My nephew Charlie never stands still.

Really, never.

Shot at the lovely Perona Farms, Andover, New Jersey.

These photographs just make me happy.

Just a few quick frames from Caroline and Jeff's love the dress shoot in Montego Bay, Jamaica.

I got to spend lots of time with Caroline and Jeff at all of the pre-wedding shoots we did, so I was really excited when it finally came time to board the plane for their wedding at the Riu Montego Bay! What a fun wedding -- the weather held out perfectly despite the mid-afternoon storms that had been rolling through all week, and we had time to hit all of the great spots we had scouted for their portraits before the sun set over their cocktail hour on the beach.

HUGE thanks to my wonderful friend Melanie Litchfield of Whitebox Weddings who came all the way out to Jamaica to second shoot with me! Mel and I had a great time collaborating on shots -- it was such a treat to have her there!

So, without further ado...I'll kick it off with the dress:

Caroline's suite was so roomy and bright -- it made me wish I could shoot in Jamaica every day!

Even the closet was cool -- I took a bunch of shots in here....

LOVED the steel drummer band. And the simple, sweet ceremony setup left all of the focus as it should be -- on the bride and groom.

Can you feel that tropical wind blowing?

The colors at the Riu are perfect for shooting! We had great purple backdrops everywhere we looked.

Of course one of the coolest spots was this staircase behind one of the resort's kitchens in a totally off-limits area. The sweet spots are always hidden somewhere unexpected....

Love love LOVE this tree we found on the beach. These are some of my favorite bride & groom shots ever.

More purple!

The view from Caroline and Jeff's cocktail hour... The sunsets in Jamaica are amazing! It was like this every night we were there.

The perfect little candlelit path down the beach to their party.

Caroline + Jeff -- what a fun time! Thanks for being such great sports. Next up on the blog -- shots from C+J's Love the Dress session around the town of Montego Bay!
