Andie was a perfect model for her photo shoots, despite the fact that she my have eaten too many biscuits (a girl’s got to watch her figure). She ran around, laid down, played with her mom, Kelley, and in general had a great time and so did I! And we managed to get it all in before that nasty wind and rain rolled in.  Andie, daaahrling, you look fabulous. Click  here to view the web gallery of Andie.

And remember – you have one more week to take advantage of the $50 off pet, family and children photography. Must be booked by Oct. 31.

For everyone who has been asking me – my husband, Bryan, passed the Bar. We found out the great news this morning after refreshing the site about 100 times. I’ve never wanted to puke and cry at the same time. Congrats babe!

One of my best friends, Heather, gave birth to a baby boy, Khalil on Sept. 24. I was in town this weekend for a wedding, so had to stop by and see the munchkin. We took some photos for his birth announcement. He was so alert and awake, except at the end when he had enough of everyone and drifted off. Such a cute lil’ guy. Congrats to Heather, Darwin and Matias! Can’t wait til December to take some more of Khalil.

This wedding was full of smiles and more smiles. Nancy and Mike just seemed so ready to be married. Mike was giddy and nervous, clenching and unclenching his fists, as Nancy walked down the aisle. But as soon as she arrived and they held hands, all seemed to be okay.  Their ceremony was at Christie’s of Genesee at sunset, which was beautiful, but can make picture taking a little difficult. Thankfully the sun hung in the sky as long as possible to allow us to get some great portraits of the two. They were naturals. Congrats to you both, Nancy and Mike!

When asked to shoot Jon and Allie’s wedding – I was totally humbled. Jon is my husband Bryan’s best friend since third grade, and Bryan was to be his best man in his wedding. It’s a lot of pressure to shoot weddings, let alone friends’ weddings. There’s just added stress to do a great job. Well, Jon and Allie made it extremely easy for me – their wedding was dripping in emotion, beauty, love, friends, family and God. Their wedding ceremony was held in a sparsely beautiful church, Stanwich Congregational Church, where Jon’s dad married them (incidentally, his dad was a part of our ceremony too!). Jon’s sisters sang the processional and there wasn’t a dry eye to be found. The reception was at Allie’s parents backyard, overlooking a sound, with a live band that got people sweating from the start.

Jon and Allie are such wonderful and beautiful people with huge hearts and I’m so excited that I got to capture the start of their long life together. Congrats you two!

Huge thanks to my second shooter, Kristy Rowe of Moodeous Photography!!! You rocked it.
