Crystal and Jeff-Married

On Sunday, Austin and I spent the day at the Valleybrook Golf Club in Blackwood, NJ. This is the first time that I got to shoot at Valleybrook, and it is literally blocks from where we live. I started the day at Crystal and Jeff's house with the girls and Austin spent some time with the guys getting ready at Jeff's parent's house.

Crystal and Jeff had the most beautiful day for an outdoor ceremony. The sun was shining and the sky was as blue as ever. Crystal looked beautiful, and the look on Jeff's face as she headed down the isle said it all.

Crystal and Jeff had great families that made us feel so welcome, and we were even pulled onto the dancefloor for the last song of the night by Jeff's parents. I hope Crystal and Jeff are having a great time on their honeymoon in Riviera Maya Mexico.

What a perfect day

Crystal and Jeff - Engaged

Last Sunday we went down to Haddon Lake Park in Haddonfield, NJ to shoot Crystal and Jeff's engagement session. Crystal and Jeff brought along Deuce, their dog, to be in some of the photos. Well, there were so many things for him to be excited about that he was tough to get in a photo. He also happened to be incredibly strong, so Jeff was getting pulled around while we tried to get a few shots with him in it. The great thing about having a silly dog around is that they always make you laugh. Crystal and Jeff are getting married this Sunday, and I can't believe their wedding has creeped up on us so fast. The weather is looking to be gorgeous for this Sunday, and I know that it is going to be a perfect day for these two.

And now... here are a few of my favorites:

Jena and Joe - Engaged Wilmington,DE

Today... yes, you heard that correctly Today, we went down to Wilmington, DE to meet up with Jena and Joe for their engagement photos at the stables where their horses are kept. I can't even begin to talk about how cool this place was to shoot at. Austin and I could have stayed there all day because we had so many ideas. It was our longest e-session ever, but we couldnt get enough of this place.

Jena and Joe each have their own horse. I haven't really spent much time around horses before, and I was a little apprehensive, but they were very friendly. Austin and I were impressed with how well behaved they were and how they weren't scared of the cameras. Joe even offered to put a saddle on the horse so that I could go for a ride, but I was being a wimp and took a rain check. I've never been on a horse before so I am definitely going to take them up on that offer sometime. We are excited for Jena and Joe's Wedding coming up in October!

And now.... a few favorites from today...

























I love this little series because I said .... "Ok, lean in and give your woman a kiss".... Jena's instinct was to lean in and give her horse a kiss, but I really meant for Joe to give Jena a kiss so we all started cracking up. I'm really glad it happened, because we got such cute photos from that moment"



And then...... when Joe did actually lean in to give Jena a kiss, the horses came together at the same time! I love this one!

A Neglected Blog :(

Dear Blog,
I am so sorry for neglecting you. I promise that I have many exciting things for you to come, but I've just been busy with all the editing and album design. As soon as I can I will add some new wedding pics, engagement pics, and of course some personal fun stuff. Talk to you soon (promise).
