Dave Matthews New York, NY

Monday, May 4th, 2009

Yesterday Erik and I were shooting an engagement session in NYC and we happened to come across Dave Matthews – I think he was filming a video. We watched him walk through this cross walk a few times, and snapped some pictures of course! I know some of our clients are fans – so enjoy ; )

Kate + Erick – Carriage Stone Farm, Northford, CT Engagement Session Photos

Friday, May 1st, 2009

A little while back a friend of mine, the super talented Robin DIni, told me that she was pregnant! Along with this exciting news came the concern that she may not be able to photograph Kate + Erick’s wedding in the fall. Robin asked me to step in for her (and the couple agreed), and I gladly obliged. I know Robin was bummed that her due date fell so close to their big day, and after meeting the couple I know why! These two are incredibly sweet, laid back, and SO in love. I am really excited for their wedding and honored I get to be a part of it – along with the amazing Julia of Salty Grapes Photography. We are going to have a blast!

This past weekend Robin, Julia and I met up with Kate and Erick at Carriage Stone Farm in Northford, CT. What a cool find by Robin!

Robin’s father drove this tractor over for our use ; )

I love spring (even though it was more like summer with the 90 degree weather!)

The sky was so blue.

I love this silhouette.

We had been told that one of the horses is a biter, although we weren’t sure which one. Therefore, Kate and Erick were slightly nervous about standing near this horse, but they did it anyway, and look pretty relaxed I think!

We think this may be the horse that bites!

These stone blocks were calling to us.

This one makes me happy.

I was really loving the texture and pattern of these blocks. And Kate and Erick are not so bad themselves ; )

My favorite of the day – I love the reflection of the clouds in the window.
