Little Luna : Newborn

Two House Photo was down a man while Carin brewed this little angel...it was hard to wait, but now that she's here it was well worth it.  Luna is all pink and perfect, and just look at those eyes. Oh, and the hair! She's already showing her blondie brothers she's got her own style.  Happy to welcome little Luna to our community.  Looking forward to seeing her grow.   The shutters will be snapping!

Fireworks : July 3 : Burlington, VT

My husband and I took our boys to see their very first fireworks last night.   It had been the first time I had seen fireworks in quite a while as well,  so of course I lugged along my tripod.  I found myself being more drawn to the foreground, getting the people as they looked on at the display. Makes for a more emotional, interesting image I think.  Already taking notes on what worked and what didn't for next year.  #1 on my list is getting a good remote trigger...family portrait in silhouette to explosions! I think I can make it work? And after all,  it's nice to be in a picture too now and then.

Oh, and by the way,  HUGE hit with the guys.  Sam actually walked over to Jay when it was over, threw his arms around him and said "THANK YOU Dad, for bringing us to see the fireworks!"  So damn cute.

Theresa & Dan : Vermont Wedding : Part 2

I love church weddings.  The big open space.  The wood, the glass...the tradition. Church walls stand through time, witnessing the countless joys and sorrows that life bestows.  Watching a bride and groom stand in front of a congregation, it's humbling to think of all the families that have begun with declarations up on that same alter.  The sense of continuity, the building of community.  Watching Theresa stand in the same spot her mother stood across from her father years ago, making the same promises with Dan that her parents vowed to each other, with them watching on, it was truly and honor.  Starting off like this, I can only imagine how amazing their life will be.   If the party was any indication, well, it'll definitely be fun!  Thanks again Theresa & Dan.  It was a blast!     

Theresa & Dan : Vermont Wedding : Part 1

Happy to share the first part of Theresa and Dan's wedding day!  Full of classic beauty and happy anticipation.  The ladies were a joy to hang out with as they got Theresa ready to put on that gorgeous dress (one of my favorites so far this season).  Dan and his guys headed early to the church,  and when the angles weren't right, were handed the camera in the back of the limo (Cyndi is a genius)...and yay! they even got a few good ones (I won't mention how many blurry out of focus ones). The outpouring of support was tangible as people gladly took part in these two kind and sweet souls becoming family.  Thanks again Theresa & Dan, for letting us take part too.  And Congratulations!

Stay tuned for more!
