Stephanie and Dan are soon-to-be-married in September, and I can't wait for their wedding. They are sweet and obviously very much in love. When Dan leaned down to kiss Stephanie's shoulder near the end of the session, I knew the photo would be awesome.
I always try to capture the natural caresses of couples, because it's the little things that make each couple unique and memorable.
Looking forward to your wedding, Stephanie and Dan!
Erin is a girl after my own heart. She adores reading and wanted a low-key wedding that didn't make her guests feel deprived in any way. Both Erin and her now husband, Nitsuh, spectacularly succeeded in this endeavor.
I'm still in awe of their decor. Minus the beautiful flowers from Scarlet Petal, everything, including the books for the guests were DYI. And the food...*sigh* IT WAS AMAZING. North Pond really outdid themselves.
How do I keep getting amazing couples like Erin and Nitsuh? They make me so happy, especially the photos of Nitsuh dancing. He's such a cutie!
Well enough from me. Get ready to see some photos of a LOVELY and charming wedding.
Congrats!!
Big thanks to my second shooter, Maggie Rife.

I have a big goofy grin on my face and I don't even know these people! They are so adorable and look so happy to be married! My favorite shot is the one where he is spinning her and the little ribbons on her dress are flying up. The expression on his face is so cute! You did such a an amazing job capturing this wonderful wedding!

(08.27.10 @ 11:07 PM)Seriously, I've never seen a bad photo from you. These are amazing. The one of Tiffany outside with Josh scrambled in the background should be submitted to a magazine!

(08.30.10 @ 09:08 AM)Awesome Images as usual. I love the grain in you B&Ws
(08.30.10 @ 02:20 PM)I love it when the bride and groom send each other notes before the wedding, I think that it can offer great photo moments and it also speaks to the deepness of their relationship. Those types of things will always be treasured between them, even if that were their last note to each other.
Your photographs are beautiful and really show the joy of the occasion, thanks for sharing a preview of your work.
(08.31.10 @ 02:30 PM)Gor-or-geous!
(09.01.10 @ 08:21 PM)Lovely images and the brides expression are priceless :)
(09.03.10 @ 12:16 AM)Such WONDERFUL emotion. I love the tow shots of his reaction to her walking down the aisle. And the one of them holding out their hands for rain cracked me up!! Well done!
