“i love lucy” the elephant | jill+brian

lucy is a big elephant that rests just a few steps away from the beaches of margate, nj. it’s a famous landmark for us here in south jersey. we really do love lucy but on this day i think we loved the awesomeness of jill+brian even more. these two came to their beach engagement session prepared for a good time. lauren and i had a blast hanging with them for the afternoon and photographing all their goofiness. their feelings for each other are infectious and we can’t wait to see them again on their wedding day to celebrate.

sometimes i have to get a little close for comfort to get the photograph i want. luckily our clients are the best and everyone plays along. (:

lucky in love | samara+dani

i figured if samara+dani can survive a bachelor party in las vegas and a wedding ceremony just outside of atlantic city, that pretty much guarantees that they are “lucky in love”. they tied the knot and celebrated with their friends&family at the clarion hotel, a few minutes from the atlantic city casinos. the day kicked off with the girls in their suite getting ready. i’ve never been in a room with such a handful of confident women, you should of heard some of the stuff that was coming out of their mouths. kinda felt like i was hangin’ with my buddies, no topic was off limits. i heard rumors that girls could be like that, but now it is confirmed for sure. (:

as you can imagine the rest of the day rocked as well. look how gorgeous samara looked, she’s just beaming with happy glow. introducing the lucky newlyweds | samara+dani - enjoy.

the moment it clicks

remember jamie+tony’s “rock the dress” session that we recently photographed at the gorgeous grounds for sculpture in hamilton, nj. well, what i forgot to mention in that post was that while we were setting up a new shot for them i caught a glimpse out of the corner of my eye of a happy couple up on the hill behind us. my first thought was “oh cool, look how awesome the light is hitting those two over there – that should be our next location we go for some more photos.” i picked up my camera, aimed it at the cute couple to get an exposure reading of the scene and that’s when it happened. at the exact second i shot my first frame this guy began his engagement proposal to his girlfriend. it was really one of those rare moments in life that you can’t believe just happened in front of you. i made sure to snag the glowing bride-to-be’s email address so she can relive that moment again through these images. i hope they enjoy them as much as i did capturing them. (:

simply perfect | kristen+ryan

i have to admit, it’s always a little nerve racking when we show up to a wedding prior to ever meeting the couple. kristen+ryan live out of state and we did not get the chance to meet in-person like we normally do before the wedding day. although, after meeting them for the first time we really had nothing to be concerned about. they couldn’t have been more easy going and a pleasure to talk to. their day started off at a gorgeous mansion overlooking the beach in brigantine nj that they rented for the week, the same town where kristen grew up. the outdoor wedding ceremony was held at the beautiful rams head inn, galloway nj. lauren and i had the best time hanging with the happy couple and their awesome friends & family the entire day. (: enjoy.
