Another awesome communicant with a whole lot of personality and a beautiful party. I loved working with Maryn and family (can you believe she and her sister are only 8 and 10?! So self assured, mature and tall!) and capturing some of their special day. Although Maryn was done with the pictures pretty quickly (even though we weren’t actually done!) she was so spunky and fun! And the glitter sneakers with the sweats? Perfect!
Even arguing with all the Rangers (hockey) fans at the party couldn’t put a damper on the day. Luke looked like a model on the stairs by the church but couldn’t get into his bathing suit and into the pool fast enough as soon as he got home. It’s a good a way as any to celebrate your first communion with family and friends! Congratulations to Luke and family! Another family I’ve been photographing since Luke was a newborn. Crazy how time flies!
Everly’s communion was my second time photographing a communion for this gorgeous family. Her poor sister got the hottest day ever but we had some nice cloud cover and not so hot temps this go round. Everly’s favorite part of her dress was the bows so I had to make sure they showed up in a few pictures. I’m hoping this family calls me for some pictures in their restored 1970s tiffany blue ford bronco cause you know how much I’d love that!
I was so excited to photograph this gorgeous couple’s proposal/engagement! Molly’s mom contacted me and put me in touch with Cody. We worked out the details of the surprise (complete with map). I even parked on a street a few blocks away since my car is very identifyable and I didn’t want to ruin the surprise! Oddly enough, my EXACT car was parked down the block from the beach entrance- what are the odds??-but at least it wasn’t mine! I hid behind a bunch of volleyball players until Cody was down at the water with Molly and got on bended knee. Of course she said YES! A bunch of family met them down on the beach to celebrate and then there was a big (surprise. To Molly.) engagement party back at their home. It all went off without a hitch. I am so happy for them and know they’ll be so happy together!
There were about a zillion (give or take) kids at this preprom party, hosted by my friends Carolyn & Jim. I have to say the kids were all super polite, well mannered and kind. They also looked spectacular! A lot of the kids have been my clients & friends for years, so it was great catching up and seeing them all dressed up. And the backyard was done to the 9s! (if you know the Biv’s, this will not come as a surprise to you at all!). Great work by Daniel on the balloons and decor as always- he’s an artist! I hope they all had a great time at the prom and can’t wait to watch them all flourish in their next adventures!
