Karli + Andy – Hanover, NH Engagement Session Photos

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

This past weekend Erik and I took the incredibly scenic drive up to Hanover, NH to meet up with Karli and Andy. It was cloudy for sure, and we were hoping the weather would hold out for us. Sure enough, as soon as we pulled up to the Dartmouth campus the rain began! Karli and Andy jumped in our car and we drove to Balch Hill to the spot where Andy proposed. We got out of the car and the rain stopped – divine intervention at it’s best ; )

Karli and Andy are one of those couples that just being around them makes you smile. The bond between them is powerful – you can feel it from miles away. The subtle looks, the smiles and giggles, and the constant hugging and physical closeness…I wouldn’t want to try to keep these two apart!

At the top of Balch Hill. We love cloudy days ; )

Vicki + Erik in NYC!

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

As photographers Erik and I have very few images of ourselves – especially together. The last photos we have together is from our Wedding Day. You may remember a little while back the session we did with Robert & Kathleen Photographers down in West Palm Beach, FL. Well it was our turn! For those of you who really know us also know that Erik and I don’t like being on the other side of the camera that much. It was an awesome experience though – Rob and Kathleen are great friends of ours, and there is no one else we would rather have taking our pictures ; ) Here is a sneak peek from our session in NYC. Be sure to check out their blog to see the rest!


Thanks again Rob & Kathleen! We are so happy with the images, and we had such a great time with you both!!

Meaghan + Karthik – Shelton, CT Engagement Session photos

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

When we met with Karthik for the first time a few months back and he explained how they got engaged, our mouths dropped. It is, by far, the coolest proposal story we have ever heard. I won’t do it justice by repeating it in full here, but let’s just say it was a very well prepared and executed day-long scavenger hunt. Karthik sent Meaghan from one place to the next with elaborate clues, concluding with his proposal. And of course, Meaghan said yes! They drove down from Boston to meet us at one of our favorite location in Shelton, CT. The rain stopped just as we started to shoot!

Love the perspective in this one.
