Amanda and Jim- Trash the Dress "TTD"

I am so excited to post these pictures. Austin and I had soooo much fun with Amanda and Jim this past Sunday at the Ocean City Boardwalk in Ocean City, NJ for their Trash the Dress session. Amanda and Jim gave us complete creative freedom, and they were up for any idea I had. This session was so much fun, I really could not wait to get home and start editing them. Creative freedom also meant that I got to play with my new toys including off camera lighting and my new lensbaby that Austin bought me for my birthday.

For those of you who don't know what a Trash the Dress session is, this is a chance for you to get back into that gorgeous wedding gown of yours and head out to take some photos in it without worrying about it getting dirty. I have to say that Trash the Dress sessions might be my favorite thing to shoot, because we can relax, have some fun, and shoot some photos. So, I'm going to warn you.... I had A LOT of favorites from this session so there are going to be a lot of photos..... enjoy...








We know how I love pink...












How gorgeous is Amanda?





















Lensbaby at f2.0 .. I love this one

Just for fun.. Austin's turn and a sneak peek

If you have been following my blog for a while you probably have seen This post where I showed a photo of myself in the background with a big goofy smile talking about how much I love photographing couples. Well, It looks like the tables have turned. Tonight while I was editing Amanda and Jim's Trash the Dress photos, (stay tuned this week for more photos from their session), I found this lovely photo with Austin in the background with, yup thats right.... a big goofy smile on his face. He is going to kick my a** when he sees this post tomorrow. (He's asleep on the couch with Lola right now), but it was too funny not to share.

Debbie and Alan-Married Williamstown, NJ

Debbie and Alan got hitched on Friday at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church in Williamstown, NJ. The sun was shining all day, and the weather was perfect for a great summer wedding. The inside of the Church was gorgeous and had a huge mural on the ceiling. I love being inside pretty churches. After the wedding we went over to the reception at Masso's Knights on Columbus in Williamstown. Austin and I had a great time shooting this wedding for such a fun couple.

Debbie and Alan- Engaged

Last Sunday Austin and I met up with Alan and Debbie at the Washington Lake Park in Washington Township, NJ to take some engagment pictures of the couple. Debbie and Alan were troopers bearing with the high heat and humidity, but it didn't stop us from having a good time. Don't these two have the best smiles? We had a great time shooting with them, and it was nice to be around a couple that really enjoys each other's company. Debbie and Alan both wore their Phillies gear, and Austin and I love having some other Phillies fans around! We took advantage of the baseball field at the park, and we even had Alan's sister bring their puppy up to the field to be in some of the shots. Debbie and Alan's wedding is this Friday and we can't wait to see them again.
