Parlour Magazine Summer shoot.....

This shoot was magical for me on a bunch of different levels because A: Penny was away so I had to shoot it alone ( terrifying when I found out I had an entourage of 10 people relying on my expertise) and I rocked it. Also B: because everyone involved was amazing, the clothes were amazing and the light by far was the MOST amazing. Also, a storm almost cut short our shoot but we waited it out and it was worth it. Here are the shots!

Renee and Nik

Here are some pics from our engagement shoot with Renee and Nik. Aspen and I (along with my Mother) will be heading to Jamaica in February to shoot their wedding, just ask us how excited we are..........very excited.

Aspen has a thing with doors. She always wants to take photos of them or in front of them. I don't really understand it but since she's amazing and clever I indulge her. While chatting between ourselves trying to decide what to do with said door we looked over to see that Nik had wedged himself in the doorframe. Problem solved! 

While editing, I came across this photo that Aspen had taken. I liked it so much I sent her a message that said "Sometimes you take a photo and it makes me remember why I fell in love with you (professionally)". Yes. I like it that much. 

Rachelle and Mike

Rachelle and Mike had an intimate and beautiful wedding on a warm, sunny day in October. The vintage details, sunny weather and Rachelle and Mike's very open and sweet expressions made this day such a pleasure for us. Did I mention the reception was at the Red Ox Inn? I feel like we would have worked simply for the meal (note the chocolate cake photo at the bottom). Loved it all and love their photos even more!

Boys don't like hairspray

This shot was taken when the door opened and the girls saw Rachelle for the first time. I adore how excited and happy they all look.

 Every time I look at these photos I think "Awwww. She LOVES him!" which sounds a bit corny but I like it anyway.

Aspen and I sometimes have competitions to see who can take the most creative ring shot. Usually Aspen wins because she is an artist and (I think) sees the world very differently from the rest of us. Lately though I've been holding my own, the photo on the left is mine and Aspen's is on the right. We're not sure who won but we like them both!

Mike, normally quiet and reserved, led his new wife to the dance floor and proceeded to sing to her while they danced. This was one of my favorite moments.

Previously mentioned chocolate cake. It was amazing.
