Ten Eyck Tuesdays
WARNING: Crazy, huge post! I can't help it--I had too much fun!
Last Tuesday I spent the day with an awesome group of people. Val McCormick, Claudia and I were the lucky ones to make it into Carla Ten Eyck's first session of Ten Eyck Tuesdays. What a great time we had! The lovely Robin Dini and her husband Frank were our models for the day.
Before I begin, let me say this about Ms. Carla Ten Eyck. I signed up for her workshop because I admire her work and her enthusiasm so much. I wanted to see her in action and hoped some of her magic might rub off on me. Not only is she an amazing talent, but her love for what she does is infectious and she so enjoys sharing and teaching and helping people grow.
Spending time with Carla is just good for the soul.
Our first stop was a park at high noon. Not ideal shooting conditions, but we managed to rock it. Robin and Frank are so in love and so natural in front of the camera.
How's this for a cool location? Who knew a highway overpass could be so fun to shoot in? (Carla did, that's who.)
The Frankness.
Our last stop was in a crazy tunnel near the train station. A normal person would probably just hold her breath and walk quickly through, hoping nothing would drip on her from above. (Ha, ha--private joke for those in attendance!) But, again, we rocked it!
Carla set up this cool shot using Frank's aviators.
A Couple's Self Portrait. Robin shot this photo of herself in Frank's glasses. How cute are they?!
I rest my case.

Shelby + Ryan: Part One
I am so excited to be shooting Shelby and Ryan's wedding next summer. I first met Shelby a few months ago and knew I would love photographing her. Not only is she beautiful but she was so easy to talk to and when she talked about her wedding she just lit up.
We wrote back and forth a couple of weeks ago in preparation for the engagement shoot. I sent them each a "Couples Questionnaire" that I ask my couples to fill out so that I can get to know them better as individuals and as a pair. They're always fun for me to read and always teach me something important about my couples, but this time I was just blown away.
I got Ryan's answers first and they were just amazing. He is so in love with Shelby and it came through loud and clear in all of his answers. Shelby's reply came a day later and she, too, blew me away. These two could not say enough wonderful things about each other and I could not WAIT to get them together in front of my camera!
We met a week ago in Essex for our shoot. Somebody was looking out for us b/c it rained half of my drive down and much of my ride back but the weather stayed dry for our entire session!
As always, I have too many favorites to cram in one post so be on the lookout for a Part Two later this week. For now--enjoy!

Karen and Chris: Part One
So last night was just a teaser.
I will be posting this wedding in a series as I make my way through my favorite images. Below is a sampling of mostly details. I have a hard time keeping these to a reasonable number because I was so into her details! The flowers and dress and shoes, the venue, the hair, the flower girls! So many great shots of her beautiful details!
The bridesmaids looked awesome in their chocolate brown dresses:
One bridesmaid was a new Mommy. She looked amazing and her sweet baby was just 4 weeks old! So cute!
Devon preps. It was so fun to see Devon--it's been years. We grew up on the same street and played together when we were little!
Just a cool shot of "The Scene." Lots of activity as everyone gets ready:
How 'bout these flowers? My sister and I were ooh-ing and aah-ing all day about these beauties. I must give props to Clementine Floral for their exquisite work:
And these?
Steph, a bride I shot last year, gets her glam on. Foxy Lady!
Her girls weigh in on the lip gloss. It's a group effort!
Nothing like a little bubbly to set the mood!
Karen sees herself in her dress for the first time. Perfection.
