vicky & andy... the details!

i had the opportunity to assist and second shoot this wedding a few weeks ago with nicole duplantis, so i thought i would share some detail shots. these are always my fave part of the day, and if you read any other wedding shooter's blog, you'll quite often find that they'll admit the same thing!
these little parts of the day make such a huge difference. even though they can sometimes be overlooked by guests, you would definitely notice them more if they weren't there! they certainly make the day more colourful.
the bride and groom are always so surprised when they see the photos of them, because they generally don't see us taking the shots. it helps them to remember these smaller aspects, since they are often so busy on their big day to take notice of them. and its always nice for them to see how all their time, energy, and money spent while planning the wedding has paid off!
enjoy!

we always end up with so many lovely test shots...

summer's end...sigh

for the last month, i have been in vacation mode (with the exception of the always time consuming full-time job!), hence the lack of posts. its about time that i'm getting back into the swing of things. before i post some shots from this past weekend's wedding, here are a few snaps from last month. i tried to spend time outside with family and friends, and some cold drinks. i've also been working away (slowly) on some retouching for a wedding client. lots of yoga and soccer too (almost too much), but no pics of that!

a very special birthday dinner...

time exposure of the sky in bloomfield (i liked this one better than the ones where you can see the star trail)

and as always...there needs to be a shot of quinn.

the morning of...

wedding week is officially over in the kavanagh household, so i thought i'd wrap it up with some photos from the morning of the wedding. i took these shots at the salon for our makeup artist (see below images for salon & MUA info) so she could have some examples of her work.
an amazing day with amazing girls! here are some shots of my two gorgeous sisters.

michelle & joe

the day has finally arrived- my sister michelle and her amazing fiance joe are tying the knot tomorrow! it has been a busy couple of months and an insane week leading up to the wedding, but both of them are super chill and relaxed, which has set the tone for the rest of us. we decided to do some last minute engagement photos a couple of weeks ago, and just thought i'd share them in the spirit of this week. i also made them a photo book for the guests to sign, which i will post photos of after the wedding.
michelle and joe- i'm so happy for you and can't wait for tomorrow! love you both.

nico's salon & spa

i recently had the pleasure of shooting some images for nico's salon & spa's new website! i happened to plan the shoot during an italy world cup game (on father's day, no less), so needless to say things got pretty rowdy in the salon come game time. the photos are up on their website, and you can check out examples of their amazing talent via their facebook group.
enjoy!
