York Beach, Maine has been a hot spot of engagement session activity for us over the last few weeks.
First, we had a great session with Chris and Lyndsey and then had the opportunity with Susan and Charlie just a couple weeks later. The only challenge was that these two couples are friends, so it was very important to us that we make different images from the session. We don’t like taking the same pictures over and over again, after all where’s the challenge in that.
Engagement sessions are the absolute best way to get to know our couples, that is why we include them in all of our wedding collections. Lets face it, most people hate to be photographed, and its our job to make them feel comfortable. When people turn to us towards the end of the shoot and say “wow, this was actually fun,” it underlines the importance of the session. So when their wedding day comes they are not going to be preoccupied or distracted by having a photographer present. And for us, we feel a little less like strangers and a little more like friends.
Big Thanks to Susan + Charlie!
 
This is a custom made photo box that could hold up to 600 of your favorite 4×6 prints, and it’s perfect for proofs if you want an alternate to the online gallery. It’s also great for family and friends to flip through while visiting.
Congratulations to Matt & Kerri! You remember them from their maternity session.
Words are escaping me right now, so I’m going to borrow some from Mr. William Blake.
Infant Joy
by William Blake
“I have no name;
I am but two days old.”
What shall I call thee?
“I happy am,
Joy is my name.”
Sweet joy befall thee!
Pretty joy!
Sweet joy, but two days old.
Sweet Joy I call thee:
Thou dost smile,
I sing the while;
Sweet joy befall thee!
Is it good luck or bad luck if the power goes out an hour before your ceremony? Don’t know about that, but the good luck came as the lights kicked on just as the doors opened for the bride’s procession. A collective sigh rang through the church and we were all back on track.
Harriet & Jason were married at the Assumption of the Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church in Dracut, MA, an absolutely beautiful, modern church. Ashley and I loved the way the natural light flowed in through the windows. Photographers are always seeking the light, and wedding photographers specifically have the challenge of working often in very low lit churches; but this church was wonderful to photograph.
As for Harriet & Jason, we couldn’t have asked for a better couple to photograph. We met them last Summer and had a great engagement session in Lowell, and we have some serious plans for a future Rock the Dress session involving … well you’ll just have to stay tuned for that one.
