Rob and I had our first offical adventure here in England.
Sunday AM Gaz and Aveen woke us up and we headed towards
the Delmare Forrest. The day started a bit chilly but sunny….sun
here is very rare this time of year.We walked into the forest and went Ape
at Go Ape! which is a high wire forest
adaventure.!

Here Gaz, Aveen and Rob are getting ready to go ape!

There are many obstacles up in the trees to get through and at the end of each obstacle
was a zip line! SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!

DUring the day the weather was touch and go….. windy rainy and then a rainbow!

After about 3 hours we did it and completed the course!

LAURIE & RYAN: ENGAGED

November 14, 2008

It was spring of 2000 he lived on the 2nd floor and she lived on the third.
They became friends and hung out all the time. She even asked him to help
write a paper on the cold war. They laughed, they cried, they partied!

Now they are engaged!
Meet Kim & Ryan : ENGAGED

Meg and I started our day at Gampel on the Uconn campus. It was slightly raining so it was
a good place to start and warm up.

Ryan kept Laurie laughing and brought out her smiles!

I could not believe it that the gate was open and we could go onto the court!
Never ask just do!!!!!

after a bit we walked around outside.

I think this maybe my favorite of the day with Gampel behind!

We enjoyed the weather

Stopped in front of the old dorm in the Jungle where they met!

and climbed on some walls!

it was a good day!

Laurie & Ryan we cannot wait to phtoograph your wedding we know it is gonna
be a fun day filled with laughs!

Until July enjoy this slideshow here!

KIM & PETE : ENGAGED

November 13, 2008

“We became friends our freshman year in high school, pre algebra class.
We started dating our senior year in high school and have been together ever since!” -Kim

That’s right Kim and Pete are High School sweethearts! And now they are getting ready to tie the knot
and make it official! But not until July 2009……..

So……….. what better way to end 2008 than to photograph their getting to know you session.
When talking to Kim on the phone I was asking her all kinds of question on what they like to do.
The WALA, BAM, POOF the idea finally struck!

Back to high school where they met! And get this Pete is the football coach there too!

What a perfect spot!

We meet on a beautiful Saturday morning and started out on the playground next to high school.
Come to find out if was at the elementary school Pete went to! C’mon!

Love the different angle Meg gets as I shoot above!

I LOVE this shot! Love the feel of it! Reminds me of a photo project….

Carla is always reminding me to push ourselves all the time.
So this time I was shooting out of the box!
Trying all different angles and what not!

Love this one! Right outside the high school!

Right in front where it all started!

And my fav of Meg of the day!

This one is my favorite of the day! All that negative space ahhhhh!

Kim and Pete we cannot wait for your wedding day!

Until then enjoy your slideshow!

Candace Jeffery Photography: LOVE the third to last shot!

KAITLIN & DENNY: ENGAGED

November 7, 2008

It all began in 8th grade…..

She was a teen girl and he was a cute teen boy……

“we saw each other over the next 3 years at various soccer events and reconnected before our senior year…. we’ve been together ever since.” – Kaitlin

Meet Kaitlin & Denny : Engaged!

I met Kaitlin just a couple of months ago as she came through the doors and said… I getting married the day after Christmas! We instantly connected and I got so excited! Her passion for life and for Denny just lit up her eyes!

Kaitlin & Denny’s other love is Cassidy!……… their beloved pug!

How cute is she!

Meg caught this one of them….also look Meg has her own logo so you can tell who took the shot! She has a M instead of the N!

We started our shoot out at the Wethersfield Cove. This really is a perfect spot for an engagement session. There is so much to walk around and see! The weather was perfect!

We walked around letting Cassidy get comfortable.

So as we walked around I found the amazing patch of light and of course we stopped.
Meg caught this angle!

And I caught this!

These next 2 I LOVE!
If you have not noticed yet I have a thing for black and white this post!
As always says you can get intimate photos anywhere!

We found an awesome field to play in!
Thanks Denny for being a good sport about it!
Hope you did not get any ticks!

Since Kaitlin & Denny have a love for soccer we of course had to
go to the fields nearby!

Some cuddle time!

And some fun!
I LOVE Kaitlin’s laugh and smile!

We cannot wait till the wedding day!

Robert J. Trenske: It has been way too long since I commented on your blog, but I am going to make it up and be the first to comment on this awesome post. I like them all but I love the color one of Kaitlin & Denny in the long grass and the shots of them with their dog. Great job Nikki! Hope to catch up sometime soon!
