Taylor and Sly: A Westport, CT Engagement

I met Taylor and Sly through a mutual friend. Who happens to be on her way to her own bridal shower today. Congrats to our good friends Christina and Nitin! Anyhow, Taylor had contacted me for her May 2010 wedding this past spring. I was so stoked that Christina had referred us and was even more excited when I met these two love birds and saw how in love these two were.

We met this past weekend in Westport, CT to do their engagement session. I checked the forecast that day and it said, sunny and clear.... but I forgot to read the temperature. It was a chilly 45 degrees when we arrived. And Taylor was wearing a short blue dress, and Sly, a short sleeve shirt. Things warmed up pretty quickly and we had some fun running around this coastal Connecticut town. Check em out!

I choose Westport because it's got some great textures, colors, and is located somewhat between where we all lived.... not! Actually, when I mapped the location, I saw this street below and just had to have this shot.

mmmmm Tiffany & Co., a girls dream come true, a man's credit card black hole... Don't ask me how I know, Audrey and Addi may come after me.

This shot is teh win!

Taylor had asked me that morning if there were any places with flowers to take photos. I thought I had seen a garden while driving in that morning but it turned out to be a planter with weeds growing out of it.... I totally mcgyver'd this shot. =)

Taylor and Sly,

Thanks for coming up to meet me for your engagements session. We'll see you at Christina and Nitin's wedding in November!

Erin and Patrick: A Connecticut engagement

I met Erin and Patrick at Kent Falls State Park last friday for a beautiful afternoon engagement session. We had a blast running around all over the park. I'd definitely got there again. Here are a few of our favorites.


































Erin and Patrick,

See you in September! Woohoo!

Pam and Dave: An Engagement session

I met with Pam and Dave, the winners of our 2009 wedding photography giveaway, this weekend for their engagement session in Cold Spring, NY. I was stoked about doing a shoot in this really neat town on the Hudson River, just across from the USMA at West Point. They are our first couple that didn't want to do a shoot at a park or botanical garden so I was just itching to find some awesome color and textures... and believe me, we found tons of color!

Pam and Dave, thanks for being great guinea pigs! Can't wait to see you guys in August!
