There isn't a day that goes by that both Matt and I feel incredibly blessed and excited by our job as photographers. We've said it before, and we'll say it again; our clients are awesome. Not only do we get to experience a period of peoples lives that is full of love and excitement, be right by their side surrounded by the people they love most as they become a family...we also get to meet new friends. Melissa and Jonathan are no exception. You may remember that Melissa and Jonathan were the masterminds behind our new website, logo and branding. They are both Graphic Designers living in Brooklyn who are not only incredibly talented at what they do, they are also really splendid people. We've gotten to know them both professionally and personally throughout the last year and we're getting excited for their June wedding which will be at Melissa's father's Farm in New Hampshire. Jonathan proposed to Melissa at a bookstore in their neighborhood (as seen above) with an amazing project that he crafted by hand with a mini accordion booklet of their love story hidden inside an old expenses journal (also seen above). The old book was hidden in the shelves of the store and Jonathan helped guide Melissa to look at it, open it and read what Jonathan has written. Then he got on one knee and asked her to be his wife. How sweet is that? They are going to be incorporating the accordion style paper goods into their wedding, along with dozens of other personalized touches. We more than enjoyed our time photographing them around their neighborhood in Brooklyn and know that it's just a small taste of the goodness that is yet to come!
Sneak Peek: NYC
Happy Monday! Or if you're in Boston, Happy Marathon/Patriots Day! While Boston is buzzing with warm weather and the excitement of the big run, we're busy working on some images from our trip to NYC last weekend. One of the reasons we love living in New England is the close proximity of so many exciting destinations including New York City. We have a handful of clients who live in the big apple or even further south in Philadelphia who will be having weddings in the Boston area this year. We're always looking for a good excuse to travel, so we headed down to New York for the weekend last weekend to do some portrait sessions. There will be lots more photos from these sessions in the coming weeks, so keep in mind that this is just a little taste of the sessions we did while we were there.
On Friday we met up with Annie and Kevin who will be getting married in May.
Little story about this last image: Annie and Kevin met while working at FAO Schwartz, so we started our session taking photos around the store. We have more to share about this fun portion of the shoot when we blog their entire session, but we couldn't resist sharing this shot from the Angry Birds section of the store. Makes us laugh every time.
Next we met up with Dawn, Robbie and their adorable lab, Miley in Central Park!
Don't you just love this last pair? It has my heart a-flutter.
Then it was over to Brooklyn to meet up with the amazing Melissa and Jonathan who designed our website! 
They are the cutest.

And finally we got to meet up with the super talented, Tzo Ai from Ang Weddings and Events. After tea and her generous gifting of some tasty macarons (which seems to be an excellent recurring event) we snapped a few headshots of her in the flat iron district.
There you have it! A small taste of Summer Street's weekend in the big apple. Watch for all of their individual blog posts in the coming weeks, there's a lot more where this came from!
