Elena & Dan’s eSession – Walden Pond

I remember reading Walden in high school, and really liking it.  Ever since I moved out to the Boston area, and realized how close I was to Walden Pond, I’ve been dying to go there.  I have this little fantasy that I’ll go one day and walk around the pond and then sit on a blanket and read the book…  but that hasn’t happened yet and probably won’t happen anytime soon.  I did, however, go to Walden recently for Elena & Dan’s engagement session.  I was totally excited to see it finally, and was equally excited to meet Dan and see Elena again!  We met up just before sunset and had a chance to walk around the pond a bit, and spend some time letting them get used to me and my Nikon :)

This one is my FAVORITE!

Elena & Dan – it was great hanging out with you two and getting to know you both a little better!  I’m really looking forward to the wedding next weekend – it’s going to be beautiful!  Enjoy the last week of your engagement and I’ll see you soooon!  :)

It’s all worth it!

Do you ever get so stressed over the mounds of work piling up on your desk? Do you ever feel like you’ll never get it all done? I do, all the time – especially this summer! My photography business is finally taking off here in Boston, and I’ve got lots of work (this is a GOOD thing). Plus, I’m still working part-time for Matt & Enna Grazier – so I’m pretty much up to my eyes in work these days.

With all of that going on, it’s been easy to get frustrated and feel like I’m not making my clients happy. I want to turn things around so much faster than I can right now! But, yesterday was a great day! Not because I got so much done (though I was fairly productive), but because I heard from 2 of my favorite couples!

Maria & Paul’s images were released on Pictage this week, and I got their slideshow finished and up online on Friday. Maria emailed me back with this…

Hi Krista, I have no words to describe how much I love the photos. You captured so many wonderful moments. I can not stop looking at them. Thank you so much for all your beautiful work! It will be so difficult choosing the photos for the book… :)

THEN, I was hanging out with my sister and the kids, and I got a text message from Mark & Courtney who’s wedding album was just completed and delivered this week…

Hey K. Got the wedding book, its frekkin amazing! U’r an artist of note! Tks so much Love M & C

Yay!! That’s what I live to hear! I LOVE being able to take photos that bring people that much joy! What could be better?? I love my job (busy and all :)!
