    jacqueline & craig

    This couple came to me thru my faux niece Bitsy as Jacqueline is Bitsy’s fiance’s sister. Follow that? We only had this one day to do their session as Craig lives out of town and was only around for this date- so even though it was crazy windy and threatening rain, we went ahead and got it done. Loved Jacqueline’s request of bike riding on the boardwalk while holding hands! I’ll be photographing their wedding soon so be on the lookout for those pictures by the end of this summer. Congratulations to the happy couple!

    A&T rehearsal dinner

    After a referral from a very great client, the mother of the bride booked me for a few pictures of her daughter & almost son in law’s rehearsal dinner. I’m not able to post the extended family but here’s a few shots from the evening. There were guests in from literally around the world for the wedding so I’m sure it was a great day! Oh, and the groom’s cuff links are the bride’s fathers who has passed on so it was a beautiful tribute to him.

    catie & austin + almost christopher rowan

    Their baby will be here in just a few days! So happy I got to photograph another milestone for this awesome couple. Their maternity session was on a somewhat chilly evening at the beach, but they did great (even in minimal coverage!) and we had lovely light to go with their glowing pregnancy! So check out Catie & Austin’s maternity session and stay tuned for baby pictures like really soon! Send them all your well wishes for a healthy and easy delivery.

    chaminade preprom

    My great clients got in touch asking if i could shoot their son’s Chaminade high school pre-not-a-prom (or “aqua prom”) party. Of course I was game! The party was held at another one of the boys’ family’s home with 5 couples and their families in attendance. It was a super fun shoot (especially capturing the 5 boys goofing around) and I hope they all had a great time at their “not a prom”! And somehow managed not to be stuck out on the water for the monsoon we had later that evening!

    elvar & katie get engaged, but not really…

    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!
