Ocean Cliff is an amazing venue and offers spectacular views of the Newport bridge…truly a beautiful New England destination.  Cat and Jeremy made quite a dashing couple.  The gorgeous flowers we put together by Philadelphia florist Chartreuse.

I had so much fun…congratulations Cat & Jeremy!!!

Enjoy!

The day was spectacular, not a cloud in sight.  Dina and Tom were so calm and excited to be getting married…it all was so natural.  When I arrived Dina was getting her beautiful long hair done, accented with flowers.  She seemed to float on air in her custom hemp gown.  I especially loved their wedding bands…they were both inscribed with in gealic ” gra anois agus go deo” which means Love now and forever.  Isn’t that beautiful?!

The ceremony was held in front of the rustic log cabin that they decorated with sunflowers and quilts.  Dina came down the isle to a Beatles’ song  played on acoustic guitar. It was such a special moment to witness…

Thank you so much Dina and Tom for allowing me to be a part of your special day.  I had such a wonderful time.  I wish you both lots of love and happiness:)

First of all, to share some background, this year has been they year of babies in my life.  Some of the closest people to me have embarked on parenting… and I am loving every minute of it. (from the sidelines of course) You see, this year my brother and sister in law had their first baby girl, so did my cousin and best friend!  I always knew I loved photographing babies, but now it has taken on a whole new meaning.  I absolutely love it!

With that said, I have decided to offer The Baby Plan to my clients.  This entitles the client to a wonderful discount and pre-scheduling perks…Such as priority session choices and 10% off all products!  The baby Plan offers client several options including Maternity- 1 year, Newborn- 1st year, and of course months 3, 6, and 9!  Please contact me if you would like more info and pricing.  These sessions are available in-studio or on location for an additional fee.

So here is a preview of my beautiful niece, Samantha’s 3 month Session.  More images to come soon!

Dina and Tom make such a sweet couple.  I especially love when they recounted the story of how Tom proposed.  He asked her on the “top of the rock” in NYC in the middle of winter.  It was freezing outside, but Dina said she barely felt the cold because she was so happy.  I just love stories like that:)

The following are some photos from their engagement session taken on the boardwalk in Asbury Park, NJ.

enjoy!  xoxo

I decided to design some Save the Date Cards using my favorite store as inspiration.  Here is the design that Sarah and Mike decided to use.

Another new product, this one from photographer favorite Design Aglow, is the new Interactive Guest Book.  It features images from your engagement session while asking your guests adorable questions.  Click play to view a sample:
