E-Session: Katie + McKew

Once upon a time... two strangers were doing their laundry and passing the time with a little reading. Katie: Great Expectations and McKew: The NY Times. At some point between the washing, drying and folding the magic happened. They exchanged phone numbers, went on a date and they lived happily ever after. Well, there is a lot more to it than that...but you get the idea.
We thought it would be really fun to meet up at the same laundromat where they first met to start off their session. Next it was off to Church Street in Burlington where the Discover Jazz Festival was underway. We ended up roaming around downtown and had SO MUCH FUN!!!
Andy and I are really looking forward to their wedding this summer at Shelburne Farms.
Enjoy a few of my favorite photos and then be sure to watch their slideshow at the end of the post!!
























Here is their super fun slideshow!!

Elyse + Paul's E-Session!

I met up with sweethearts Elyse + Paul at the Burlington Intervale this summer. It is such a beautful location with colorful gardens, grassy fields, farm equipment and mosquitos the size of small aircraft. Elyse + Paul were such fun and so full of love for one another. I truly enjoyed capturing their playful spirit and we can't wait to photograph their wedding at the Burlington Country Club this fall!!

Presenting Mr. + Mrs. Onion!

If I could hand out an award for the most enthusiastic bride of all times it would be presented to Lindsey! Lindsey is a blogger on a very cool website for brides called weddingbee.com. She has helped countless brides with decisions on every aspect of their weddings from invitations, to picking out dresses, to boudoir sessions. She is the best resource imaginable, and she does it in her honest and thoughtful style.
Anyway, we were so fortunate to be her photographers because she has been the biggest cheerleader since their engagement session. It has been a complete blast working with her and ultimately photographing all of the fantastic people and details that made her wedding so special.
And it was amazing! She had dreamed of having an Italian-style dinner party and chose the perfect spot for it at Adrianas on the Church Street Marketplace in Burlington. While photographing her reception I couldn't help but feel overjoyed when the sounds of laughter and conversation filled the room and I realized that her dream was fulfilled.
It was an honor to be a part of Lindsey and Nate's amazing celebration! They are the perfect pair! :-)

Lindsey and Nate prepare for their big day...







Dana at Fresh Studio did another amazing job with the flowers!! I love the colors of the bridesmaid's bouquets...
how darling is this flowergirl!
We had fun running around at University of Vermont to do their photos. I adored Lindsey's dress, it's so fabulous and retro!



I wish I could remember what was so funny!
I love the way Nate is looking at Lindsey here...
Husband and wife!
Lindsey and Nate led their guests from the church to Adrianas for the cocktail hour and reception. It was awesome!
Just a few of the fabulous details...



Nate and Lindsey took a quick break from the cocktail hour to watch this crazy clown on Church Street.
I wonder if you find this as amusing as I do.
so pretty!
As the evening was winding down, the happy couple strolled over to Ben & Jerry's for some ice cream. So fun!

don't you just love happy endings?
