On Tuesday, I met with a mother and her two daughters who take ballet at a local dance studio. Although I had envisioned a sunflower field, I was a little disappointed to find that their field was a little lacking. lol But they did have another field full of blooming flowers which made for a beautiful backdrop. These girls were such good sports for being in the sun on the hottest day of the year and for trying to balance on very uneven dirt! 😉 Thanks, ladies! Here’s a quick peek at the two that I like from the session:
Here is a lil’ montage of my first ballerina session. Miss K is actually an Irish Step Dancer but we went to a local park to take some photos by a lovely field of black eyed-susies. Miss K was a joy to photograph, not only is she absolutely adorable but she was the easiest lil’ girl I’ve photographed in quite some time! lol Here’s a sneak peek:

St. Domenic’s Chapel on Providence College’s campus was the setting for Alisha & Andy’s wedding on August 1, 2009. It was a beautiful, yet quaint chapel with beautiful ground for the portraits afterwards. Andy & Alisha are a sweet couple and they were so easy-going the entire day. Heck, I don’t think I saw one ounce of nervousness from either one of them! 😉
After the formals, we made a quick stop at Bradley’s Cafe in Providence where Alisha & Andy first met. Let me tell ya, we got some fun photos from there! 🙂
I wish Alisha & Andy the best as they begin their lives together as husband and wife. Here are a few of my favorites from their gorgeous day:
And I had to throw this on here. At the reception, they set up a HUGE variety of candy and goodies for all their guests. It was so festive and fun!
And here are a few photos that my assistant took that I loved:
*Loved this expression of Alisha before the ceremony*
*And Jen found this on the wall inside the bar :)*
I recently entered a few of my portraits to an online photography contest called “Star Shooter Contest” (www.starshooterblog.org). Star Shooter is a non-profit organization that helps children learn the art of photography by providing them with equipment to learn the craft. All the proceeds from entering went towards helping children. With almost 200 entries from 33 states and 8 different countries, although I’m a little bummed (haha) I didn’t get the Grand Prize (brand new camera), I am thrilled and honored to have been awarded with a honorable mention! Here is my image, titled..
“Will You Dance With Me?”
What a fun idea!
