When Diana called to ask us about photographing her soon-to-be-born baby, we were thrilled enough (having known her after shooting her sister’s wedding). But when she asked us to photograph a maternity session for her, that gave us even more reason to jump up and down with excitement. She’s a beautiful person inside and out, and we were genuinely thrilled to show her off. Isn’t she the most gorgeous nine months you’ve ever seen? Baby Gemma is right around the corner!

More with Gemma.

We first met Melissa & Michael at Joette & Patrick’s wedding, and we could tell even then just how much love  they have for one another, as well as for their two adorable little girls. When Melissa asked if we could take some relaxed lifestyle portraits of their beautiful family, we jumped at the opportunity to do so. In the gorgeous open setting of a wonderful horse farm, they and their girls were able to show us what a fun-loving, happy family they are. The girls looked forward even more to changing into their ballerina tutus. Too cute! We had a great time on this family outing.

We were really happy to meet up with Sora & Alexander for their engagement photos. During the month of June, there’s never any accounting for what the weather might do. But this cute couple took a chance and braved the forecast of impending thunderstorms. And what do you know!! The weather actually held up, while accommodating us with some dramatic changes between clouds and sunshine throughout their fun shoot. We’re each looking even more forward to their wedding day at the Inn at Fox Hollow.

There’s no doubt about it. Allie absolutely LOVES photography. And we absolutely love photographing with Allie & Traver. They both put a lot of thought into the look and mood they wanted for their photo session, and she asked that we come out to a beautiful horse farm that had wide-open spaces and plenty of variety in the scenery to showcase their personalities and genuine enthusiasm about their relationship. They also brought along their friendly nine-year-old German Shepherd, Ozzie, for a portion of the session. He turned out to be a big teddy bear. It was a perfect way to spend the late autumn season.

We had such a blast with this down-to-earth couple, and our own excitement about their upcoming wedding at the Pearl River Hilton is growing even more, especially after their fabulous photo shoot.
