Dreams may come True – post #100!

12 Aug

Written by Chelsea Gray / August 12 2010

Now that our engagement session based on "The Notebook" has received quite a lot of praise from the blogging community, (thanks to greenweddingshoes.com) I thought I'd google around and check out what people were saying (and

most importantly to check if proper photography credit was given!). Well I'm new to all of this, blogging- pingbacks, tweets, I'm really not on the absolutely-obsessed crazy train of wedding blog scouting BUT I am a gal and I like to see pretty things so I do indulge ever so often on a few of my favourite stylish blogs like Style Me Pretty.  Well tonight, while perusing a few sites to read the feedback (mostly positive (yay!) and a couple negative (weirded out by some of the sexier shots (boo!) I realized that one of my dreams had come true.

In May, Elizabeth (my trusty photographic partner in crime) sent me a link to a post about an engagement shoot based on the movie UP. I thought that it was insanely cute and although I hadn'

;t yet seen the film, I fell in love with the visuals and design-savvy and I could only imagine how amazing the actual movie was. Liz and I decided then and there that we would forever encourage our clients to think outside of the box and go for the most creative way possible to showcase their love in their e-sessions.  When it came time for Jean-Nicola and Cindy to choose their location for an e-session, I sent them a couple links (including the UP shoot) and they came up with the Notebook idea immediately. Thanks to their original idea and our photographs, we're now featured on several blogs alongside the very shoot that inspired us in the first place! That is what I call a dream materialized...

Laurie & Josh

Wedding / Photographed by Chelsea Gray & Roberto Ugarte / Grand Isle, Vermont / Saturday, July 31st 2010

When Laurie and Josh approached me about their country wedding in Vermont, I couldn't help but get excited because it had all the makings of a crazy adventure: Camp-like accommodations, fresh country air, wholesome food and family fun, and Laurie's mother promised me that most likely by 2am, everyone

would be jumping into the water...well sign me up, already!

Rob and I had a great time hanging out around the beautiful Grand Isle Lake House, as the guests ran around in their bathrobes, and got ready for the big day. I must admit, there couldn't have been a more mellow wedding than this one...my favourite kind:)
