Caitlin and Jeff

What a gorgeous late-afternoon/evening (The best time for a portrait session by the way - that is, unless you wake up at 6AM) spent with Caitlin and Jeff wandering around the Upper West Side of NYC.  It was a special occassion for sure - Jeff had just shaved off his beard (a thick, man-envy inspiring thing), and it was nearly the anniversary of their becoming engaged.  That, and this day would also include Owen (their wonderful pooch) in the documentary spree.  

 

In addition to an absolutely pleasant stroll through Riverside Park, we trekked up to the rooftop of their building for some incredible views together.  I thank them for being so open and adventurous and for that, I think we made some really great photos together.  I'm super excited about their upcoming wedding at Bridgewaters. Going to be a hoot!  You can see more photos here.

Amber and Russell

This weekend is finally Amber and Russell's wedding! I'm so looking forward to their day, and I wanted to share a couple of my favorites from their engagement session back in chilly November.

 

There are days when I realize full on that I am incredibly lucky. Photographing Amber and Russell was one of those days. Not only was the weather perfect, but after spending just a few minutes with these two people, things just clicked. I could tell that we share the same goofy sense of humor and I felt like we'd already been friends for years. And so, instead of spending the post gushing over how many things we have in common, and how awesome this couple's wedding is going to be, I wanted to share Amber's perspective and let her do the talking.

 

"Russell and I met six years ago at none other than a wedding! For five years we flew back and forth between where I was going to college and where Russell was stationed for the Army, making the best of our time together, even when it was distanced by deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. A couple days after he returned from Afghanistan, Russell flew into Baltimore and proposed to me- I was beyond excited and surprised! And so the wedding planning began..

During our engagement shoot, Lindsay made sure that she got shots of all the areas of Baltimore that we loved and had so many creative ideas. She put our somewhat camera-shy selves at ease, and made the shoot such a fun experience- even our dog who we wanted in the shoot seemed to have a great time!"

 

 

See you Sunday!
