Danielle & John: Sneak Peek

Last weekend was the beautiful wedding of Danielle and John. Even though the weather was overcast…the rain held out and I don’t think they could have had a better day if the sun had been shining.

I just love how happy they look in this photo and I wanted to share it even though the rest of the photos aren’t ready. How can I not love shooting a wedding with such beautiful and kind people as my clients? Danielle and John, you guys are simply the best! :-)

Baby James

A couple of weeks ago I got to photograph sweet little baby James. Thankfully James was a very chill newborn and slept pretty much the whole time…which is Perfect! Here are my favorites from our short little session. :-)

I don’t usually use textures on baby photos for some reason. But I felt like I wanted to try it with this one.

I love James’ dad’s big hand’s with his little hands.

I love this last one. :-) And I have to thank James’ dad for being willing to hop into a few photos. He was more of a reluctant model than little James. Thank you!

Ah…tomorrow I will be photographing Danielle and John’s awesome wedding (just got back from the rehearsal and the venue is so cute!) so more goodness to come.

Clarity: Music

_MG_35241

Last Monday I was lucky enough to get to spend the afternoon with the band members of Clarity shooting a bit around Philadelphia. They were about to head down to Nashville to record an EP with a record label down there, so we had to schedule the session at the last minute to make sure it was done in time. Thankfully, although it was cloudy the weather held out and we had a couple of hours of shooting time. And even though I haven’t shot too many band photos in the past, I really like the different locations and ideas it lets you play around with. It was definitely a different experience from the usual weddings, babies and engagement sessions. :-)

Unfortunately, two members of the band were running a bit late, so we started off with some individuals.

Pat – kind of James Dean feel. Don’t you think?

After those photos were out of the way, we checked out a few locations in the city before it got too dark.

Here are just a few more I took before the whole band arrived that I kind of liked. Just for fun. :-)

Emily & Bill: Wedding

_MG_5773
Check out those eyes! WOW!

Bill and Emily were married in December and had a beautiful Christmas time wedding.

I have known Bill and Emily for quite a few years now through my friend Lauren and they are one of the most awesome couples that I know. [Actually, Lauren, Bill and I once performed a parody of the Crosy, Still, Nash and Young song “Our House” at a 50th Birthday party. Eh hm…don’t ask. :-)] So I was absolutely thrilled when they asked Lauri and I to photograph their wedding! It’s always so much fun when you really know your couples, what they like and don’t like and their personalities.

I spent the morning with Bill while Lauri was with Emily. Gotta love the multi-tasking!

_MG_7055bw
Appropriately, the day really started for Bill with a soundcheck. Boy, I’m glad I was a photographer and not a singer at this wedding! Nothing more stressful than performing for a musician. :-)

I love how they’re just glowing coming back up the aisle after getting married.

The reception was an incredibly fun time.

The night ended with Bill playing and singing for all the guests. I like when things come full circle like that. :-)
_MG_6364
This is one of my favorite photos ever. This moment just cracks me up. I promise you that Bill is an extremely, extremely talented piano player/musician, but it certainly looks like Emily is in pain here. So funny.

Thank you so much Bill and Emily for making us feel so welcome at your wedding and choosing us to capture your special day. It was completely our pleasure.

My name is Katie! I love color and pretty light and happy faces and sessions that include all of those things. Photographing families like yours, capturing the essence of what makes you unique, is my passion. I want to get to know you and to tell a story that is authentically yours.
