Connecticut Junior Amateur Quarter Final Round

I had an opportunity to photograph the quarter final round of the Connecticut Junior Amateur Golf Tournament at Watertown Country Club.  There were eight young men aged 16 and 17.  As someone who loves golf and plays as much as I possible can, watching these guys was both awesome and depressing.  They not only hit it farther than I could ever dream of, they play with a confidence that belies their age.

Bad Apples Roller Derby Team

We had an opportunity to photograph some of the members of New York City’s “Bad Apples” roller derby team.  They were great!

 

Beauty Shoot at the Adam Broderick Salon and Spa

Way back in April I had the opportunity to do a beauty shoot with the folks at the Adam Broderick Salon and Spa in Southbury CT.  It’s only now that I’ve had some time to work on this post, weddings have kept us jumping this year.  Anyway,  Maggie and Kim were great models to work with – comfortable in front of the camera and not afraid to show a little attitude.  But I really think the stars of the evening were Bill, who did everyone’s hair, and Agnes, Tiffany, and Brit who did make-up and style.  They were first rate professionals all the way and a pleasure to work with.  They all made my job easy.  So my hat is off to all of them for giving me one of the easiest photographic evenings I’ve ever had.

 

The Mayflower Inn

I need to express my thanks to the Mayflower Inn & Spa.  The Mayflower is a stunningly beautiful inn located in Washington, Connecticut.  The gardens are a visual delight and the spa is washed in sunlight.  Take a look.

Jamie and Grant

I was so excited when Jamie and Grant asked me to photograph them a month before they expected to become new parents.    They’re great people who make a wonderful couple.  Their wedding was a complete blast.  I think Will and I had as much fun as the guests.  They came to the studio as casual as ever and needed very little prompting from me.  I’d say, “Just stand here”, and their genuine affection for each other and excitement for the future took right over.
