I met with Gina & Dave about a year before their wedding and was thrilled when they asked me to capture the day’s event for them. As luck and Mother Nature (flooding in Boston where they live) would have it we never had the opportunity to do an engagement session or even spend a little time together before the wedding (which I insist on because it really does pay off on the day of). However we were able to keep in touch through email and facebook and when the time arrived everything fell right into place. It’s so important for me to connect with my clients; to do something this personal for someone it’s a necessity.

When the big day finally arrived it looked as though Mother Nature was going to throw us a curve ball (again) but this time luck was on our side, the skies cleared just before the ceremony & we had a beautiful afternoon! Chris Steubing and his staff at Senator’s Mansion in Churchville did an awesome job! This place is beautiful and I really hope that I get the opportunity to shoot there again some time (he has an AMAZING camera room). A HUGE shout out to my very good friend for all of her help; Shavonne Joliee!!

At least Gina’s mom thought that I was funny.

Genevieve did a great job helping the ladies look their best AND she did it with a cast on her leg!

My friend John & I get the opportunity to shoot with each other occasionally over the course of the summer but with each of us getting busier with each passing season those opportunities are getting fewer and farther between, but I always enjoy it when we do!

This is how I found the guys, just a few hours before the wedding!

This may have had something to do with the situation above.

Back in July I had the distinct pleasure of shooting a wedding in Rochester with my super awesome friend Tammy Swales. We work so well together because we bring the heat and the sexy!

Here are some of my favorite images from the day…
