Sarah was so nervous when we started this shoot (it was quite endearing), but by the time we ended, she and Peter were like old pros. Plus – how cute are they!?! I had a lot of fun getting to know them as we strolled around Wash Park on a beautiful end-of-summer night. I love seeing couples who are so comfortable with themselves and each other. I am so excited to shoot their wedding in just a few weeks. I think it’s going to be an awesome day!

Rachel contacted me after I shot her friend’s wedding – Jon and Allie in Connecticut. It worked out that I had another New York wedding booked the weekend before Rachel and John’s. What luck! We scheduled their engagement shoot while I’m here, staying in NYC with my best friend, Mere, and her daughter and husband.
I met Rachel and John at her parent’s New York brownstone. We then went over to Washington Square Park and meandered around Greenwich Village until we reached their favorite pizzeria – John’s Pizzeria. Ah – sooo YUM! I had a blast hanging out with the two of them. They are the sweetest couple to take photos of, let alone get to know.They are loving and caring toward each other and all those around them. Plus, getting out of Colorado and shooting in NYC was a treat for me – the color and energy was really inspiring. The 100+º weather was not as inspiring though. Ugh, I’ve never been so sweaty! Anyway, hope you guys had as much fun as I did. I am really looking forward to your BIG DAY Sunday!

Can we talk about how cute Rachel’s shoes are?
And this is one of my favorite shots of the day – I can see this on a big canvas print.

Chris and Amanda have been dating for a long time, and you can tell with how comfortable they are with each other. They had no problem doing the silly things I asked them (like running at the seagulls), cuddling over and over with each other and making each other laugh. And thanks for being ok with all that sand :)
Chicago’s North Beach was such a fun place to shoot – so many options and so different from Colorado. I am so excited for their August wedding in Chicago – although I’ll be sweating my butt off – I know it’ll be a great time!

Kathleen, Chris and I wandered around Confluence Park with their cute dogs, Maggie and Scout. I am so fortunate to work with the most laid back couples. They were so patient with me, even when I asked them to do stupid stuff. Sometimes Chris would look at me like – what? – but then would oblige. And aren’t they an attractive couple? Plus, Chris avoided any “Jenner” poses :)
I am excited to shoot their wedding in a month! Hopefully it’ll be a little less windy than our engagement session.

So I’ve got the studio office almost how I want it decorated. It’s taken a lot of trips to the Goodwill, Target and random furniture stores. Here are some photos (mainly for my mom and brother since they keep asking!). I think I’ll be having a little meet-n-greet in April and then we can all head over to the Skylark since it’s just a block away. I’m so excited to share this space with clients!
