itself itself took place at Marist College, where the bride is an alumni.  Prior to the wedding, we hit up the groom’s alma mater, The CIA for their first look.  There is nothing better on one’s wedding day, than to see the look on the bride and groom as they see their spouse to be for the first time.  When Angus looked at Jenn, you can tell she took his breath away.

The reception took place at Rolling Greens at Dutchess Golf and Country Club, in Poughkeepsie.  It was my first time there, and I can’t wait to go back.  They treated me like gold so I can only imagine how well they treated the bridal party.

Congratulations again to Angus and Jennifer, all the best wishes to you and your life together in Atlanta!!

More to come!!!

I am super excited about working with this couple.  Not only because they are so darn cute together but because I went to college with the bride.  I spent 4 years with her at Southern and now I get to be with her as she celebrates such an important day in her life.  For their engagement shoot, we met up in a special town to them.  After 90 minutes of back road driving from NY to CT, I finally arrived in Litchfield, CT and was instantly in love.  I could shoot here all day.   This was the type of town where everyone says hello and and go away for a week, leaving their front doors unlocked.   It had such a warm and wonderful community feel.

Thank you Jenn and Ryan for trusting me with such a job and I look forward to October!
