Elvar & Katie came to me thru my photografriend Gina who wasn’t able to shoot their last minute session, so I stepped in. They have been married for 10 years (it was actually their 10 year anniversary on the day of our shoot) and Katie’s original engagement ring got misplaced someplace along the way. So Elvar picked out a gorgeous new engagement ring for her and set up (with the help of his brother and sister in law) a suprise “proposal” at Sunken Meadow beach. Katie was very surprised, they had a rather large audience of strangers cheering for them on the boardwalk, and we shot a few fun pictures for their engagement/anniversary/proposal/celebration. We unfortunately had to cut it shorter than we had originally planned as their daughter was home sick and they needed to get back to her fast, but I think we got some great photos in the time we had. Congratulations and happy anniversary to the happy couple!

Chris popped the question out in Southampton on the beach and I was so happy to be there to capture it. Chris and Catherine are like a total power couple- she’s in medical school and he’s in law school, and are still so lovely, down to earth and totally in love. They were great to photograph and I wish them only the best in their very bright future together! Loved the beautiful and simple engagement ring in a gold setting- you don’t see that too often these days.
