Sabrina Marie Makeup

I had the pleasure of shooting local makeup artist Sabrina Fortier in studio this past week. She was a pleasure to work with and a talented makeup artist working throughout the Berkshires. Her website is sabrinamariemakeup.com. When I get the chance I really enjoy working in studio and being that time of year when it starts to get  cold out I’ll be  shooting more high school seniors in studio . Thanks Sabrina for stopping in and Brides if you get the chance drop by her website…..

Jim + Kelli

Congratulations to Jim and Kelli married at West Parish Church in Andover MA. followed by a rocking reception at the Andover Country club. It was a fantastic day starting at Kelli’s grandparents house and Kelli was one of the coolest brides I got to shoot this year. She had her game on right from the start though I had heard that Jim had a few problems the night before with the rehearsal…I’ll cover that a little later … The morning set we had a blast and shot some awesome photos of Kelli and the ladies up until it became game time and off to the church we went. The church was a quaint simple church where I found the groom waiting for Kelli’s arrival. Remember when I mentioned that Jim had a few problems with the rehearsal well his groomsmen where not going to let him forget that he was having a hard time reciting his vows the night before. They had a few cue cards for him……lol…….he did make it through the ceremony without a hitch. After the ceremony we where off to the Andover Country Club to take group shots in their garden setting unfortunately we ran late and out of daylight so we moved it to the front by the car port. The guys and ladies really knew how to ham it up for the camera and I wasn’t sure if I was going to have time to finish because they keep me laughing for so long. As the night moved along and we made our way through the reception I noticed the DJ going over a dance routine outside with the groomsmen. I was thinking to myself “what are they planning” well you ‘ll just have to wait to the end of the post to see but all I can say is the DJ should of had his own Vegas show he was incredible and really made the end of the night.

Shane & April

It was a pleasure to shoot April & Shane’s wedding. Though their wedding was in January and it was bitterly cold outside there was plenty of warmth and joy inside as these two where wed. I’m really looking forward to May as April is doing a bridal shoot that should be fantastic. I will be offering Bridal shoots as part of my services coming up in the end of 2009 and Happy Mothers day …….

More can be seen in the wedding stories section of the website…..
