I said, "Yes!"

To my best friend! I couldn't be more excited! Aaron and I met just over two years ago while I was in New York for a wedding. It was love at first sight, or, a more honest description, I immediately informed my sister how cute I thought he was. =) Either way I ended up spending much on my next ten days in the Hudson Valley with him and was smitten. I simply cannot wait to be wed to such a wonderful man! I am so excited to share the planning and eventually, big day, as it all unfolds; although I am a bit weary as to whether working hundreds of weddings will help or hinder the process. =) Stay tuned for all the exciting details to come!

*These photos were taken by the wonderful Kate Rose Photography just a few months into our relationship (Feb. 2009). While I plan on doing an engagement session before the big day, I will always cherish these for the beautiful moments captured at the infancy of our love.

What a wonderful wedding at a gorgeous winery. Eagle Castle Winery is located just outside of Paso Robles, CA and couldn't be more magical. Not only was the venue stunning but Becca and Matt were an absolute blast to work with. A special thanks to Natalie of Evitaerc Events; her coordination and attention to detail is impeccable. Here are some favorites from the day.

I am so excited about this months issue of JOIE Magazine. Not only did I get to collaborate with the awesome Jennafer of Jennafer Grace but my photograph made the cover! I absolutely loved shooting this editorial and cannot wait to do another. Have a look and enjoy the "Frill of the Hunt!"

I had such a wonderful time at the shoot and have so many favorite images. Below, I have included a few more of my favorites that were not featured in the magazine.
