Kelsea and Mike- A Swarthmore College, Pennsylvania Engagement Session

Not too long ago, I met up with Kelsea and Mike for their engagement session at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania (just outside of Philadelphia). 
I know Kelsea from Elizabethtown College up near Lancaster. She was my host on my overnight recruiting trip and we ended up playing lacrosse together! 
After a 5+ hour adventure getting up there (gotta love I-95), we had a great session around the campus! I had no idea how beautiful the college was until we walked around taking photos. Mike and Kelsea were absolutely adorable together!
Here are a couple of my favorites from their engagement session:

Huge thank you to Sam for coming up with me and dealing with the awful traffic on the way to and on the way back.

Keep an eye out for Kelsea and Mike's wedding photos! They will be up on the blog soon!!

On Film: Kevin and Stephen's Danfords Wedding

Not too long ago I shared Kevin and Stephen's wedding with all of you. Well, I just received their film scans, and they're gorgeous. (Y'all know how much I love film.) I am SO happy with how these turned out even though we were shooting at midday with NO shade!
For most photographers shooting digital, this is where we start hyperventilating and run for open shade, or it's time to break out the extra flash for fill. But on a dock with limited space, that wasn't an option... With film: No shade + bright sun = NO PROBLEM! This was a true test for film's latitude in these situations. It passed with flying colors.

Port Jefferson was the PERFECT backdrop for these photos, and Kevin and Stephen (now officially the Juliano's) were absolutely AMAZING to photograph! I cannot wait to see what adventures they go on in their journey together.

The technical: All were scanned by Indie Film Lab in Alabama. Shot with either a Mamiya 645afd with an 80mm 2.8 or 55mm 2.8 or a Fuji GS645 with a 75mm 3.4. All on Kodak Portra 400 +1 and exposed for shadows.
