Kathleen & Nick's Engagement Lighthouse Point Park, New Haven, CT

Kathleen and Nick have known each other their entire lives.  They have planned a beautiful oceanside wedding in 2012.  They wanted their engagement photos to be taken at the beach at which Nick proposed to Kathleen.  This beach is one Kathleen and her family visited throughout her childhood and holds a special place in her heart.  Now, thanks to Nick, she has another extra-special memory of Eastern Point Beach.

Here is the park bench on which Nick proposed to Kathleen

Can you tell how much fun we had that evening?  We were so lucky to have a beautiful sunset too.

Karen & Bill's Engagement - Evergreen Walk South Windsor, CT

Karen and Bill's first date involved outlet shopping.  So what better place to take engagement pictures than The Loft!  Ann Taylor's corporate office was generous enough to give us permission to photograph in their store.  Karen and Bill even took a turn at being mannequin in the store window!

Thank you Liza for your willingness to help and have fun with us!

Easter Egg Hunt

It's so much fun to continue all of the old traditions with the next generation.  I thought we would have to try to save a couple of the eggs aside so Adeline could find her share, but I never should have doubted her!  I should have worried more about her older brother!  This girl is determined to get what she wants!

Fall, apple picking and babies! What could be better than this?

Christina & Dennis's Wedding - Sturbridge Host Hotel, Sturbridge, MA

I had the honor of photographing Christina and Dennis's wedding at the Sturbridge Host Hotel.  Lise at the Host is such a help.  She took care of every detail so the bride and groom could just enjoy their day. They were so lucky to have a beautiful sunny day in the midst of a week of rain! Christina was such a fun bride.  Loved, loved, loved the blue shoes!

Alta Moda did Christina's hair and make-up and she looked absolutely fabulous!

 Their website seems to be down, so here's a link with their address and phone number. 

  

Christina's and Dennis's favors were created by Cookie Creatives.  They were amazing and were the talk of the reception!  I know I am going to call Jennifer the next time I have an occasion to celebrate.  Her cookie creations are truly a work of art.

And for the guys....

OK.  You've gotta love the hot pink garter!  Her colors looked great together and made such a colorful room.

I had so much fun at their wedding.  Their friends and families were great, not to mention my man, Bodie.  What a trooper!  and what an expert dancer for a four-year-old!
