So happy now its actually Spring! Even when Spring had started when we did this engagement session, it was such a COLD spring day! At least now its warm and lovely.  The day itself was very lovely and fun, just a bit chilly…but Joe and Lisa toughed it out with laughter, smiles and warm kisses.

Lisa and Joe have a great story on how they met. It’s so good its like a movie! I personally love it and think its so special. They met on The New Haven Line on the way to work. Like a movieSo cool!

So for their engagement session they wanted to have The Union Train Station in New Haven be their “theme” or “idea” which was a creative and special one. I gotta say I loved getting yelled at by security…well I should say I was mumbled at during the session. I guess I wasn’t allowed to take pictures of a happy and in love couple at the train station.  So after some mumbling from “authority” we headed over to a different and beachy place in New Haven. We went down to The Lighthouse & Park for some more photos. Despite the sun shining bright on us, it was very cold and windy! Being the awesome people they are, the weather didn’t faze them and they did a fab job infront of the camera. Here are a few of my favorite photos from that fun day.

Thanks to Lisa and Joe for the lovely “tour” of New Haven and for the helpful hints on where I should travel next for vacation. Super excited to capturing your wedding and dancing at your weddingEnjoy the rest of the spring! xoxo

It feels kinda silly to be posting a wonderful winter theme engagement session right as Spring weather finally arrives, but it still puts a big smile on my face to do so.

Back in early March I had a cold but fun time walking around The Split Rail Nursery in Milton New York with Lauren, Richie and their awesome dog Zoey! (she’s an airedale terrier and sweet as can be)

This was I think our third reschedule session due to the crazy snow we got back in February.  We wanted snow for the session, but not the blizzard size snow we ended up getting. Luckily the engagement session had a little snow on the ground to help give that winter feel.

Here are just a few of my favorite photos! I have to say I love Zoey! She is such a great dog with tons of personality and I need her to train my pup Rocky on how to be a good doggie (lets just say my dog can not be off a leash-he would just run forever!)

I’m super happy that its finally Spring and that the weather is finally getting warmer. Truth be told I’m also super happy to be doing Lauren and Richie’s wedding in December and it can’t come soon enough!! I know its going to be a lovely winter wonderland of a wedding

Thanks to Lauren and Richie for the laughs and the hot chocolate! I can’t wait to see you guys again later in the year.  In the meantime enjoy the spring and summer time and please give Zoey an extra belly rub for me
