so i admitted to my husband last night that i like barry manilow + i guess now to you as well. why am i telling you this? well, because of the title post [mandy-duh] + because i am open to being a little vulnerable. this shoot was done at the end of my winter hibernation. i hadn't picked up my camera in months + i was in some serious need of getting out of my website designing funk + actually creating something. so an opportunity arose to shoot in a quirky old school. mandy, a dear + willing friend agreed to be the life in these school still-life series. i admit i didn't really have a focus. i just wanted to shoot. to play with light + shadows. but i feel like without a point of view i may have failed but i blame being just newly out of hibernation.
even in the midst of a slushy winter storm, rosecliff mansion was the perfect backdrop for lindays + jadon's intimate wedding with their closest family + friends. they exchanged vows at st mary's parish in bristol. the dance floor was packed all night + everyone was warmed by the immense love that radiated the entire event.
