Evelyn and Chris: Engaged! | New Jersey Engagement Photographer

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 03:06:55 +0000

The sweetest couple ever. That’s the best way I can describe Evelyn and Chris. I don’t know if they ever stop smiling at each other. They are absolutely smitten and I loved this session. It was completely overcast and drizzinling on and off. Of course, that can make for some amazing light and gorgeous shots. So, I really didn’t mind. We started at Shark River Park where Chris proposed to Evelyn, then headed over to a beach nearby. I loved their proposal story, so I decided to share it in Evelyn’s words:

“Chris took me and his parents dog (Autumn) for a picnic in the park. We walked the park and then found a spot to sit and eat lunch. We were taking pictures of the dog. Then Chris said he wanted to take a picture of us, so he put the camera on timer to take it. To my surprise he actually put it on video got on one knee and asked me to marry him. So I was very shocked and happy:) and he got it all on video.”

Good job Chris! So excited for your wedding later this year!

Fred and Danielle got engaged in Olde City after a carriage ride. So, we returned to the scene and even hoped on a carriage ride (a first for me). It was unusually warm on this spring day, making it a perfect day for an e-sesh.

Meet Alexandra and Matt… And Fonzi! I drove up to Hoboken where Alex and Matt live with their adorable dog Fonzi. It was my first time visiting the town and I loved it! The views of Manhattan were amazing! They’ll be getting married this April in Philly and I’m SUPER excited for their wedding.

Engaged! Krystin & Chris | South Jersey Wedding Photographer

Meet Krystin and Chris! These high school sweethearts are getting married in a few short weeks. They’ve been very busy this year traveling the country, since Chris is a minor league baseball player. So, we had to wait till the season was over to do this session. We met up last month at a park in South Jersey. Here a few pictures from the session. Enjoy!

I can’t mention which park we were at, because they busted the fence! But we had a good laugh over it!

I love her ring! Gorgeous, simple, and unique!!

Meet Matt & Shannon | NJ Wedding Photographer

Matt and Shannon are a pretty cool couple, although I’m biased. Shannon is a good friend of mine from college. When Shannon first approached me about being their wedding photographer, I thought she was joking around and I just brushed it off. A few weeks later, she made it clear that she was serious.

I have to admit- I was a little unsure at first because I knew I’d be giving up my chance to dance all night long… and for me, its really hard to restrain from dancing to Sugarhill Gang’s Apache- Jump on it. Some would think I’d be giving up my invite to a big celebration and it would be all work. But Shannon didn’t see it that way. She saw it as a great way to include me as an important part of her day. After all, your photographer is one person you spend most of that day with!

Although I felt so honored (and flattered), I was still a little unsure. I thought about her words and her love of pictures (seriously… her dorm room had a ton of amazing b&w photos). Of course- wedding pictures are important to many brides, but this is especially true for her. Photography has a special place in her heart and her wedding pictures would be one of the biggest aspects of their wedding. I realized it was absolutely the right thing to do.

When we sat down to discuss everything, she was very excited. She knew exactly what she wanted for their e-session: the beach and a sunset. Turns out this was something she’d always wanted. So the pressure was on! Fortunately, everything worked out perfectly and it made for a fun, adventurous session.

Shan & Matt- I am so grateful to be a part of your wedding day. I am very happy for you! I can’t wait for your November wedding! Oh and per our verbal agreement… I will take a dancing break or two!
