Pooch Portraits ::: Max & Betty ::: 08.23.09

I love small town America. The wonderful pet food shop where I buy Grover's food displays my book and business card. I was contacted by Max & Betty's dad to take some pooch pics after he flipped through "It's Not Over 'Til It's Grover." Of course, I was MORE than happy to oblige.

Max was the BIGGEST shepherd (a Shiloh Shepherd to be exact) I have ever seen. He was absolutely enormous... but such a gentle giant. And Betty was his little spitfire Corgi sister. I had such a blast spending the afternoon with them... as I'm sure you'll be able to tell from the upcoming onslaught of photos!

We spent a little time inside just letting Max get used to my presence. He wasn't too sure about my camera.






Betty on the other hand... no warming up necessary.




And out we went for lots and lots of romping! I'm pretty sure these tell the story pretty well. =)










Ahhh... some down time.










Sweet face.


Schnoz.


Doesn't get more regal than this!


Happy boy!


L'il Miss 'Tude.








JACKPOT!


Buh-bye! =)


Thank you so much for having me over Katherine and Ralph!!! Smooches to Max and Betty.

Wedding ::: 08.01.09 ::: Stamford Yacht Club

A couple weekends ago, I joined the crazy talented Amanda of Orchard Cove Photography for Jessie and Joe's wedding. Such a great day. HOT and HUMID... but it didn't matter. It was a terrific day!!!

Here are a few of my favorites from the day. =)




Isn't Jessie too cute? I couldn't resist...


Everyone everywhere was so calm, cool, and collected.








Beautiful St. Roch Church in Greenwich.


Awww!


The girls were just too cute.






We did portraits at a friend's house down on the water... stunning location.


Super cute place cards carrying the green and yellow theme...


Or should I say "lemon and lime"?


The gorgeous Stamford Yacht Club...


"Sunny" grapes!


Yum.




I've never been to a wedding with a fresh made sushi station before!




Cue the Mission Impossible music! Dun-dun-da-da-dun-dun... look closely... can you see the stealth photographer?


Yes, Amanda Herzberger... gettin' the job done!


Everyone look up at Amanda!!!


Heading back inside...


The new Mr. & Mrs.!






I still get choked up during parents dances. So sweet.






Honorary bridesmaids? No, just the same incredible taste in dresses! =) Too cute!


Honorary groomsmen? No, just the same taste in dress shirts! Hee hee!


Drool.


And the party rocked on and on... =)


Thank you Amanda for having me along! And many happy congratulations to Jessie and Joe!!!
