Philip + Meredith: New Orleans Engagement

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

This was a very special engagement session because the groom is my brother! I’m so happy for him and just delighted to welcome Meredith to our family! Despite the freezing temperature and wind, we braved the French Quarter and City Park one Sunday morning and rewarded ourselves with beignets after. We spent a good deal of the session by Preservation Hall because of the couple’s love of music. I can’t wait for their wedding in November, and I’m so glad I won’t be photographing it! It will be nice to be a guest for a change. :)

Kristi + Cale: New Orleans City Park Engagement

Thursday, September 8th, 2011

Awhile back I got to photograph Kristi and her beau Cale in a really fun and creative engagement session at their home in New Orleans and in City Park. The couple thought up several different stories to enact for the camera making it more like an editorial fashion shoot than a typical engagement session! But I can tell by the way they created the stories, assembled clothing, and props, they are truly a great team! And that is what marriage is all about. :) And now I also know that a cupcake maker exists!

I know Kristi from way back. Her parents lived across the street from my grandmother, so I’m sure our first meeting was as babies! (And my Granny says Kristi’s mom liked my name, so perhaps, I was her name inspiration? Then again, there are lots of Christy, Kristy, Kristi, and Kristies etc out there :) We met again in college when we both joined the same sorority. Of course I’m really excited to be a part of Kristi’s wedding to Cale in October!

Annalise + Scott: Brooklyn Engagement Session

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

I had such a great time with Annalise and Scott for their engagement shoot in DUMBO, Vinegar Hill and the Brooklyn Bridge. We even had a celebrity sighting! They are getting married in New Orleans in March, but live in Brooklyn, so just the perfect couple for me!

Scott recognized actress Beth Grant on the right, as we left the bridge. She was kind enough to take a picture with us. Such a New York moment….. :)
