Katie and Connor had a really lovely gathering in their family friend’s  backyard in the middle of the day with a band to boot!  

It is always nice when summer rolls around 7th and 5th grades are next for these two. Summertime  Random Snaps on the waaaaayyyy…..

The smoke that passed over the house, originated from a part of my home province Ontario.  To get to where the fires are currently burning, you would have to drive for about two full days.  For real, I feel like we should just get used to this type of thing.

It happened to be gently raining for Meghan and Jon’s engagement session and it could not have been more perfect.

So long spring.

Spring in NJ is an absolute pleasure!  With a fun and happy couple, you can miss.  I connected with Kirsten and Peter at the NJ side of Washington Crossing State Park.  Although the park is familiar and in my backyard, it was the first portrait session there.   I look forward to their fall wedding at the Hopewell Golf Course! 

A few sights from spring.  This is easily my fav time of year to be outside with the camera.

Just a few very random, yet small-world photos here.  I captured Chuck from MBB in action at Spooky Nook . Chuck is the brother of Ronald Moore, whose wedding I photographed back in 2017. It was a really solid tourney, and although it would have been nice to win it all, it was nice to see that the 11U  Moore Brothers Basketball team won the tournament that weekend.  Nice to see good people win.

A few Random snaps from a recent trip to Pittsburgh.  I spent a lot of time in the summers on Somerset St.  Running down those stairs to catch the ice cream truck and bombing down hills on shitty BMX bikes, and playing basketball was a great day in August.  Sad to see that the neighborhood is falling down.

It was easy-breezy hanging out with Brooke and Dan at Race St. Pier and Old City.  We had a cool bright day and could have easily spent another hour just chatting.  My absolute fav thing about portrait sessions is when the couple is dressed up sharp and are heading out for dinner after we meet.  My hope is that during our shoot we walk and talk enough that they build up a nice appetite and their cheeks are sore from all the smiling, that they have an awesome dinner and rad night.  What better way to spend the day, eh? As an added bonus, my couples always leave with a lot of useless facts about Canada to discuss and fact-check at the table, lol.
