2009 wedding season is over
This Saturday Isaac and I concluded our 2009 wedding season with Katie & Rob's wedding at St. Mary's and the American Foundry. This whole year we were thinking there was going to be snow on the ground for their wedding, so when we planned for snow and got 55* weather and no snow I was very excited! Every part of the day was planned perfectly, from the gorgeous Alfred Angelo dresses, to the speculator music during the ceremony, and also the amazing food/decorations at the reception. My pregnant belly was very happy after eating the amazing spread prepared for everyone. Kudos to Rob for helping the American Foundry create an exquisite menu!
Our 2009 wedding season was one of our best years yet. I will hopefully do a recap of the year later this week. We photographed 25 amazing weddings and got to meet hundreds of people. It will be a year to remember for sure, especially because I was pregnant nearly ALL of the wedding season. Tomorrow I will post my favorites from katie & Rob's wedding but because of the Thanksgiving break we are taking starting Tues. evening, the rest of the photos will not be available for another few weeks.
I had to have a few photos taken of me during the reception to capture my belly and I at 32 weeks pregnant and still shooting a wedding. I felt great all day, now Sunday was a different story!
I bought this shirt within a week of finding out I was pregnant for me to wear at this wedding. I haven't been big enough until now to fit into it, so I was so excited to finally wear it after months of looking at it hanging in my closet. This photo of Isaac and I was taken by DJ Brian Otto, who did a great job, this was at the end of our 8 hr day of standing so we were both sore and tired, but we don't look too shabby I think.
We have now passed the 2 months left mark. I cannot believe how quick this is going! My baby showers are coming up in a few weeks and then with Christmas, New Years, and possibly a bridal show in early Jan. we do not have much "prep" time before my due date on Jan 22nd.
You all have a wonderful day!!!!

Stealth Isaac & Wedding slideshow
Isaac in stealth mode during the father daughter dance. What a handsome setup he's got there. Nikon D700 with grip, Nikkor 24-70mm 2.8 Lense, SB-900 flash... OOO I love our equipment!
Just a cool photo I came upon while editing our last October wedding. This was taken from outside looking in on some of the guests checking out our slideshow, that is why you get the reflection of the grass/lake/chairs in the glass. Our slideshows have become a huge hit at every wedding we photograph. We love being able to offer some of our favorite images for your family and friends to see. We don't bring a small laptop, like most photographers, we bring our large IMAC computer, quite an impressive setup. If the reception venue has LCD screens and a VGA input we can hook up to the screens, cool huh???!!!
Our last wedding for 2009 is this Saturday, I cannot wait to see Rob & Katie all dazzled up. It will also be our last wedding before the baby comes, 2 months until my due date as of Sunday. Also we will be out of the office from Wed-Sun of next week for Thanksgiving festivities. This will be our last time traveling to Saratoga Springs, my hometown, since when Christmas comes around I will be only a few weeks from my due date and will not be doing ANY traveling.
Also here are this years Christmas deadlines:
Canvases:
Order before Dec. 3rd for standard shipping (included)
Order before Dec. 10th for expedited shipping (extra charge)
Coffee table books: (engagement signing books, portrait books, gift books, etc.)
Order before Dec. 4th
Standard print sizes:
Order before Dec. 12th for delivery before Christmas

Kara & Paul's E-session
One of my most favorite engagement sessions to date, for many reasons. Including such a fun couple and great locations. We started out at Fallbrook and then after a quick outfit change we ventured on over to East Park and the Railroad tunnel. I love this location so much. I am hoping to get more couples and wedding parties out to East Park for their portraits. The tunnel gave me a Central Park vibe with the park benches, old fashioned street lights, and stone walls. All the leaves had fallen already but we still had great landscapes and backdrops to work with. Kara & Paul are getting married in August of 2010 out at Paul's parents house in the country. I can't wait to see the tent, decor, and all other details these two put together for their big day. Enjoy some of my favorite photos in a first for Kain's Photography: slideshow by Animoto.
I believe this week will be an excellent time to have an engagement portrait taken, so if you are thinking about having one done, give me a call and we can set something up before the snow falls!

Jen & Jon's wedding
On October 17th, 2 weeks ago, we had the honor to photograph Jen & Jon's wedding out at Bayshore. This was our 11th and final Bayshore wedding of the year. We love shooting there so much, each and every wedding is unique! We especially love fall weddings at Bayshore, the fall colors are perfect, the pumpkins are an added touch, and the lake is a nice cool contrast to warm fall colors. Here are some of my favorites:
Just announced for the first time as husband and wife, these two looked at eachother with such great emotion!
Jon & His twin, can you tell?
It was so cold out there, Jen being one of the most thoughtful brides I have ever met brought a trunk filled with blankets for all their guests to use during the outside ceremony. We took advantage of these brown blankets to wrap the bridesmaids up in while we took some shots down by the chilly lake.
Love the sky!
Staring into each other eyes during the first dance, these two noticed no one but each other during their song. So cute!
Loved all the fall decoration around the room!
