Jason and Jennifer - Engagement Session - Lyman Orchard, CT

They had the same group of friends for years but in May 2008 that all changed.  Jennifer and Jason both attended a BBQ where they started to talk.  Eventually they began e-mailing each other, calling each other and dating.  The rest is history. 

Jennifer and Jason were so much fun to shoot at Lyman Orchards.   Since Jennifer is a huge fan of Sunflowers we started off there! 

(Side note: Doesn't beautiful Jennifer remind you of Alexis Bledel?) 

When we first walked in I almost immediately noticed this sunflower that resembled a heart.  I thought it was perfect for Jennifer's ring.  There were a gazillion bees buzzing around and I'm surprise I didn't pass out from the many times I panicked.  
Stunning, stunning, stunning!



I love shooting hands; they are so personal and really tell a story.

This random cat totally showed up during the shoot.  So what does Val do?  Go with it :-)
I had so much fun.  I am really looking forward to the wedding.  Be sure to check out the slide show where Jason shows his cool Frisbee Golf trick, lol.
