Its pretty rad!

Laureen and Kevin

On monday I met up with Laureen and her fiance Kevin at their home to discuss some of the details of their wedding on February 14th, which is of course Valintimes day!

Before heading into their warm home to do this though, we took the chance to take a few shots of them around their home. It was so so cold. I actually brought an extra pair of sneakers and socks, and thank god, as my feet were frozen after trampling through the snow! But it was worth it, we had fun and got some cool shots. (why i did not wear snow boots is just beyond me!)

Cool packaging!

Just wanted to show everyone my new packaging of photo orders for print sets and albums. Isn’t it pretty wicked!

Snow, a motel and some models.

One of the first things that I did when I got back from Arizona was, of course sleep, but then prepare for a fashion shoot I had scheduled. IT was going to be a awesome shoot, with time in the city and then at this cool old 60’s motel in Peabody, (the kind you would drive by and not want to stay at, which I thought would be a cool backdrop to the shoot).

Of course nothing went as planned, because like so many other events ruined in the Northeast, this day was to be a snow day, and snow it did.
From four models I was down to two, Jasmine and Melissa, two great models who drove through the storm to the salon in Southie at the Moxie Star Salon.

Kristine and Diane did a great job and we were off to shoot.
We were supposed to shoot over the city, but it was really cold and snowy, so I decided to cut a lot of the city stuff short and go straight to the motel.

So here are some shot! Enough of me ranting on, lol.

Phoenix 2009

I spent the last week in Carefree, Arizona, just a few files north of Phoenix, where I attended DWF 2009. The DWF is a collection of wedding photographers from around the world, and we spent the week sharing ideas and techniques, as well as partying and enjoying a winter vacations.

It was about 70 degrees out every day! I was in heaven.

Aside from attending many seminars, I took time to see a real rodeo and some cactuses. I really felt like I was on the set for “Hey Dude,” but it was cool. I DJ’d a party with a fellow photographer from Atlanta and did lots of Karaoke. All in all the trip was a great break from the 0 degree days here in Boston.

So here are some shots for you to enjoy.

From my seat in the jet.

A kick off to 2009 with Jessica and Rob!

So the new year is here and another season of weddings approaches.  What better way to start the year then at a wedding!  Jessica and Rob were married at the Saphire Estate in Sharon, Mass on Saturday January third.  It was a cold and sunny day, free from snow and rain.

This was my first Scottish wedding, and in so the first time I had men in the wedding party wearing kilts.  I thought that is was very cool, although cold for them too!

All the tables at the reception were named after locations that the Jessica and Rob have been to, which I thought was pretty cool.  

Well enough of me, here are some shots!

Jessica and her mom.

Table settings, wonderfully lit with candles.

Reception moments.

Speeches. I love this part of wedding receptions. Its the part of the wedding where you truly see how everyone cares for the new couple.

Rob and his mom. I know this shot looks a little funny, but I love it. Rob and his mother were singing during their dance and it almost brought a tear to my eye.

Rob and Jessica just taking in their wedding near the end of the night.
