Hey Readers!
I told you I would try and write more frequently. This last week I had the pleasure of working with the Pasquale family! Jennifer hired me to capture her family at Wrightsville Beach. Unfortunately the weather had other plans for our original shooting day. I was really hopeful the rain was going to pass by the time we had to meet, but it showed zero mercy that Sunday and just kept on coming. Thankfully we could reschedule for later in the week… but for those of you non-Wilmington residents this weather is just B-A-N-A-N-A-S! It was in the 50s all last week, but today?! Today it was 73. My mind is completely blown!
We planned to have our reshoot on that Wednesday, of course when I woke up that morning it was raining and like 30 degrees. Okay so it may have been more like 45 degrees, but hello beach photoshoot! No matter what we were going to be human popsicles. Jennifer and I contemplated on rescheduling again, but we really wanted to get these in before Christmas so we trekked on. The rain went away around noon and the sun decided to grace us with her presence, that is until session time.
I will say the Pasquale’s are troopers when it comes to weather! Granted they moved from Michigan so they are as accustomed to the cold as I am. But having a photoshoot in December on the beach, barefoot mind you, does make for an interesting time. We had about thirty minutes to get photos of Sophia, 14, Gavin 11, Jennifer and her Husband Daniel. Of course, I was up for the challenge to make it look like they were having blast and not freezing in the interim. Oddly enough the water was warmer than outside, so Gavin kept dunking his toes in the ocean. I think by the time our session was over our noses were bright red and our toes were chilled, but we did it! I will have the photos of the chilly day below!
Happy Holidays!!
Xoxo, Kaitlyn
I knew from the moment our engagement session started in February that Joe & Sam’s wedding was going to be a tear-filled day — not just their eyes, but mine too. I’m a total softie when it comes to love. It’s what drew me into this industry in the first place. And these two? They […]
There’s just something about spring that brings stories to life. The sun feels warmer, the flowers show off, and love seems to radiate through every soft breeze and golden hour glow. I recently had the honor of photographing two incredible couples—Cyrus & Chloe and Grace & Anthony—on back-to-back spring days, and it felt like living inside two fairytales. Their sessions were filled with blooms, romance, and nods to their personal love stories. So I’m bundling both into one dreamy post.
Let’s get entirely too excited together, shall we? 💐✨
Winter engagement sessions always have a special kind of magic—snowy landscapes, intimate moments, and cozy vibes that make everything feel like a winter wonderland. I had the pleasure of capturing two amazing couples this season, and the result was nothing short of breathtaking. Katie & Hunter: Snow, Stairs, and Sweet Moments We kicked off Katie […]
When you imagine a wedding, you might picture bright daylight, sparkling windows, and an airy ambiance. But what if I told you that a wedding could be just as magical in the intimate glow of a darker setting? Welcome to the unforgettable celebration of this couple’s love at The Corinthian in Sharon, Pennsylvania.
Gina & Cody’s wedding at Yankee Lake Ballroom was full of love, laughter, and joyful tears. See their emotional first look and dreamy portraits at Buhl Park!
Earlier in the day, both Jake and Veronique were getting ready in separate rooms. Although they were apart, you could sense the nervous excitement from both of them. Each one was eagerly anticipating the moment they would meet at the altar. As a result, the energy in both rooms was a beautiful mix of butterflies and joy. Because of this, the day felt even more special and full of love.
Capturing heartfelt, magical moments that sparkle with love and stay with you forever.
