Erin + Matt: Married! Sept. 3rd, 2011

Jeannine + Kevin

Just a small preview of the Kevin and Jeannine's wedding on May 14th, 2011 at the Hayloft in Rockwood, PA.  It was gorgeous despite the rain!

Kristin + Jeff: Engaged!

A few photos from the engagement session with Kristin and Jeff in Havre de Grace.  For the first half of the session we shot at her father's historic 1835 home.  The house was gorgeous and there were quite a few lovely spots to choose from.  Their dog, Dublin, even accompanied them and cooperated for a few of the shots with the help of one of his favorite snacks... pretzels!  For the second half of the session, we made a quick drive over to Tidings Park and the promenade next to the water.  The boats were such a pretty back drop for their shoot.  I felt like being next to the water was a bit of foreshadowing since I'll be shooting their wedding this summer in Jamaica!  I know the wedding will be a blast because they were such a fun couple to work with :-)

Kristin + Neil

What do you do when one of your best friends gets engaged?  Well, after you're done jumping up and down you take their photos!  I'm so happy for Kristin and Neil.  They've been together for almost 7 years and they are a perfect couple (and I'm not saying that because I'm biased or anything!) 

Even though it started raining a bit, it didn't stop us from shooting!  The umbrella was a cute prop and protected them from getting too wet.  Luckily the sun came back within a few minutes and gave us some gorgeous golden light!
