Temple Family Photos

Today Kathleen & I had a great time spending the afternoon with the Temple Family for a family photo session up in Carmel, NY. The whole family was so warm and welcoming and we had such a nice time talking to them and getting to know them a little better. I got to talk to John (Father & Grandfather) who loves photography and flying which just happen to be two of my absolute favorite things. When I was photographing the smaller groups, he was right there beside me with his 5D capturing some great shots.

I was introduced to the Temple's after photographing Arin & Chris' Wedding back in October. After rescheduling the session a few times, the weather finally cooperated with us. The family is made of of 11 (unless you count the family dog, Sundance) in which case they are made up of 12. There are 4 children of which 2 are twin little girls. Be sure to check out the photo of Sundance showing his affection to the twins. Here are some of my favorites from today's session. Thank you to the Temple's for such a nice day!

Websites Back Up

After about 12 hours of none of my domains working, 1@1 finally fixed the issue. We are completely back to normal. Check back later today, I will try to have some more fun posts. I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Websites Down

Hey Everyone, I just wanted to let you know that all of my websites are currently down. I am trying to get an estimated time frame of when it will be up again but I can't seem to get the answers. In addition all of my photos, videos and slideshows included in this blog will not be viewable until this problem is resolved since those things are all hosted on the servers that are down. This is very frustrating and I apologize for the inconvenience. I hope that everything will be resolved soon.

In the meantime, I have a backup solution if you are interested in still viewing my website. You can go to my secondary domain which is http://www.RJTPicturesLLC.com. My e-mail is still up and working as well.

Katie & Jeff's Vegas Engagement Slideshow

I have been SO backed up, but I am very happy to be getting caught up on all of our projects and albums and so on. I know I haven't blogged in a couple of days and for that I apologize :). Here is Katie & Jeff's Slideshow from their engagement session in Vegas. HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!!!

Kim & Mike's Wedding

Yesterday I got to do something very cool, I got to second shoot for Vicki from Victoria Souza Photography. I was of course incredibly happy because playing this role allowed me to be more creative and just capture some really fun shots. It also worked out well because Kim & Mike had booked us for videography, so we were going to be there anyways. For those of you who don't know, we offer complete video packages. I have really great videographers that work for me and today Tony & Steve did an incredible job capturing the emotion of the day.

Yesterday was a georgeous day for a wedding and I don't think anyone could have asked for a better day. I started off the day with the guys at their hotel. We decided to take a couple shots outside and it is a good thing we did. A small fire had actually broken out in the fresh mulch by the building. The fire department came down and took care of everything. We did end up getting couple of shots in front of the truck. Mike & Kim's ceremony took place in Trumbull at the Nichols United Methodist Church and their reception was at The Lounsbury House in Ridgefield. Here are some of my photos from the day. Be sure to go to Vicki's Blog and check out her photos as well!!

Monique & Chris' Engagement Album

The other day I received Monique & Chris' finished engagement album. When designing this book, I decided to have some fun and do something different. Monique & Chris didn't want the typical book for their engagement session so this is what I came up with. I made a 12x6 album with the binding on the top. The book is bound with beautiful blue leather and an acrlyic cover. This is one very cool book. Kambara is simply the best. Take a look!

More Laura & Chris Wedding Photos

One of our friends told me that I need to post on my blog because it has been a couple days. I always find it amazing how many people check out my blog and keep up on everything that I am doing. So this post is for Robin (who is one of my loyal followers). I decided to share some more photos from Laura & Chris' wedding from last weekend. Enjoy!

Amanda & Brad's Engagement Book

For Amanda & Brad's Engagement Album I designed a beautiful AsukaBook Coffee Table Book. We offer a bunch of different types of albums. AsukaBook's are great for engagements, gifts, children or baby books as well as many other things. Here are a couple photos of Amanda & Brad's book.

Deb & Tim's Engagement Session

Today Kathleen & I traveled up to Stonington & Mystic to photograph Deb & Tim for their engagement session. We started the day right on the shore in Stonington. The weather held out for us and we were welcomed with nice blue skies. After we spent a little time by the water, we went over to Olde Mystic Village to do some fun shots which included stopping at the laundry mat and chocolate store (where they gave us a ton of free chocolate!!) It was a great and laid back session and Deb & Tim were so much fun. Here are some of the photos from the day!
