The “Off Season”…
It would likely be described by a New England photographer as something like this…. “The period of time between wrapping up the wedding season and holiday card season and the beginning of the next “season” of shooting which is typically consistent with a new, and arguably better season of weather!!! It is a time designated for projects…. LOTS and LOTS of projects!”
So what the H.E. (double the hockey sticks) happened to this off season?!?!? Oh yes, of course….. we were snowed in!!!!! This year it was snow, last year it was something else. In a nutshell, there is always something about the off season that prevents us from making it through that darn “off season” project list. So we decided to focus on not just the studio’s projects – we came up with some very serious personal projects:
Seeing how much coffee we can drink from our “neighbors to the North,” So G Coffee Roasters…. answer, it is a lot!!!!!
Debating the merits of Sweet Potato fries vs. Regular fries from our “neighbors to the South,” South Tavern. It remains a split decision…. Carrie and Molly vote Sweet. Helen and Colleen vote boring (Carrie wrote this)!
My way-too-time-consuming project/obsession with finding cool Converse Chuck Taylors… and Colleen and Bob having to reign me back in….. After all, how many pairs of Converse does one woman need? Answer….. just wait…. I will show you!!!!!!
Preparing for our interview with Better CT – which is airing tomorrow at 3pm on CT WFSB Channel 3…. We are very excited and honored that they contacted us to do a feature on the studio. (Be warned, they interviewed me in the morning, pre-coffee (see note above) so I can’t even remember what we talked about!!!!!).
Training for the upcoming Warrior Dash in June (please see our training video below… Warning – it is VERY hard core training and not for the faint of heart!). Also, please keep in mind that we are professionals and that these stunts should not be attempted at home!
So, we are getting to our studio to do list slowly but surely…. but the above projects are far more fun!!!!
And we are excited to be kicking off our 2011 shooting season in just a couple of weeks with Laura and Lowell’s awesome Boston wedding! We can’t wait!!!!

Alyson and David have not seen their wedding photos yet because they just got back from their honeymoon to do a Trash the Dress session. With their permission, I wanted to give a sneak peak at one of my favorite sessions of recent. Not only are Alyson and David so much fun, but I got to spend the morning working on a boat…. not a bad day at the office if you ask me! And, for a Colorado-born and raised gal, any time I get to see the water, it is still a novelty…. even though I have been in Connecticut for fourteen years now!
Back to Alyson and David…. Alyson’s dad (wearing his cotton, tuxedo T-shirt, I might add!) helped take us out of the marina in Niantic. A big thanks to Dad, too for helping to steady my lighting on the water. It was so fun to have you be a part of this shoot! We did a little “fishing”…. more photos to come – but thankfully we didn’t pass any schools of tuna or dad warned me that I might miss my afternoon appointments…..
Alyson and David, I hope you love them…. I know that I do. :) Thanks for taking me out on the water with you. It was a fun and relaxing treat for me – especially this time of the year!
