Kristine Pringle Blog     About Kris
    Hi there! Welcome to my blog. Other than photography, writing has always been a passion of mine. I regularly keep a journal, I'm known for my extra long emails, and yes, I even wrote a dissertation. Go Penn State! So, as Pringle Photography began to grow, it seemed only natural to retire the paper journal and begin this online adventure. I will use this site for posting pictures and stories from weddings and other photo shoots, and also for sharing personal pictures of the people and places we love. To our super cool clients, Scott and I are truly honored that you chose us to capture your memories. We hope that you enjoy the sneak peek of your photos. To our prospective clients, hopefully this will give you a little taste of what it’s like to work with us, and the kind of images you can expect. Thanks for stopping by! ~Kristine **PS - to view exclusively weddings, engagement sessions, or lifestyle photography, use the "categories" link above.
 
Kylie & Bryan's Wedding
10.06.09
 
On September 12th, Scott and I photographed Kylie and Bryan's beautiful vineyard wedding and tented reception. It was an outdoor ceremony -- with the most incredible view -- and luckily it rained only long enough for us to get some amazing umbrella shots. They just added to the scenery and to the story of their day. Enjoy!

More and more brides are choosing to wear flip flops these days. As a flip flop girl myself, I'm loving it.

The totally stunning Kylie. It was dry for her pre-ceremony portraits...

But by the time we got to Bryan at the vineyard, the rain had started. As laid back as can be, he didn't mind being in it one bit.


And we were excited that we could get some shots of the grapes with water droplets all over them. I may have to use these in my dining room by the wine rack!


As I mentioned above, the rain also meant some amazing umbrella images. I love this one...


And I heart this one too. Look at that view!


The ceremony was beautiful...


And unique too! I know that brides-to-be read my blog to get ideas, so here's a great one. Instead of a unity candle, Kylie and Bryan mixed two different wines and shared a sip from the same glass. Perfect for a vineyard wedding!


Okay, so maybe it was more than a sip. Bryan made everyone laugh when he decided to finish the whole glass. Hehe. I'm so glad Scott was able to sneak around to get these great images from the front.


After the ceremony, it was portrait time. The rain had ended and left us with gorgeous moody light.


There were so many cool spots for landscape-style portraits at the vineyard, including the ceremony chairs themselves...


But we definitely did a bunch of close-ups too. Love this one I got shooting through the vines.


They had a super fun wedding party -- and this pregnant photographer was in good company since there were also a few pregnant bridesmaids. Girls, I wish you all the best with your little ones on the way! :-)


Kylie and Bryan had a horse-drawn wagon take the entire wedding party to the reception, and of all the images we got, I just love this one. Probably because it's a totally candid shot of them having a great time-- I took it through our windshield as we were following them in our car. That blurred stuff in the foreground is our dashboard.


They had a super sweet first dance.


And then an awesome wedding party dance. Instead of the typical slow song, the entire wedding party did the Cha-Cha Slide.


There was some loving cake-smashing...


A hilarious removal of the garter...


And lots of dancing. Kylie and Bryan, thanks so much for asking us to document your big day. We are so happy for you both. Congratulations again! Hugs! ~Kris & Scott

Amanda   |   10.07.09   |   Wow! Beautiful. First, I heart the wine ceremony - of course. Great unique idea. My favs are the aisle shot with the umbrellas with the stunning backdrop and the "moody light" one. Both would make awesome large scale canvases.
 
 
 
Jaime & Jason's Wedding Celebration
10.01.09
 
I have been working with Jaime and Jason for awhile now -- since February actually. They have such a beautiful story, so I'm going to share it the best way I know how -- with pictures. Enjoy!

If you read my blog regularly, you may recognize Jaime & Jason.
Charlottesville Virginia Wedding Photography


I photographed their beautiful and intimate wedding ceremony this past winter.

It was February, and it was COLD outside.

But that didn't stop them from glowing...

After all, they had just tied the knot -- AND they were blessed with the news that they were expecting a baby boy at the end of June.
Charlottesville Wedding Photographers


I photographed baby Grant when he was just 7 days old...


And he is so perfect in every way.


He is also the ultimate Steeler fan, which makes his parents really happy!


Fast forward 2 more months, and it was time for Jaime and Jason's wedding celebration. This time around, Jaime chose an awesome red dress and she looked amazing. I can't believe she had a baby just 2 months earlier.


They had rented a big party bus, so Scott and I rode around with their super fun wedding party and found some cool spots for photos...


Like this covered bridge. This is very Lancaster, so it was a perfect choice.


And as an added bonus, it was a great spot for some silhouettes.


Then we arrived at Riverdale for the reception. I have nothing else to say except this place is gorgeous!


The reception was held inside of the barn, and it looked amazing too.


