When you get new lenses, the first thing you do is find a willing victim to test them on, right? The second day of spring, Ashley and I headed for Beavertail State Park in Jamestown. I wasn’t sure if we would still be shooting that day, seeing as it snowed in the morning, but the weather cleared up and we headed out for our destination. The snow actually created a beautiful dusting over the rocks on the coastline, so though it was cold, it made for some magical atmosphere!
Thanks for being my model Ashley!

Back in February, on an extremely cold COLD day (-5 degrees Fahrenheit to be exact) I did a winter bridal shoot with 2 brave souls. April Eisemann was our beautiful model and her sister, Alex Eisemann, is a talented hair stylist in the area who did the hair for the shoot. Two gorgeous people, inside and out, and I’m so happy we were able to work together, even if the weather conditions were less than ideal. Lots of laughing occurred, especially when April got stuck in a pile of snow and Alex had to go rescue her. Hopefully I’ll have more opportunities to work with these fabulous ladies!

I’m in the process of rebranding my business, which means I’m trying some new things in terms of packaging my weddings. I love the idea of giving my couple’s something special. Almost like a “thank you for choosing me to photograph such an important day in your lives” type of deal. For this wedding I used a wooden box lined with soft moss, since moss was used throughout the decor. I also included some prints from their day, a custom wooden usb with an image from their wedding on it (eventually these will be engraved with my logo), two chocolates (because love is oh so sweet!), and finally a small glass vial that can be used to hold a number of things (petals from her bouquet, soil from where you got married, etc.)
I’ll be tweaking things a bit, but I’m loving making these special little packages for my couples!
