DARLENE & MASON: ENGAGEMENT

I met her in college when we became roommates.  And from the very beginning, she was one of the best.  Our rooms were adjacent to each other and every time we’d cross paths in the hallway, the conversations were always long. She was there when I was single without a dating prospect in sight, a…

DARLENE & MASON: BEHIND THE SCENES

I think it’s just part of our routine now. I’m the main photographer and j’s the second photographer/master assistant/comedic relief. And since the very beginning, the comedic relief has typically come in the form of j trying to sneak into my images. Sometimes I’m lucky enough to catch him when he’s not looking in my…

AN ENGAGEMENT STORY

I’d been wanting one for a long time.  A promo video that is.  And when I saw Kiera Faye’s work for the first time, I knew I wanted to work with her.  We set up a meeting and got to chatting about what a promo video for me might look like, and that’s when it…

THE AMAZING PROJECT: SNEAK PEEK

I don’t think I’ve ever posted a sneak peek with a full post of images.  Until now.  And that’s because this particular engagement session is not just your average engagement session.  It’s part of a much bigger project and it’s about so much more than just a handful of my favorite images.  We’re getting really…

JENN & ROB: ENGAGEMENT

It’s like a Legally Blonde kind of story, minus Elle Woods.  And Bruiser of course.  Jenn and Rob met in law school in California and have been inseparable ever since.  And since Jenn is originally from New Jersey, it’s even more reason to believe that these kind of chance meetings aren’t even by chance at…

LAURIN.BRETT

Even from that first email I received from Laurin, I just knew there was something special about her.  And that first phone call, when I felt like I was talking to an old friend, rather than a complete stranger.  And when she text me within hours of getting engaged to let me know everything was…

THIS ONE’S FOR YOU, J

I just need to say it.  It’s so nice having my blog back!  I wasn’t able to make any changes to anything for 2 days and honestly, I think I had withdrawals.  Sometimes blogging can seem like a chore, but when you don’t have the option of doing it, you start to miss it.  At…

EMILY & SEAN: ENGAGEMENT

I remember it clearly. It was my birthday and I got an email from Emily’s mom. She wanted to let me know that Emily was about to get engaged and inquired about my availability for a wedding date to be. And I was ecstatic. I kept telling everyone it was one of my favorite birthday…

LIZZ & EDDIE: ENGAGEMENT

I remember it clearly. It was a Tuesday evening and J and I were getting ready to meet up with Lizz and Eddie to discuss their upcoming wedding. And that’s when J dropped the bomb on me. “Just to let you know, they’re all Yankee fans.” “Are you serious?” I said. And he was. He…

DANIELLE.GLENN & BELLA (NOT THE ONE FROM TWILIGHT)

I love serendipitous moments. I don’t know if I’ve ever used the word “serendipity” in a sentence until just now, but somehow it was the first word I thought of when thinking about how I met Danielle. Danielle went to high school with J. Way back when. Ha ha- I only kid you two (:…
