June 25, 2011 - Ellen & John's Wedding

Last Saturday was such a great time! I had the privilege of photographing Ellen & John at their amazing beach wedding up in Chatham, Massachusetts! Being on the Cape, they could have not picked a better spot! It was just gorgeous and the sky opened up and the sun came out just in time for their wedding! Their hand written vows brought a tear to my eye and a smile to my face. To top things off they had a Clam Bake where their guests enjoyed freshly cooked lobsters, clams, oysters and other crustaceans from Sam and the other fine folks at Clambakes Etc.

Here's a sneak peak, the rest of the photos will be up soon!

Enjoy!

A walk in the park!

I had the great pleasure of taking a walk today during my lunch break.

I love being outside and the fall weather makes it that much nicer! The leaves are turning, I had my hiking sandals on and my camera in hand...what could be better? I didn't really have anything in mind while shooting, just playing with my camera and doing what I love.

On my walk back to my car I noticed a small group of people up ahead of me on the trail. They were stopped and kind of circling around each other. My first thought was that someone was hurt! As I walked a little faster I noticed that they weren't hurt at all, in fact they were all smiling! It was a family of 4 and a photographer. The photographer seemed to be having such a great time trying to entertain the kids and get them to look at her camera. The baby noises, ohhs and ahhs, blowing raspberries...she was having such fun! Or at least it looked it to me! I said hi to everyone as I walked by (and yes, thought to myself...my lens is bigger..lol) and continued down the trail with a huge smile on my face.

I am a photographer and I LOVE IT!

I know I have said it in previous posts but I just can't help but share what an amazing feeling it is to be asked to share in people's lives. People ask us photographers to celebrate their love together, to witness devotion, capture pregnancies, be there when their infants are born, watch their children grow-up, party at their family reunions...all this through the lens of my camera and in the mind of my creativity. To my brides, grooms, mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, grandmas and grandpas and everyone - Thank you! Thank you for allowing me to do what I absolutely love! :)

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Daigle who were married this past Saturday in Thompson, CT!

I had a wonderful time shooting their wedding and am so grateful they chose me to be their photographer! They couldn't have chosen a nicer venue, at Lord Thompson Manor the staff were so kind and very helpful! A special Thank you to Jacklyn, Ted, Lou Ann and the many others at the Manor who were amazing! :) The attention to detail that Lord Thompson Manor paid to their wedding was really incredible and much appreciated. Jim and Bob, the DJ's from Romantic Entertainment, rocked the night away with an excellent playlist and upbeat energy to really get the party going!

I had a very difficult time narrowing this post to 5 photos, but please enjoy! Comments welcome of course! :)

Love: Interpreted - A Women's Photography Show

This past Friday I had the pleasure of attending my friend Tina Parsadaov's Photography Show. It was great! It wasn't only great to see her, but to mingle with countless photographers was a lot of fun and only heightened my determination to make the move toward full time Photography. I also had the pleasure of briefly meeting the also talented Val McCormick! I only wished I was able to stay longer in time to meet and hopefully chat with some of the other talent that was there including; Jacklyn Greenberg, Jo Kaplan Lee, Mary Marantz, Jane Shauck, Krystal Prue, Carla Ten Eyck and Nikki Nicole Ronaldi. Tina also pointed out that Steve DePino was there too, who I'm incredible excited is photographing my brother's wedding this coming February!

The Show is running from December 5th to January 3rd at Artspace Middletown (650 Main Street) It's wicked easy to get to and worth checking out!

I can't wait to get more of my wedding shots up here! Please check back often and I will post them as soon as I get them from Carrie!
