<title>Wedding Engagement Portrait Sessions</title>
<link>http://www.sarahdicicco.com/blog/category/engagements/</link>
<description>Many of our Brides and Grooms request engagement sessions before the wedding to send announcements to the newspapers, or to include with save the dates. It is always nice to photograph a couple before the wedding and get to know each other just a little bit more. Many times we are already booked for someone&#39;s wedding date but they request for us to take their engagement photos anyway.</description>

Because this is a sacred spot to me, a true haven, I do not offer it up often. Only a mile away is a quant orchard for us to play! The owner was more than inviting and offered us his 1948 truck to use as a prop. The light was dreamlike and Sara &amp; Steve were beyond cute!&amp;nbsp;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sarahdicicco.com/clients/102111SARASTEVE/.pl&quot;&gt;Click here to view the entire slideshow&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;click here to view more images.

<title>One Hot Summer</title>
<link>http://www.sarahdicicco.com/blog/comments/116/</link>
<description>To say that this summer has been hot would be an understatement! However it makes those perfect summer days so much more enjoyable. While Tony and I were at the beach this past weekend to photograph a wedding, we did some engagement portraits of Brynne and Ryan. So cute!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/sitePub/library/engagements/brynne.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;New Jersey Photographer, Philadelphia Photographer, San Diego Photographer&quot; border=&quot;0px&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/sitePub/library/engagements/brynne02.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;New Jersey Photographer, Destination Wedding Photographer, Town and Country Photographer&quot; border=&quot;0px&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

Tony and I just returned from their breathtaking wedding in St John. I am so excited to share their wedding images with you, but first I wanted to share their engagement portraits. Carla &amp; Damien traveled from Minneapolis to Manhattan&amp;nbsp;for their portraits. Being in NYC on a cold winter day&amp;nbsp;has such a feeling that you can&#39;t help but capture it with the emotional &amp; sexy style of the couple.

<title>Super Sexy Photo Shoot</title>
<link>http://www.sarahdicicco.com/blog/comments/41/</link>
<description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia; font-size: 13px; &quot;&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNoteLevel1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0in; text-indent: 0in; &quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.sarahdicicco.com/sitePub/library/portraits/Super Sexy Photo Shoot.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Super Sexy Photo Shoot&quot; border=&quot;0px&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNoteLevel1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0in; text-indent: 0in; &quot;&gt;This fall we will be photographing Alyssa &amp; Josh&apos;s wedding in upstate NY. With both Alyssa and Josh being actors, you can say camera shyness was never an issue.  I am totally in LOVE with these images! With wardrobe packed into a suitcase, we headed for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.paradisecovemalibu.com/beachcafe/index.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Paradise Cove Beach&quot;&gt;beach at Paradise Cove&lt;/a&gt;, in fabulous Malibu. The trip was not all work, after the shoot we enjoyed oysters (my girlfriend Farrah taught me that you only have oysters in months that have the letter “r&quot; in them) and cocktails on the beach. Josh also taught me a little trick that I will be using a lot in the future. To avoid squinting in photographs, close your eyes and face the sun like you are tanning, for 30 seconds. This lets your eyes adjust, without watering or squinting afterwards. Alyssa is finishing a role as a brunette, and once it is a wrap, she will return to the life of a blonde!&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Symbol; &quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; &quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; &quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNoteLevel1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0in; text-indent: 0in; &quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Symbol; &quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal &#39;Times New Roman&#39;; &quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt; &quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia; &quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.joshheine.com/index.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Josh Heine actor&quot;&gt;Josh recently had the lead&lt;/a&gt; in a Disney pilot called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.slidellsentry.com/articles/2008/04/02/news/doc47ed12420d41f419866307.txt&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Disney TV Pilot&quot;&gt;&quot;Sunday Sunday Sunday,&quot;&lt;/a&gt; which would have aired on the Disney channel but didn&#39;t get picked up by the network. Josh has also appeared on &quot;Criminal Intent&quot; and starred on &quot;Without a Trace&quot; in last year&#39;s Christmas episode as the Guest Lead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNoteLevel1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 0in; text-indent: 0in; &quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; Alyssa is finishing up filming an independent feature film called &lt;a href=&quot;http://acornpictures.com/about.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;The Fall of 1980 independent film&quot;&gt;&quot;The Fall of 1980,&quot;&lt;/a&gt; in which Alyssa is starring as one of the lead roles. Alyssa also appeared on &quot;Trial by Jury&quot; and again as a Guest Star on FOX&apos;s show called &quot;The Jury,&quot;, as well as &quot;Guiding Light,&quot;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNoteLevel2&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia; &quot;&gt;Both Alyssa &amp; Josh have been Guest Stars on &quot;Law and Order&quot; and have preformed in theatre.

&lt;P&gt;This past October I had one day &amp; two wonderful couples to photograph! Both couples, Leah &amp; Josh and Julie &amp; Joe, are extremely wonderful clients who are more like friends! When picking days to meet it could not have worked out more perfectly to get together the same day! In the morning, Tony &amp; I met up with Julie &amp; Joe at the&amp;nbsp;&lt;A title=wonderland-pier-ocean-city-new-jersey-nj href=&quot;http://www.gillians.com/&quot; target=_blank&gt;Wonderland Pier&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;with their not so tiny puppy &quot;Dory&quot;! We had arrived way before the park had opened &amp; Brian (one of the managers) not only gave us free rein of the park, but also operated any rides we wanted! We really had a great time running around like we were in high school again!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; For Lunch, Tony and I had met up with my sister Emily and my&amp;nbsp;nephew&amp;nbsp;Maddox (19 months). We took a nice&amp;nbsp;walk on the Boardwalk , then stopped at Mack &amp; Manco&#39;s for pizza. After lunch we went down to the beach and played &quot;ring around the rosy&quot;, one of Maddox&#39;s favorites.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Leah &amp; Josh joined us in the afternoon. After running around Wonderland Pier and taking pictures in the photo-booth, we had a quick change of clothing and then headed to the second location. Leah introduced me to my new favorite location, the Margate Pier! Not only were we running against time, but we were loosing light fast! Once we made it onto the beach, time stood still! The lighting was stunning! With Leah&#39;s red hair and the glowing of the sunset it looked like a vintage movie set. They were even willing to go into the cold October Jersey Ocean &amp; I was not far to follow!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Ahhhh, if all days could be filled with laughter, sunny beaches and couples madly in love!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;</description>