During the cocktail hour, we did a few more photos of the wedding party. I love this one of the girls in front of the farm house...


And I love this one of the guys, ummm, "hugging". Just kidding guys, although I think I may have said, "Hug or huddle" and I'm so happy with how it turned out.


Jaime and Jason have the nicest parents, so I had to give them some blog love.


Reception time. J & J started with their first dance. Beautiful!


And then there were some hilarious toasts. What a priceless moment shared between friends.


Scott snagged this great image of Jason looking a little embarassed at the story his best man was telling...


And then I remembered what a cool head table they had, so I stepped back far away to get everyone in the frame, hoping they would give me EXACTLY this. Everyone smiling, glasses in the air, looking at the bride and groom. It almost looks staged. You rock wedding party!


This one pretty much sums it up. Jaime and Jason had fun on the dance floor.


And so did all of their guests. The evening was definitely a wonderful way to celebrate the beginning of their marriage. To Jaime and Jason, it has been so fun working together over the past 6 months. Thank you for everything, and congratulations on your marriage and on becoming parents to baby Grant. You are all very blessed! Lots of love! ~Kristine & Scott

Renee & Johnathan's Wedding
09.21.09
 
On Saturday August 8th, Scott and I photographed Renee and Johnathan's wedding. The ceremony took place at Holy Name of Jesus Church and a great reception followed at The Colonial Country Club. Renee and Johnathan have an adorable almost 2-year old son named Noah, and I'm so happy we were able to do some fun family pictures with him. I love weddings and lifestyle photography, so this day was the best of both worlds! Ok - enough rambling. Onto the preview of pics!

The dress...beautiful!


The shoes...gorgeous!


The bride...stunning!


And we can't forget the handsome groom.


Here is little Noah getting ready for Mommy and Daddy's special day. I love it -- the little black socks just get me!


One little peek at the ceremony....


And then it was time for portraits. We had beautiful light at the country club.


I love how this one with the clock turned out.


Johnathan works at the fire department, so of course we had to do some with the truck! So fun!


My favorites, though, are the ones we did with Noah. Doesn't get much sweeter.


Reception time. For the first dance, Renee and Johnathan started out by themselves...


And then Noah joined them and they finished their dance as a family. I was definitely tearing up behind my camera!


The little flower girl couldn't wait for her turn on the dance floor!


As I mentioned above, it was such a fun reception. There were some hilarious toasts...


And there was an anniversary dance, which is one of my favorite wedding traditions. It's such an awesome way to get beautiful candids of your grandparents or another couple who has been married for 50+ years.


There was some great bouquet tossing action...


And a Polka dance in which Johnathan (on the left in the white vest) had to break into a very difficult circle. I love that Renee is dancing with her Dad in this shot.


Gotta love this one! Everyone forgets the photographer is there late in the evening. ;-)


To Renee and Johnathan, thank you for asking us to document the beginning of your married life together, and for being so nice to work with. Noah is a lucky little boy to have you both for parents. Congratulations to you all! With love and appreciation ~Kristine & Scott

Amanda   |   09.22.09   |   Cute. My favorite is the one with the clock.
Renee   |   09.22.09   |   They look amazing. My favorite is the last one of us swinging Noah. His smile is precious. I am so excited to see the rest of them. Thanks again for helping us capture the memories of this special day.
 
 
 
Jenelle & Jer's Wedding
09.14.09
 
On Sunday August 2nd, Scott and I photographed Jenelle & Jer's wedding at the beautiful Riverdale Manor in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. You may remember Jenelle & Jer from their awesome engagement session that we did in the home that they are renovating. Well, these two have been so busy with that project that I'm amazed that they found the time to pull off such a fabulous wedding. And not just a fabulous wedding, but one in which they designed and made many of the little details THEMSELVES. The day was all about Apple Green -- the colors were Black & Apple Green -- and it was so completely classy and coherent.

I was in love with Jenelle's green Vaneli shoes!
Charlottesville Photographers


And her green and white bouquet, which she made herself! Jenelle, you are just gorgeous -- and you are my new crafty idol!
Charlottesville Photographers


I'm pretty sure they made Jer's green flower too...
Charlottesville Photographers


And they definitely made these awesome programs. I love photographing details, so I was in heaven.
Charlottesville Wedding Photographers


Ceremony time. It was August, so each chair had a green fan laying on it.
Charlottesville Wedding Photographers


Rather than show the typical straight-on standing at the altar shots, I thought I would show some different angles this time. What a beautiful spot for a ceremony!
Charlottesville Wedding Photographers


This is one of Scott's images, and I absolutely love it! Is Jenelle glowing or what?!?!


As if walking down the aisle with your new husband isn't an emotional enough experience, Jenelle's Mom suprised her with a jazz trio that played the Beatles song, "All You Need is Love".


