Alex & Kristen Manabat

Recently I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Alex & Kristen (LaVigne) Manabet....truly an amazingly sweet couple. The Plattsburgh Memorial Chapel was a quaint backdrop for their short but intimate ceremony which filled up quickly with friends and family...Here are a few teaser images of their special day...enjoy!



Love this one...
Kristen has amazing eyes...

What a fun group of guys!!


You could never tell Kristen was a little shy of my "BIG" camera...absolutely stunning!


Alex was quite handsome as well...and was not camera shy!!

Thanks Alex & Kristen for allowing me to be part of your special day!!

Amber and Jason's Wedding Day!

This weekend Brett and I photographed the wedding of Amber and Jason.  What a great day!  The wedding and reception were at the Valcour Conference Center, which if you have tuned in to any of my previous bloggings, you'll know is one of my favorite places to shoot a wedding!  The weather teased us a bit, by raining for part of the ceremony, but then gave way to beautiful skies and a wonderful breeze for the rest of the afternoon and evening.  After the ceremony we captured some images at the lovely barn seen in the image above, and barn's lodger's were even compelled to come and congratulate the happy newleyweds:)

 

Afterward we got some fun, unique shots with the bridal party at a place on the Conference Center grounds that I have selfishly dubbed my "secret spot"!

Lastly, we sauntered over to the lake to capture some of the always stunning views that the venue boasts!

 

There is an extensive preview of images from Amber and Jason's wedding day on our website, which you can access directly by clicking here.  Thanks, and have a great day!

Amelia Blatchley's Newborn Images!

Yesterday, I wrapped up a newborn session for young Miss Amelia Blatchley.  She is a gorgeous little lady and I am happy to have been able to capture these images.  We broke the session up into two days.  Last week during my first crack it,  Amelia was a little fussy and decided she wanted to stay awake and active for our session.  Yesterday, however, she slept--well, like a baby!  I will be putting my finishing touches on Amelia's images soon, but I wanted to share a few for now.  To see a few more, not shown here on the blog, you can visit her preview gallery on the our site by clicking here.  Have a great day!

 

New HGL available!

Hi everyone!  Just wanted to let everyone know that the the May issue of the magazine that I shoot for "Northern  Home Garden & Leisure" is now available. You can learn more about HGL and how to receive it by clicking here.  I've also attached my cover images from this years previous issues as well:)

New Student Website!

I am proud to announce the launch of our new student centered

website:  http://www.students.silverliningphotovideo.com/   This site will be dedicated to the students that we photograph for proms, graduation, senior image sessions, and other school related events.  Some of the site's features are still in the development stage, but I figured that I may as well make it available while I am still tweaking things. 

Students and the important people in their lives can visit the site to view and order prints, stay with current with announcements, find links to other businesses that may be helpful in planning for upcoming events, such as proms and graduations, and more.  Be sure to check out the "Keepsake" gallery where we showcase some of the exciting new products we have developed for student's to display these images from a special time in their lives (a sample of our "Custom Double Wallet Box" can be viewed at the end of this post).  In addition to going directly to the site, by clicking the link above, the site can also be accessed from our splash page at:  http://www.silverliningphotovideo.com/  Thanks:)

Marie's Belly Shots!

A few weeks ago Brett and I did a maternity photo session for my good friends, Maria and Tim and their soon to be born daughter, Amelia.  The shoot went wonderfully.  We began by capturing some great images in the room that they have lovingly crafted for Amelia.   

Later, we took advantage of the beautiful day by shooting along the banks of the Saranac River and we eventually wrapped up our time together with some fun images on the shores of Lake Champlain.   In the weeks after our session Marie and Tim welcomed their beautiful Amelia into the world.  We look forward to having having spending some camera time with Amelia very in the next few days. 

Welcome Brett LeClair--New Silver Lining Photographer!
