Lauren and Dmitriy are a part of this list for a variety of reasons. First, this photo just makes me smile every time I see it. I love the strands of lights in the background.  I love the curve of Lauren’s neck.  And I love that it was a spontaneous moment. Second, they are two of the most wonderful, kind people I’ve ever met. And their marriage just seems like plain fun.

It was a toss up for me on these two as well. I love seeing such genuine joy on my clients faces.  And Lauren was probably the most joyful bride I had this year.  Plus, isn’t she gorgeous?

A big thank you to Lauren with Every Last Detail for featuring Carey and Eric’s splendid destination wedding in Maine. Lauren’s blog is bursting with lovely wedding details and inspiring real weddings, I’m thrilled to be a part of it!

I simply adore Carey. First, she’s hilarious. Second, she’s genuine. And third, she’s just plain wonderful. I was beyond excited to be able to go all the way across the country for their destination wedding in Northeast Harbor, Maine. Not only was I thrilled to be a part of their wedding day, I’d never been to that part of the east coast before! But seeing Carey and Eric get married was magical. They are really and truly meant for each other. Their humor was catching, their love was palpitate, and their enjoyment of early nineties music made for quite possibly the best reception dancing I’ve ever seen.

Thank you Carey, for inviting me to be a part of your truly amazing wedding day. Your were are a fantastic client, but an even better friend.

I adored working with Kara and Brandon on their wedding day. It didn’t take me long to realized that these two not only love each other, they were truly meant for each other. Being able to capture their love and excitement is just one of the many reasons my job is so wonderful and rewarding.

Thank you Kara for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day.

There are times that I leave a shoot and it takes every ounce of energy I have not to shout out loud or silently, but emphatically, fist pump from excitement. This was one of those sessions. Everything about it, from the love shared between Lauren and Dmitriy, to the incredibly winter sun, have me excited to share with the world.

Lauren and Dmitriy are so incredibly wonderful. They are filled with such a huge amount of love for each other and energy for life that simply being near them made me a happier person. And not only were they up for anything, they came to their shoot with incredible ideas of their own.  Those balloons?  Lauren’s idea.  Bringing their deliciously smoosh faced pup?  Also a brilliant Lauren idea.  All around, they were a blast.  And Lauren, you’re incredibly gorgeous, inside and out.

I have a feeling that their wedding will be filled so much genuine emotion that it will be nothing short of amazing.   Plus, they are working with Angela from Lulu Events.  And shes amazing herself.

There were so many incredible photos to choose from, but here are a few of my favorites.

I was lucky enough to be able to 2nd shoot a wedding with the uber talented, and super wonderful Napa Wedding Photographer, Jennifer Kloss. It amazes me when I realize that I’ve been friends with Jen for 6 years. She’s really is an amazing, wonderful person, photographer, mother, friend…. you get the idea. When she asks me to shoot with her, I jump at the chance. It’s so flattering!

And I can’t help but blog a little taste of the last wedding we shot together. Lindsey and Beau were such an amazingly happy couple and seeing their happiness has really stuck with me. I’ll leave the big post to Jen, but here are a few of my favorites.

You are GORGEOUS Lindsey.  And your dress was AH-MAZING.  Seriously.  You and Oscar do very well together.

And Beau, you’re quite a catch yourself.

They had their ceremony on the balcony at Auberge du Soleil in Napa.  And as always, it was breath taking.  Truly magical.

Ack, I’m so incredibly behind with my blogging.  I owe a big, huge, heartfelt thank you to all of my clients who have made my holiday season extra busy, and also extra fun.  I’ve enjoyed every single one of you, and I’m just sorry I can’t get all of your pretty faces on the blog at once!

Speaking of tardy sessions, I think Katie’s session was almost a month ago…

I had so much fun shooting this session. Seriously, it was a blast. Katie initially contacted me to shoot her family along with her brother and his family a few months ago. I just had a feeling that it would be fun. First of all, Katie is hilarious. Her sense of humor clearly shows through when she writes and I couldn’t wait to meet her. Let me just say, she didn’t disappoint! Secondly, we have very similar hair cuts. So, she gets extra points for being so cool and trendy. I just think there are some people you just click with. As an added bonus, I got to meet her family and their little boy W. He was a doll and pretty much the polar opposite of little S. I love watching the family dynamics at work.

Thank you both for dragging your families out to come and spend some time with me.  And I’m sorry it has taken me so long to get your session on the blog!

How hilarious are these pictures. S is a bulldog and she wasn’t going to take any little boys in her space! And while she may be trying to push W out of the frame, she does it with a smile. I still crack up thinking about it.  She’s nothing if not a ham!
