CT Country Wedding: Paula and Randy

As I've told Paula already several times, I am so SMITTEN with these two! They are an absolutely adorable couple who just radiate happiness. Love them, love their guests, love their music, love Hall's Pond that they live on and got married next to--just love all around. And apparently I'm not the only one who thought they deserved a little shout out for being such a model of romance. I shot alongside Tina Fineberg of the NY Times, as they were a featured couple in the Vows column last Friday! Read their story HERE. It's a good one :)

Congratulations, Paula and Randy! Click HERE to view the full slideshow.

51 years

Meet Al and Joyce--they are the proud parents of a bride whose wedding I photographed two weeks ago. Joyce asked me to take a portrait of the two of them. After snapping the first shot, I asked, "how long have the two of you been married?"

"51 years!"

"Wow," I said, "can you tell me what the secret is?"

A huge smile spread over Joyce's face, and she answered, "Well, what he always says is.....'lack of communication'!!!"

And I see from her laughter what another one of the secrets is :)

Engaged: Lisa and JT

Lisa and Jonathan met at a coffee shop, where Lisa's bulldog "stole" Jonathan's coffee :)

We had a great time at the South Street Seaport and around Wall St. on an absolutely perfect NY summer evening. Congratulations, you two!

San Fran, Sierra Nevadas, and up the coast

If you've never been out the the serenely beautiful Pacific Northwest, start planning your trip now. It's been such a busy summer of work that I've finally gotten around to putting together the images from a trip out in June. Here are a few of my favorites.
