Christine and Christopher

I love weddings!

I love the fact that each wedding is truly so different that when you shoot on location, you scan the environment looking for a spot for pictures.

I loved the fact that at the Tunxis Plantation CC we had access to a gorgeous oak tree with beautiful waters behind.... but what was even better (in my opinion) was the old shed we found next to the waters. Man... I love a good contrast ANYDAY. :-)

Sometimes it's better to look beyond the obvious for photos.
Sometimes you just get a feeling of what would work.

Just a few samples of their day to share... I got the pleasure to spend just a short time with them.

Oh! And while editing... for some reason these photos were screaming- "Go antique! Go antique!" So I did.

No, really, I don't have a foot fetish...


At Jill and Bob's wedding, I noticed that a bunch of ladies were on the dance floor... I just put down my camera and pressed the button. (They must have thought.. "What in the world?")

I thought it was pretty cool... it reminds me of my own friends in high school huddled around just talking.
Boys. Books. Gym class (and how everyone hated it- except for me, I loved gym!).

But you just get a sense of these girls chatting, singing.... having a good time... dancing the night away. It just brings me back.

I don't know. I just like it ;-)

And the winner is.....


Elizabeth!!

I wanted to thank my (past) clients for taking a survey for me. One-third had participated in providing me feedback on my services.

Now how did I select the winner?
The old fashion way... tearing up and folding pieces of paper and putting them in a (clean) wastebasket, swirling the paper and, yes you guessed it, placing hand in basket to draw the winner.

No kids were involved in this activity.. in that case everyone would have been a winner, and there would have been a screaming child, wanting to grab all of the papers for his very own.

Congratulations Liz... you get to select a photo session!
