Kristi + Joe's Love Shoot

In the early spring, we had a fantastically fun engagement shoot up in Killington Ski Resort in Vermont, with our fabulous couple Kristi & Joe. Kristi & Joe are high school sweethearts, avid snowboarders, and have a cute little cabin in Vermont where they get away almost every weekend during the winter. Paul is a good skier, but I've only skied a few times in my life, so he ended up shooting the action shots up on the mountain. I was going to try to ski while we were there, but it was incredibly cold and windy- the kind of wind that takes your breath away. So, I thought it might be best not to kill my unexperienced self. Lucky for me, our good photographer friends Jacklyn & Chris happened to be at Killington for the weekend also, so I spent a couple hours hangin' with them in the lodge while Paul, Kristi and Joe were off taking AWESOME action fotos!!

Paul & I had such an amazing time fotographing and just hanging out with Kristi & Joe. They are such down to earth, awesome people, and we are very much looking forward to their wedding in October.

We were going to set their slideshow to the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's Walkin' in the Sunshine, but had a hard time finding the song. We watched Juno a couple nights ago, and heard this very adorable song by Barry Louis Polisar on the sountrack that reminded us of Kristi & Joe's playful spirt with each other. We thought it fit them perfectly, so enjoy!!

On the way back to the cabin, we found a cool, covered bridge to shoot in. We set up the car's headlights to backlight this awesome shot!!!

You guys are the best - and this proves we made the right choice in asking that you photograph our wedding. Kristi and I could not be happier with what you have done for us. These pictures are amazing and you have documented an awesome time in our life. Thank you - even if the song is not what we were expecting...it fits us perfectly. We cannot wait for the fun to be had in October.
Best, Kristi and Joe

Thank you to everyone for the awesome comments!!

Kristi & Joe, we are so much looking forward to spending more time with you guys!!! Also, we had a great time in Killington with you---thank you both for being so adventurous and for being such good sports in the cold. We know you both were probably freezing in some of the shots we did, but the warmth of your love for one another is what really shines through in your photos!!! All our best, Krystal & Paul
