Mala & Will - Lyman Orchards -CT ENGAGEMENT SESSION PHOTOGRAPHER-

Still behind with blogging and trying to everyone's post up. Here is Mala and Will's Engagement Session we shot at Lyman Orchards. It was a beautiful day. I am totally loving the first set of shots. Check them out :-) Don't forget to check out their entire shoot in the slideshow below. Come back soon to see their beautiful wedding day.

Mala is a huge Twilight fan so we had to get a fitting ring shot.

See, beautiful day!

Jennifer & Robert- Engagement Session- Amherst, MA

Jennifer and Robert are such a sweet couple.  After reading their Get to know you, I thought it would be so cool to shoot their e-session at the very place that started their "Once upon a time"  I was elated when Jennifer e-mailed me and asked if we could shoot it their as well.  PERFECT!  It was a misty day when we arrived.  Showers were coming but that was stopping us. 

Love the texture of this door and for good measure, I layered in some more texture ;-P

Now this door is a VERY SPECIAL door.  This is the door that takes you into North Hall.  This is where they met as they were both assigned dorm rooms in this building.  So in a nutshell; this was THEIR building.  This is where it all began ;-)

Across from their building I spotted this cool red hot fire hydrant.  What a beautiful contrast to the blue!

In this questionnaire I give to my couples to fill so I can get to know them a little better.  They mentioned how they love scrabble.  So I made sure to tell them to bring their scrabble game along with them.  Their names worked out awesomely!  Check out their ring shot!

So by the end of out session the misty drops became heavier and thicker.  I asked if they knew of any tunnels or walkthoughs that we could take cover in.  Rob remembered this tunnel in one of the bike trails.  So cool and white.  I love the shots we got in here. 

Thanks for showing me around the campus Jen & Rob.  I can't wait for you wedding.  The paella sounds delicious!

Gillian and Michael - Engagement Session - Mystic, CT

Gillian and Michael met in College, Western Connecticut State University to be exact. If you really want details it was in Newbury Hall room 20 which was a friend's dorm room. It's been a little over 10 years ago, now they will marry their best friend. (Eachother)

We meet up at Mystic Aquarium for their engagement session. Michael is a huge fan of fish. A great fisherman and musician. I couldn't believe how he knew about so many species of fish. It was great to see how excited he was to see certain fish in the tanks. Here is a recap of the day. Don't forget to check out the slideshow with Gillian and Michael's song selection for their first dance.

Love the unintentional color scheme going on here.

Michael shared that he was apprehensive, shy and a little nervous about this photoshoot. Yeah right! Check these two out getting it on!

Looking forward to the wedding!

E-Session: Marissa and Mike

They grew up in the same town.  Just minutes away from each other.  Their paths had crossed time and time but they didn't meet until one fateful day through friends.  Now they are inseparable.  Supposedly Mike was camera shy but I think they both did great and the camera loved them!  So do I!  

I loved these doors!

My trigger finger is still killing me from this ring shot ;-)

Thanks Marissa and Mike!  I am so lucky to be your photographer and I can't wait for your wedding :-)  Enjoy your slideshow!

Melinda & Tom E-Session

Ahhhhh, Melinda and Tom. Such a sweet story. The were both young teenagers in high school. Fate would take them to the same location on this particular day. Where: A high school party. So how did fate bring them together? Well, the cops showed up to bust this party up! Everyone made like eggs a scrambled outta there (something like that you catch my drift). People were running and jumping. Jumping over a chain link fence. Everyone but poor Melinda, who got stuck on the fence. But not to worry; good ol' knight and shining armor Tom came to her rescue! Now they will live happily ever after. Sweet story right. :-)

So for the engagement session we went shot right across the street from Tom's high school. I had a great time checking out lighting situations all through the shoot while Melinda and Tom just forgot I was there. No, really they would forget I was there. All the better to capture them though. So enjoy some of my favs and the slideshow. I can't wait for your Wedding Day Melinda and Tom!!!

She's a Boston Red Sox Fan.  He is a New York Yankee Fan.  Since I am a Yankee Fan.  (Yeah that's right, Back off Eric Foley!)  I only thought it was more than fitting to get a Yankee style ring shot.  

A rock on a rock ;-)

The very last leaf on the tree!

I love capturing hands especially with beautiful engagement/wedding rings :-)

My absolute FAVORITE of the session!

Isn't she gorgeous?!

Another thing I love is reflections.  Are you proud of me Carla? ;-)

Enjoy the show :-)  Music Credit: Jason Mraz - I'm Yours
