ENGAGED | maureen + steve

maureen + steve live a few footsteps from the beautiful beaches of sea isle city, nj.  so what better place to hold their engagement photography session, right?  i met the two of them in front of their house on a perfect late afternoon just a few hours before sunset.  their engagement session was casual and fun, just the way i like it.  after spending some quality time with these two i’m totally pumped to rock out their wedding day next september.  can’t wait to see you guys again soon.

enjoy.

Margate City, NJ Engagement: Jessica+Brad

one stunning, sweet, adorable girl: √  - one handsome, kind, athletic guy: –  one super dog of awesomeness:

i can’t say enough wonderful things about jess + brad.  i have known brad since high school and have had the pleasure of becoming friends with his beautiful fiance’ jess this last year or so.  we all met over in margate for a little walk around the town & beach for their engagement photo session.  these two were so fun to hang with for the afternoon (pure happy) and i am seriously considering dognapping their bulldog “chubs” when they head down to the dominican republic for there wedding next week.  congratulations guys!  i hope you have a blast in the islands, lauren and i will be thinking of you and sending happy vibes over the waters..  enjoy.

i felt like it was only fitting to snag a spider shot for a bride and groom who will be getting married over halloween…

when chubs finally made an appearance towards the end of the session i had no idea he would go “tasmanian devil” on the basketball.  it think he believes he can swallow the ball.  however, with the size of that mouth, i wouldn’t put it past him. (;

Eagle Ridge Golf Club, Lakewood NJ Wedding: Jennifer+Erik

lauren and i first met jenn + erik in a small coffee shop right off the beach in long beach island called cafe bacio.  after meeting with them for those few short hours we left feeling like we just made two new best friends and we were blown away by their awesomeness.  their wedding day couldn’t have come quick enough for us, it seemed like an eternity to finally get the chance to hang with them again.  needless to say, it was well worth the wait and their wedding day was a huge success.  the beautiful wedding ceremony was held at the saint catharine of siena church in seaside park just a fews blocks down from erik’s mom’s house overlooking the bay.  the festivities continued at the eagle ridge golf club for dinner and dancing.  the golf course was really amazing, i will have to make a mental note to tell my dad about this place. (:  thanks again jenn + erik for allowing us to photograph your wedding day & hang with your wonderful family and friends, we loved every minute of it!!  now go start having babies so we can have play dates together.. (:  enjoy.

sometimes when photographing kids it helps if you let them take a few pictures of you first acting silly – then they are more likely to cooperate with you when you want to snag a picture of them.  but be careful, because kids can get addicted to working a big professional camera and may be by your side all night asking to take pictures.  luckily for us, this beautiful flower girl was so sweet that we didn’t mind goofing off with her all day.  the below photo captures lauren’s expression after being asked to “get silly with it” by 5 year old sarah.
