Boston Engagement Photos…..
Posted by Erik | Filed under Behind the Camera, Erik's Thoughts, Headlines, Recent Events, Wedding
Wow Spring is almost here. We are all looking forward to the warmer weather. Colleen and I have been busy designing and are looking forward to our shooting season to open up. I really miss photographing each weekend seeing what each day will bring. Until then we shoot as much as we can. We just finished a few engagement sessions both in Boston and the North Shore. Here below we put an engagement Vplay together for Caroline and Jason. There wedding is July 4th at the Boston Harbor Hotel. We were able to photograph inside the dome area for the Engagement Session. I love the daylight there. I hate using flash. People usually over-light with flash and you get this cheesy ‘hi its me and my uncle shot this’ look. If we use flash it is because we have to and at that usage should always be light. Enjoy the engagement session images and check back mid-July for their Wedding Day Vplay-It will be great! Erik

Best Day at work….. Ever

Well, what can I say… There’s never a dull moment here at work…
Matt and Leah have been really close with us throughout the year. When we shot their engagement session last summer we were discussing their wedding plans and what they expected out of the wedding. One thing they made absolutely clear to us was that there would be NO chicken dance at the wedding. So of course it became this long running joke that we would higher a chicken to come and dance at their wedding. I remember throughout the year Erik and I would say that for the wedding we need to do the chicken dance idea. Of course the wedding came and went.. and we fell through on our chicken plan. Shame on us..
We really enjoy Matt and Leah. It was so much fun on their wedding day and we found two great new friends out of those whole wedding process! A couple of weeks ago we were at a wedding and I realized that the reception was down the street from Leah and Matt’s house. Erik and I thought it would be a fantastic idea to surprise them after the wedding! Or even better sneaking into their apt building when they aren’t there.. And waiting till they come home and surprising them! Stalkers? No I don’t think so! What a fun night that was! Who wouldn’t love you’re two wedding photographers showing up on a Saturday night to hang out? Matt and Leah are a blast. And not to mention we had our cameras with us so of course we had to do what we did best..
Okay.. so fast forward to today…. It’s Erik’s birthday. Matt and Leah gave me a heads up last week that they had something planned.. well needless to say, Erik and I got a surprise guest here at PWP this afternoon. I will let the photo explain itself!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIK. It definitely started out with a …. Chicken!!!!
