Samantha & Joshua Estela's Wedding Day 10/15/2011

What an amazingly fun wedding I shot on Saturday! It was also great cause I had no idea I knew the bride personally. She worked with my boyfriend a few years back and she finally got married. I am so happy for her and her new husband Josh. They are so great together. They wedding took place in Dighton and It was a great because it was nice and secluded being a small wedding with just close family and friends. I know when I get married one day, that's the way I would want to do it.

I am so glad as well that I was able to get shots her getting her hair and make-up done because I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to with having a full-time job outside of this hobby and all ;) There are going to have a reception next year in May which is GREAT for me because that means I have a second opportunity to get shots that I wasn't able to get this time around. Samantha's family and friends were so funny and easy-going it was a blast being a part of there big day.

Boudoir - Private

I have never really done boudoir photos before but I always thought they would be fun to do. This particular newly wed wanted to surprised her husband with some sexy photos of herself as a gift. I am respecting her wishes by only posting a few that do not show her face fully. She definitely is a gorgeous girl and I hope her husband enjoys the photos once I make the photo book for her. 

Benjamin Thomas - Three Weeks Old

I can't say enough how much I love newborns. You only get that one time to get great photos of them and I believe I was able to get that for Rachel's newborn baby Benjamin. He was so good! Woke up for most of them which is very rare at this age but at the end he got a little tired and started falling back asleep which I was glad we were able to get a few nice sleeping baby ones :) Here are some of my favorites from the session. It was really hard to not love all of them.

Kyle Lee aka Kaysell - Hip Hop Musican

I was at first a little skeptical doing this session only because I had never done these type of photos before. I was excited to take on this new challenge in hopes of an amazing end result! I was trying to figure what he was looking for through out the process and thought a few ideas that he might like. In the end, he loved the edits and the photos I shot and was interested in shooting more in the future!

 

Aaliyah and Manny's Session - Newborns and Children

I was so excited to shoot Aaliyah and Manny's photos this day. Manny was such a good boy, he posed and smiled awesomely. Aayliah was a little harder to get to sleep but a successful second visit, we were able to get those sleeping baby ones that will be hard to catch when they are older. Here a few favorites :)
