Engagement Shoot- New Haven, CT

Last Friday, Kaylin & Raul and I spent the bitterly cold, windy afternoon down on the beach in New Haven, at Light House Park. I for one had a blast (and I think they had a pretty good time too!) I hadn't met Raul yet and he was absolutely hysterical, which lead for some laughs and glares from Kaylin! Despite the cold they were such troopers dealing with the winter conditions for the shoot... here are some of my favorites, and you can find all my favorites in this slide show.

I LOVE this whole scene the sky, the grass their moment... Love it :)
Raul was full of "tricks" that kept us all laughing!

They are so cute together, full of little moments

And... the dip

The sun was just starting to set, love this causal moment with a little lens flair from the sun.

KK + RV = Love

See what I mean, they were just full of great moments, and Raul has a way of making Kaylin smile in the most natural way, they were awesome!

And this photo pretty much sums up our afternoon

Kaylin & Raul- I had such a great time photographing you two, you make such an awesome couple full of fun and great smiles. I know you will be living at a distance for some time and hope you have these photos to remind you how happy you make one another and come June you'll be married! Looking forward to your wedding! Enjoy!

Amanda & Peter - Engagement Shoot

One foggy weekend morning, I took a little drive down to Milford to photograph this fun and super sweet couple. Their home is right on the beach and despite the heavy fog, it was the perfect place for their session. They will tie the knot in November down in Westport at the beautiful Inn at Longshore. Here are some of my top pics...

I love this, they were chasing the birds but I love this filter, it looks so old fashion to me!

Amanda & Pete- I've had a great time getting to know you and photographing your session. Although your wedding is a ways away, I am looking forward to capturing your special day with your friends and family.

M&M's Engagment Photos

A week ago, Megan and Mike and I went to Kent Falls in Kent, CT to shoot their engagement photos. Although we expected the foliage to be more at it's peak, we still found some beautiful places to take pictures! They are so natural in front of the camera and I had a blast with them... and their pup :) Take a look at some favorites:

Great foliage
Showing off that beautiful ring!

A little hiking through the picture perfect woods

Love this one of them :) (sorry Mike she has great hair!)

The falls were just stunning, of course we had to dodge all the people but it was worth it!

The bridge was awesome for lots of photo ops

Another great shot of them.

I love this, the lighting was awesome and I just love the moment :)

I don't know why this is a favorite but I really like it, they both just looked off naturally on their own, and I just dig the way it looks :)

Isn't 'B' beautiful! She was such a good pup during the shoot too.

Meghan and Mike, I had a great time with you and thank you for being such troopers shooting w/ a large me :) Even though your wedding is a ways away, this shoot made me super excited for it!

S & S Engagement- Harkness Park

What a perfect day I had to photograph S & S engagement photos. We went down to one of my most favorite places, Harkness Park in Waterford for the shoot. It's my favorite because everything about it is just so beautiful. You have park, beach, mansion, flowers, you name it. S & S had never been but were thankful after arriving! Here are some favorites:

It just doesn't even look like CT

Hanging on the rocks
Just a great couple

Having a little moment

THIS is one of my all time favorites, I just love the moment they are sharing and the genuine smiles and laughter, I LOVE it!

So beautiful!

S is such a beautiful girl and perfect in front of the lens! I could have shot her all day, with her great outfits, shoes, and accessories!

I love this one too, they are such models!

aww

S & S- The big day is coming! Can't believe it's less than a month away! Can't WAIT to see you in the gown I can only imagine what it's like! You have been wonderful to work with so far and can't wait to finish it off at the wedding!
