Living at the beach it feels as though summer lasts longer than normal. But today was one of those chilly fall days that reminds us that summer has truely past us and winter is right around the corner. As my nostalgia for longer days and warmer rays grows I decided to remind myself of some of the beauty this past season offered us. I had the distinct pleasure of working with my good friend and fellow wedding vendor Leslie Menich on a beautifully styled shoot for two very very special people, Erin and Jake. They’re getting married next May and Leslie wanted to do something extra special for them. Leslie teamed up with some great vendors to put together a beautiful photoshoot.
Knowing that Erin and Jake love the beach and being out on the water I was inspired to find a beautiful boat and try something I’ve never tried before. And a boat we did find! This vessel is one of the most magnificent sail boats I have ever seen. I am so grateful to my friends Anne and Matthew for allowing us to use their boat and especially to Matthew for agreeing to take it out for us. I didn’t know how it would all work out as I’ve never tried to photograph people who are on a boat from another boat… but as I always say the proof is in the pictures and I think we did a pretty great job! It was definitely a team effort.
Erin and Jake are an awesome couple! I know Jake really loves Erin because most men would not have gone for what we put Jake through for this photo shoot!! Thank you both for being such an inspiration and for being so willing to trust our vision. Erin, you’re so gorgeous!! I can’t wait for your bridal session!! So.. without further ado.. I give you a little dose of longer days and warmer rays.
ENJOY!!!
