Nicole & Matt - Married - Woodwinds, Branford, CT

Here are my favorites from Nicole and Matt's Wedding Day. Nicole's Sister Lisa did a beautiful job with her Make - Up and hair. Lisa is a celebrity Make-Up artist and heads up the make-up dept. for E! Entertainment in Los Angeles, CA. She was recently featured in a few magazines and blogs. If you're interested in reading more click here. I love how close this family is as well as talented.

So of course we started with Nicole getting ready. Take a look at how beautiful she is!

I love to watch the reaction from the bride as well as the groom when they see each other for the first time on their wedding day.

Matt's ring was a little snug. Check out the play by play. :-)

After their ceremony we headed over to the Woodwinds in Branford. Their grounds are perfect for beautiful wedding day images.

Doesn't the cake look scrumptious!

Thanks so much Nicole and Matt. I had fun. Special Thanks to Nikki Nicole teaming up with me on Nicole's special day. Enjoy the slide show!

Krystyna & Kenny - Engaged

They meet through mutual friends; had dinner at Ruby Tuesday's and the rest was history.  She could light up a room with her beautiful smile or as Kenny would put it; her smile is like the sun.  I met Krystyna and Kenny for the first time on the day of their engagement session.  I felt as if I have know them for years.  She told me about the house they bought together and how hard they have been working on it.  She also told me all about their baby; Mishu (their Yorkie).  Krystyna is also an avid gardener and what a green thumb she has.  It absolutely made sense to start their session at home!

Mishu was so FUNNY!  As soon as the shutter would stop he was like ATTACK CANON MARK II!

Out in front of their home sweet home.

Gorgeous!

Yeah, I was totally loving the wind and light.

New Cologne Ad anyone?  Call me.... LOL.

Yep, I was so excited about the light; I was talking like a chipmunk on crack again.

Those eyes!

Had a great time Krystyna and Kenny!  Even though Mighty Ranger kicked us out, lol.

Enjoy the show!

Melissa & Marty - Married - Lighthouse Point, New Haven, CT

When Jay Fleming of Fleming Portrait Design contacted me on helping him out with a family member's wedding at Lighthouse Point Park in New Haven I was more than honored.  It's difficult when your a guest and a photographer to enjoy yourself as the guest so to help ease the tension Laura Landau and I pitched in.  

Melissa and Marty are such a great couple.  Marty should have actually been named Jack because he is literally a "Jack of all trades"  He and Melissa coordinated the wedding themselves!  What a beautiful job they did. 

Being that there were two other photographers besides myself; gave me the flexible to play with my settings during the ceremony and spot meter for different areas to get such different outcomes with my images.  The sun was setting, the sky was gorgeous and there was so much love in the air.  Really there was........:-)  Enjoy

I love the sunset and love...what a great combination!!!

Check out the gorgeous details!!!!

What a beautiful moment!

As alway I had a difficult time choosing my favorite ring shot.  I would love to see who can figure where all these ring shots were taken.  Show me some blog love with an answer and I will announce and send out a prize to a lucky winner :-)

Thanks Jay for thinking of me to help you out with this :-)  Thanks Marty and Melissa and congratulations!
