Kristin + Dave

It's not often that you have the privilege of photographing one of your childhood friend's wedding. This past August, I had the chance to do just that for Kristin and Dave.  I have known Kristin since we were about 8 years old and played together on our first soccer team together.  She had rockin' 80's bangs, and I basically looked like a boy.  I like to think we've come a long way!  Kristin and I have remained close friends ever since.

Kristin is one of the kindest, most giving, and hardest working people I know, and Dave truly is her perfect match. Thus far, I have failed to mention that Kristin is not only a great friend, but an excellent photographer as well. (Check out http://www.kristingladney.com/ and her latest project called "Portrait of a Creative"!)  Many people might shy away from photographing another photographers wedding, but Kristin and Dave made me feel more than comfortable and confident in taking on the task.

It honestly was a pleasure to return to my home state of Rhode Island to capture this beautiful wedding at the Portsmouth Glen, between to of the most fabulous people I know.  It was a wonderful gathering of family, and old friends...and of course...lobster! Congrats Kristin and Dave! I only wish we lived closer!

 

around and about...

 Always meaning to post more, but here are some shots from some of my film cameras around and about... here and there...

Andrea Jahde

I always mean to post more out takes, and photos that don't make the final cut. I hate to think that some of these types of photos will never see the light of day, and sometimes, they are some of my favorites! In early December I photographed Andrea Jahde for Skirt Magazine in her super chic Broad Street studio.  Really, it is a dream space with huge windows and beautiful natural light. I actually met Andy at a shared favorite spot, Bin 152, a few weeks prior, so I was really excited that she was going to be featured in the "Meet" section in the January issue.  Andrea studied shoe design at Kansas State and surely going to be a force to be reckoned with in the future-keep an eye out for her down the road!
