Headshots: Ruthie, Alex & Lee

They’ve been friends since high school, have gone off to University together, and are in New York right now auditioning for theatre schools. I just LOVE it when people know exactly what they want and they go after it. I think it’s an incredibly admirable thing and these guys have all the potential to make it all happen. These guys are SO nice, SO talented, and just SO MUCH FUN. We got together two weeks ago to do some headshots of them to leave behind with their resumes to the theatre schools. I was excited to be a part of their process, and I’m glad that I have documented proof that I knew them before they made it big =)

Kris & Kelita [are getting married!]

It was COLD. But they came anyway. The snow was DEEP. But they hiked up hill anyway. The ground was FROZEN. But they sat their butts on it anyway. Yup, I like these two. Lots.

Besides being total troopers, there’s lots of things that I have already found to like about Kris & Kelita. For instance, how relaxed they are and how they make you feel comfortable by just being around them. They are quick to smile and laugh, even at my stupid comments. How cute they look together in pictures, which makes my job so easy. That they are taking Dave & I to the Dominican Republic with them in April for a week so I can photograph their wedding. Sitting here on this freezing January day, I’m thinking they might just be my two new favourite people =)

Kris & Kelita, it was a lot of fun braving the cold, windy day with you! Enjoy your preview!

Craig & Melissa [are getting married!]

AAAAAAANNND I’m back.

I had a great time with these two…. both times! See, we set out on a gorgeous afternoon just before Christmas to do some engagement photos out in the lightly falling snow. Sure, it’s all lovely and magical until the snow turns to freezing rain and your client’s hair literally turns into a block of ice and your eyelashes clump together.

For attempt #2 a week or so later, we decided to take it inside to the historic Connell House in Woodstock. The above freezing temperatures and lack of precipitation made for a much more relaxing experience. Not that we’re super picky… but you know how it is.

Craig & Melissa, although so different from each other, are a perfect fit as far as I can see. It was comical the whole way through and I’m looking forward to their wedding in September!
