Thursday

Back to the Bates Mansion yet again.

When I received a call from Steve D. over at Digital Flannel, a local ad/design firm here in town, first thought was that he might be looking to book me for a shoot down at Okemo Resort.  (Steve handles a lot of the Okemo stuff for Digital Flannel)  Turns out it was for a shoot, not for Okemo, but for his wedding.  "That's great, congratulations!"  What also was great, the wedding was to take place right down the road at the Bates Mansion at Brook Farm.  I have shot a few weddings before at the Bates along with a cover for Vermont Vows Magazine, and every time I shoot there the images come out great and my assistant and I have a wonderful time.  Steve, Adrian and their families couldn't be more friendly, the staff at the Bates was awesome and the weather, although a little cloudy to start, was perfect.  Enjoy the pic's.













The light really started to pop as the sunset.  Really beautiful.







These next four is a great sequence shot with my ring-light.








Saturday

Down to Okemo for Jen and Dave.

It was mid-August and myself and my assistant Kaht were deep in the middle of wedding season.  August is typically my busiest month and 2008 was no exception.  This weekends wedding took Kaht and I just down the road to Okemo Mountain Resort for the nuptials of Jen and Dave.  Turns out Jen and Dave were long time Killington locals like myself and I saw many familiar faces throughout the day.  Their wedding had the most perfect weather of the whole summer, not a cloud in the sky and just the perfect temperature.  The ceremony took place at the new Jackson Gore area at Okemo.  Kaht and I came away with great images and we had a blast to boot.
