Tom & Katie’s Engagement Session

Sunday Tom, Katie & I traveled out to Washington’s Crossing Historic Park along the Delaware River to do their engagement session. I haven’t been to Washington’s Crossing for quite a few years now and last time I was there it was for a very long run up the canal path, through the botanical nature preserve and to the top of the hill/mountain (not really sure what it is called) where Bowman’s Hill Tower sits and back. Now that I was not delirious from running I was able to appreciate how beautiful an area Washington’s Crossing is. All of the original houses that George Washington and his men built when they crossed the Delaware back in 1776 still stand undisturbed. Thankfully though the sound of Cannon’s firing has been replaced with the sound of cars passing over the metal bridge to NJ and kids laughing as they kick on their brightly colored tubes down the river to stay cool. I would hate to have to dodge cannon balls to take engagement photos! For more information on Washington’s Crossing Historic Park go HERE. Scroll below for Tom & Katie’s engagement photos.

And finally…I’m not really sure what was so funny but they were cracking up!!

Anthony & Jeanette’s Engagement Session

This past Saturday Anthony, Jeanette and I went and did a walk through of the beautiful Bear Creek Mountain Resort (formerly Doe Mountain) where they will be getting married in September. They have an amazing new banquet room with views out across the ski slopes which are obviously a bit lacking in the snow department right now. After our tour of the new banquet area we were off to check out the grounds and do some engagement photos which can be found below. Be sure to check back in a few months for pictures from their wedding day. If you magically see snow falling in September I didn’t touch the snow maker…I swear…it was that kid over there!!

Happy 4th of July!!!

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good 4th of July! With summer under way and one wedding already done for the year I have some down time before the true madness of wedding season is underway. Using my down time wisely I have been working on getting a new logo which is finally done with a big thanks to my friend Kate!

With that out of the way I can finally get to work on a variety of other projects that will be in the works in the next few months. Keep an eye out for my new proofing site coming soon.

Also here is a list of items available that you may not know about:

-Custom guest signature books – Made using your engagement photos these books have lots of blank area’s for guests to sign and leave messages for you on your big day. These are a very personal and creative alternative to your traditional guest book that you won’t want to just stuff in a box after the day is over.

-Custom Save the Date & Thank You Cards – These are designed using your engagement or wedding day photos. If you are interested in these please let me know ahead of time so we can discuss some of the fun and unique ways you can either let people know you are getting married or tell them thanks for coming on your special day!

Gift Registry & Gift Certificates – You create a gift registry for toasters and bath towels so why not for photography. It’s easy as can be, all you have to do is provide me with a list of items you would like guests to purchase for you and then give them my contact info just as you would the link to your other bridal registries. You can register for album upgrades such as more pages or a larger book, what about a nice canvas for your living room wall, extra hours of coverage or a Trash the Dress session. Non-specific Gift Certificates can also be purchased in any denomination.

Family Portrait Sessions & “Watch Me Grow” Baby Sessions – Besides weddings I am also available for family portrait sessions in a natural outdoor setting of your choice. “Watch Me Grow” baby sessions consist of 6 photo shoots starting about 1-2 weeks after birth and continue at 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months. The first few shoots usually take place in the comfort of your home and can later be done outside at the local playground or park as your child grows and becomes more mobile. Packages include proofs after each session and an 8″ x 8″ album at the end showing your child’s growth from birth to 2 years. These make great gifts for expecting parents.

If you have any suggestions or comments (good or bad) that you would like to share with me please go to my website and send me a message through the contact form. The feedback is always appreciated.

Have a happy, safe and dry (if possible) 4th of July!! I am excited to see many of you soon for your upcoming engagement sessions and weddings!!
