HAMPTONS HAPPINESS : KELLI + BRIAN


It was a perfect evening.  The summer sun was warm but there was a slight breeze blowing through the air, making it a beautiful night for a walk in the Hamptons.  Kelli and Brian made their way down to a private beach in Montauk, a small surfer town at the very tip of Long Island, NY.   As the sun slipped behind the soft pink and blue clouds, Kelli and Brian reminisced about the very beginning of their relationship, almost two years ago.

It was New Years Eve in New York City and Kelli was out at M2 Ultra Lounge with her girls friends, ringing in the new year.  As midnight drew near, Kelli picked up her phone and dialed Brian, informing him that they would be going out on a date when she returned home to Tennessee. A small decision that would effect both of their lives greatly.  A few months went by, and in May, Brian called Kelli to take her up on that date.  Kelli's vivacious personality and total love for living life to the fullest quickly drew Brian in, and soon, they were an item.  What followed can only be described as a whirlwind romance.  These two compliment each other perfectly and have been enjoying one adventure after another ever since.

Last week I had the honor of photographing Kelli and Brian in the Hamptons.  Here are a few of my favorites!
We started off at the beautiful house where Kelli and Brian vacationed during their visit.

Kelli felt like a total princess as Brian helped her slip into her gold heels.

Kelli and Brian stopped at an adorable candy stand on the way to the beach for a sweet kiss.


Kelli, you really are SO beautiful.




Kelli and Brian are the type of people that just make fun happen.  They can bring life into any situation!

Kelli and Brian swore up and down that they had never modeled before, but I'm not sure I believe them!  You guys just look TOO GOOD! 


"Two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one." -John Keats





As the sun started to set, Kelli and Brian sat down to take in the beauty together.


I will end this post with a sweet embrace.  As the sun slipped below the horizon, Kelli and Brian breathed a sigh of happiness, soaking in the beauty that only comes at the end of the day.

  2. Great job on the photos of Kelli and Brian. I really like the B&W photo of Kelli looking at Brian, where Brian is out of focus. You captured Kelli's eyes and the intensity of her look. I really like the composition of the sunset photo where they are setting on the tree. Very interesting. Kelli is beautiful and you were able to show her beauty. Congrats!
