Can I just say how much I LOVE my clients! Amanda and Andrew are no exception! We had so much fun when we meet up in CT and took the train to the city together. Amanda and Andrew are college sweethearts. They totally cracked me up when we actually talked about how they met. You know there is “his side” and “her side” of the story. My side is that they are so in love and that is all that matters!
We started off our session in Grand Central Station.
We continued our session in Central Park.
My favorite of the day!
I am so excited to shoot your wedding Amanda and Andrew. I look forward to seeing you both!

When he knocked on her door; their lives changed forever. Richard had a new job nearby and was looking for a rental. The unit above Andrea’s was vacant. Dressed in black chaps & motorcycle wearing sunglasses and helmet in hand; Richard knocked on Andrea’s door to ask about the unit above. Many questions later the he asked for her hand in marriage.
We revisited so many pieces of that first encounter. Be sure to check out the slideshow after a few of my favorites.

Marissa and Mike had such a beautiful sunny day to join their lives together on. Their ceremony was absolutely beautiful along with a beautiful reception at The Woodwinds in Branford, CT. Here are some highlights from the day. Be sure to check out the slideshow at the end of the post to see their wedding day story unfold.
My favorite image of the day/ the year for that matter! When I was capturing Marissa’s entrance to the church, one of Marissa’s and Mike’s ring bearers peeked past the Holy Water Font as the bride walked up to the church.
I LOVE capturing emotion. I how her mascara is running with her tears during her first dance with her father.
Huge props to Mr. Eric Foley for lending his talent for the day as a team shooter and Amanda Nesto for assisting.

Rachel and Ryan met at a party during the college years. Not having seen each other in seven years they found each other again when Ryan walked into Rachel’s current workplace. They have been inseparable ever since.
With the crazy weather and all the rain in CT; Rachel and Ryan’s session was rescheduled a few times. We finally were able to meet up at the beautiful Gouveia Vineyards in Wallingford, CT and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day.
Rachel’s ring is stunning! I love the texture of the wood in the shot.
Yes, I love shoes!
Thanks Rachel and Ryan! I can’t wait for the wedding! Enjoy your slideshow!

You better believe I was SUPER excited to shoot this engagement session. It was so awesome to get an email from Vanessa asking if I would come out to CA to shoot her wedding. How could I say no? A trip home, 4th of July weekend, surrounded by family. I have known Vanessa well, all my life; she is my cousin.
Vanessa and Gabriel LOVE ice cream shoppes. What better way to start out an engagement session with two ice cream lovers (Make that three) than Superior Dairy Ice Cream in Downtown Hanford.
What was left of the S.O.S. Yes, what was left. That is one HUGE homemade sundae!!!
There was this really cool boutique called Rouge downtown. We noticed the lip couch and took full advantage of it. (Check out the slideshow at the end of the post to see many more shots).
Can’t wait for the wedding! See all of you guys soon!

Kaitlyn and Alan knew eachother in high school. They reunited through friends while they were in college. Kaitlyn would hang out with her girlfriends and Alan with his guy friends. They would all get together and wanting to keep friendships alive they made a pact that no one would date within their group. That didn’t happen. Kaitlyn and Alan are getting married!
I met up Kaitlyn and Alan at the Yale Campus in New Haven, CT for their engagement sessions.
Check out a few of my favorites and the slideshow at the end of the post.
