See …. not all of my blogs are about beautiful brides ….

Taylor could easily have her own album from last nights wedding … hint, hint dad

The fist image is Taylor waiting to be lined up for the ceremony which was a half hour late … could you tell by her expression.

The Riverview

It was a warm one yesterday outside and inside

I arrive to the brides (Cate) room yesterday at the Simsbury Inn and was greeted with Cate sitting in a chair wearing nothing except her wedding corset … (no … I’m not showing you those images) … and continued to work as usual while thinking nothing about it, just looking for the next good image.

After a few minutes I entered another room were Cate just put her gown on and …. Oh … My … God … I was a kid in a candy store

At that moment, still after 27 years, why I love my job about being a photographer …. it doesn’t get any better then this!

It’s a very magical time when it all clicks and you nail the shot like the above image with  beautiful window light, striking composition and of course … a beautiful and stunning subject as Cate was.

Which leaves me asking myself if I am normal getting more excited about the light then a gorgeous women in her underwear?

…. I’m good … I hope I don’t change.

On a sad note

Our dog for over 14 years passed away last night in his sleep.  Everyone who came to the studio knew Tucker, he usually greeted you by your car.  He was never tied up … he just enjoyed being around people and hanging around the house.

I’m going to miss him, he was a great friend.

About an hour after coming home from the veterinarians I took this image of the sky over my house/studio …. do you believe in signs.
