Amanda & Ray Slideshow

Amanda & Ray

My last wedding in May was with Amanda & Ray in Washington County. It was another gorgeous day, and we got some great pictures in Mingo park between the ceremony and reception. Ray is also a photographer himself, so I'm always very honored when another photographer asks me to do photographs for them! Thank you for having me as part of your day Amanda & Ray, it was great!

Another gorgeous couple:
















Ohh lala, sun flare!




















Playing with some textures:




They did a great 1st dance!!!


Spinning the camera:

Breanne & Matt

I spent May 24th with Breanne and Matt. What happens when you mix one big Italian family with one big Jewish family? A FUN FUN DAY!!! Everything took place at the wonderful Grand Hall at the Priory, which is one of my favorites venues in the city. The day was simply amazing!

I caught this shot of Bre in the mirror, love the roses:


How do I end up with such gorgeous couples?


And this was the CUTEST ring bearer ever! He hammed it up for me all day long!


Guys before the ceremony:


The details, ceremony and reception were both in the main room of the Grand Hall:














Oh yes, that is my color:


Bre, you are just beautiful!




I didn't even have to pose her, I find it hard to believe she has no model training:


Love these:






Chair dance - FUN!


Bre's mom set up this umbrella dance, where all the guest threw streamers at them, also FUN!!!!


End of night shots:




Congratulations Breanne & Matt! What an amazing day!!! Enjoy your honeymoon!!!

Ashley & Matt

I spent May 23rd documenting Ashley & Matt's wedding. I had a gorgeous couple, gorgeous weather, and gorgeous locations, need I say more. Some faves below:

Ashley's dress, simple and stunning:


3 reasons why I love being a candid photographer:






Grabbed a quick shot of the guys before the ceremony:


Any finally the beautiful couple:


You know I am always looking for unique lighting, from this one angle in the church you could see the back windows reflecting off the alter wall:


I love when the church allows me to get frontal angles:




Seriously, they are perfect:




Flowers, flowers, flowers!!!






I think this should be a postcard:


All of the portraits were taken at Simmons Farm. Every year my husband and I take our children strawberry picking there, and last year I thought "wow, wouldn't this be an awesome location for wedding portraits!" And it just so happened the farm was right in between Ashley and Matt's ceremony and reception, so they obliged my desire to shoot there. I thank the owners of Simmons for so generously letting us use their property. (and if you're in the mood for home-grown strawberries, this is the week for them!!)

Matt was on a dipping roll!




Congrats Matt and Ashley!!!!
