Best of 2016 Weddings with KRP

Hello beautiful,

I am in complete disbelief that 2016 is almost over! Where does the time go?! I feel so blessed for the many opportunities and places that this year has given me. After graduating from Hallmark Institute of Photography in June and moving back up to Vermont, I was given an incredible job opportunity doing what I absolutely love. Education sure doesn't stop after school. I have learned SO much working for Kelsey Regan Photography. Not only is she THE best boss but she is also a stellar teacher. 

I have put together a collection of my images I shot while second shooting for Kelsey this season. I am very thankful for being able to travel New England doing what I love. And I am so excited to see what next year has in store for us!

Kailee & Nick | 10.29.16

You just can't beat Autumn in New England! The cool crisp air and of course the turning of the leaves are just a few things that make up my favorite season. I was ecstatic when I found out Kailee & Nick's wedding was in October! There was just enough foliage hanging on to make for a stunning backdrop. Not to mention these two! I am very thankful to my design instructor, Todd, at Hallmark Institute of Photography for connecting us. Kailee & Nick were an absolute joy to work with. And I'm not just saying that! You could feel the love throughout the entire day. Just the way they looked at each other. Absolutely real and true. And it didn't stop with Kailee & Nick. Their family and friends were involved with so many aspects of their day from the planning, to the flowers, hair & makeup, DJ, and officiant. Kailee & Nick were surrounded by so many beautiful people and I am so happy I was able to capture their day!

Rose & Gabe | 09.03.16 - Milton, VT

Good morning beautiful.

Oh Rose. Where do I begin?! I guess it all started when I showed up to try-outs for the Mount Mansfield Varsity Dance team in 2007 as an itty bitty Freshman. I was one of 12 girls who went out for the team that year and guess what?! We all made it! Phew. Rose has had and continues to have such a huge impact on the MMU Dance program. It would not be where it is today without her and I am proud to call myself an alumni.

Thank you Rose, for getting by butt up for 6:15am practices every day, of every week, of every winter for four years. And thank you for always believing in us!

It was such an honor to be a part of your special day. I truly felt like part of the family. Every detail was carefully thought out and so personal. Every vendor was not only local but friends of the bride and groom! And seriously check out that bouquet?!? How unique. Each brooch was a gift from the special ladies in her life.

It means so much to me that I was able to capture memories that you will have for a lifetime. There is no one more deserving of your happiness than you and Gabe. Thank you for being you, my coach, a mentor and my friend!

Kaitlan & Ethan

Hello lovely.

How gorgeous are these two, not to mention the perfect sunset behind the weeping willow trees in Deerfield, MA?! I will never forget the way I felt after this photoshoot for my final portfolio at Hallmark Institute of Photography. The team I had to help me make this all come together was AMAZING, I could not have done it without them. I had a vision and they helped me make it a reality. 

I have to first thank Becky at Floral Affairs in Greenfield, MA for the drop dead gorgeous bouquet and boutonniere. They were icing on the cake! My classmate and friend Tiahna Lynn for the stunning hair & makeup (I know who I will be calling when I get married!) My partner in crime, Yael Pachino, for making a killer behind the scenes video of how I got the shot, and my amazing friend, Liz Hidalgo, for being the perfect assistant. I am not sure where I would be now without the three of them. 

I also could not have done this photoshoot without the cooperation of my amazing models Kaitlan & Ethan. I appreciate all of the time they put into making the photoshoot come to life. They knew all the right questions to ask as we worked poses and troubleshooted technical difficulties. Their chemistry, along with Ethan's acting experience was the perfect touch to make my vision come true. They were positive and enthusiastic the entire time which made the experience fun for everyone!

So again, a huge THANK YOU to my beautiful people <3

Elegant Window Light

Hello beautiful.

Don't you just LOVE clean, gorgeous natural light? What could be better! I was in heaven putting this photo shoot together for my Phase III Additional Personal Submissions at Hallmark Institute of Photography. The goal of this assignment was to give us the opportunity to personalize a body of work that includes images which represent specific areas of interest to us. I personally love, love. I love real moments, that are true, emotional and stunning.

For this shoot I did my fair share of running around the Greenfield, MA area speaking to florists and bridal dress shops in order to put all of this together. A big thanks to Shelley and Danielle from The Bridal Barn & Tux Shoppe located in Deerfield, MA. Danielle was not only the perfect model, but she also helped me coordinate the style of gown, with the jewelry, head piece and all the little details. I was extremely fortunate to also work with Rebecca from Floral Affairs located in Greenfield MA. She is a true artist and her flower bouquets were masterpieces! I cannot thank her enough.

The location above the Replay Music Store in Greenfield was perfect. The huge window gave me gorgeous natural light and the old wooden walls and floor were beautiful. And did you see that chandelier!?! Just wow. Also a huge shout out to my lady Amber for doing stunning hair and makeup and Yael for assisting me with the shoot! I could not have pulled this off without everyone involved and I appreciate everyone's time and effort helping my romantic vision come to life.

Cheers.
