Shannon and Dave Maternity Portraits

Ray Hennessy — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 16:04:14 +0000

Kim and I met up with my good friends Shannon and Dave (the first wedding I photographed on my own) this past weekend to finally take some maternity portraits. We had this scheduled a few times and the ridiculous amounts of snow in the area forced us to cancel our previous attempts. That turned out to be a blessing since we were still able to go out and shoot in the snow at Batsto Village and it was one of the warmest days in weeks. We started out at their house and took a few shots of the new baby’s room which Dave and Shannon created. They own their own construction company and specialize in high end trim work which was noticeable by the amazingly detailed room. We took a few more portraits around the house in different rooms and then we hung out for little while waiting for the light to get better.

After catching up for a bit we all headed over to Batsto Village just outside Hammonton, NJ. It was a perfect day for photography there, warm, sunny, and snowy. Shannon had the idea for the picture with the umbrella which I really dig. We walked around a bit and just worked at a few different locations all while enjoying the gorgeous light that afternoon. Kim and I had a great time photographing them and we’re looking forward to the baby coming and more photos to be taken then.

We wish you a happy healthy baby Shannon and Dave and thanks for having us be your photographers. Looking forward to more great times!

Erin & Mike’s Winter Wedding at the Savoy Inn

Finally getting around to posting my friends Erin and Mike’s wedding. It was a cold, but beautiful day in January and Kim and I had a great time photographing their wedding. Erin’s family was so inviting and fun and of course it was great to be a part of a high school friend’s (Mike) wedding. We had plenty of time after the ceremony at the gorgeous Sacred Heart church in Vineland, NJ for pictures. It was perfect evening light and we got a chance to stop at a local park and take a few quick (it was freezing) pictures there which are some of my favorite. Then we were off to the Savoy Inn just down the road a bit again in Vineland. It looked amazing at the inn and we got a great shot of the couple on the dance floor before all the guests arrived. Thanks again to Erin and Mike for asking us to be their photographers.

WMMR Cardboard Classic

ast Friday I went to Jack Frost Mountain along with Kim to see WMMR’s Preston and Steve’s Cardboard Classic. The whole idea is to have people build sleds out of cardboard and send them down the tubing hill and watch the mayhem. It was hilarious to say the least, cardboard, people, and snowballs flying everywhere. Here are a couple of the shots and you can view my whole best of gallery here

March Snow Storm

The day after the snow storm on March 1st, I went out to photograph the snow. It’s the first real amount of snow we’ve had around here in South Jersey for a few years that I can remember. It was really windy and I had to keep covering the camera every time a gust of wind would come by and blow snow all over the place, but I got a few really great shots. These are all taken at Blue Heron Pines Golf Club which is were my girlfriend Kim lives. It was great that there was nobody else out and the snow was still undisturbed.