And this was her reaction. To Jenelle's Mom, this image is for you. Nice work creating a really special memory for Jenelle and Jer!


After the ceremony, we did a bunch of portraits with their wedding party...


And of Jenelle and Jer alone. Love it!


Then it was time to party!


How bout them apples!


Jenelle's sister made the cake. She had never made a wedding cake before, so apparently craftiness runs in the family.


The table numbers were random numbers, but ones with significance to Jenelle and Jer, like the seating capacity at Beaver Stadium. So cool!


And just in case they hadn't made enough, they decided to make their own Green Apple Riesling and labels. I was so impressed!


The first dance. These two took dance lessons and had fun showing off their fancy footwork.


Love this shot of Jenelle and some of her girlfriends. I think we took a similar picture at Kelly's wedding (on the far left) last
December. Apparently this is a signature dance move. Too cute!


So sweet.


The dance floor was packed...


And Jenelle and Jer literally closed it down. This is one of my faves. What can we say guys? You are the best and we had so much fun photographing your wedding. The details and color choices were amazing, so much so that I'm designing our new guest bedrooom after your wedding! :-) Thanks for everything, and congratulations again! So happy for you both! With love ~Kris & Scott

Amanda   |   09.15.09   |   Wow! So many favorites. Love the rings on the apples. Love the last one of them doing the "last dance." Love Scott's shot with her glowing. AND would love the drink the Green Apple Reisling. :)
Jenelle and Jer   |   09.15.09   |   What can we say? Thank you again for doing such a fantastic job in capturing our day. We couldn't be happier!
Tori   |   09.15.09   |   Beautiful! The one of Sis's reaction to the trio... it made me tear just a tad. Thanks guys!
 
 
 
Hannah & Dan's Wedding
09.09.09
 
On Saturday August 1st, I photographed the beautiful wedding of Hannah and Dan. The ceremony was held at Rooke Chapel on the campus of Bucknell University and an awesome reception followed at The Lewisburg Hotel. We had perfect summer weather for outdoor pictures, but we also got some great indoor shots -- like in the Chapel and also in the campus GYM! As in the weight room. Enjoy!

Hannah was a gorgeous bride! She was extremely calm and ready to see her groom...
Charlottesville Wedding Photography


And Dan was definitely ready to see his bride. Hannah and Dan are the nicest and most fun couple, as you will see in the pictures to come.
Charlottesville Wedding Photography


A few details...what amazing flowers! Loved them!
Charlottesville Wedding Photographer


Ceremony time. I love this image of Hannah's Dad walking her down the aisle.


Dan got a little emotional during his vows, and it was so sweet when Hannah touched his cheek and wiped away a tear.


A lighter moment. Dan struggles to get his ring on. Too funny!


And they're married! This image was totally impromptu after they signed the marriage license and it makes me smile. They're so perfect together.


Right after the ceremony, we did a group photo in front of Rooke Chapel. Could they have asked for a better day or bluer skies?


Then we did a few inside the Chapel. Here we're on the balcony.


And here we are again. Same window, just exposed for differently.


Hannah and Dan met while lifting weights in the gym at Bucknell. So obviously we had to go have some fun in there. I believe this is the machine Hannah was using, and apparently Dan went over to help her because she was lifting "way too much weight". So cute.


Such a fun wedding party!


Then it was time for some images of Hannah and Dan alone around campus. Beautiful!


Such a cute couple!


The reception was at The Lewisburg Hotel. This is another image that makes me smile - I love that Dan is holding the bouquet.


A few reception details. The cake was breathtaking, and the centerpieces were so classy and unique. Each table had a different glass teapot filled with fresh flowers.


Love this moment during their first dance.


And I love this one of the packed dance floor. I'm pretty sure this is "Shout".


Hannah and Dan were out there most of the night together, which made me a really happy photographer.


How could I not end with this one?!?! Hannah and Dan, thank you for asking me to document your wedding day and for being so easy and FUN to work with! I hope you and your families and friends like the little preview of images and I can't wait for you to see the rest! With love and appreciation ~Kristine

Shelli Casner   |   09.10.09   |   What a beautiful bride and handsome groom. I am so sorry I had to miss this important day. I was thinking about both of you though. Looks like you had a great time. Love the picks. She is an awesome photographer. Congrats. Now it is time for some babies :-)

Grandma L.   |   09.14.09   |   What a wonderful job of capturing the devil in Hanna and Dan's eyes. The pictures put a new tear in my eyes and a catch in my throat as I looked at them and read the captures to grandpa. Love them both.
Hannah   |   09.14.09   |   Kristine, these photos are more than I could have asked for or even imagined! They are so beautiful and you've captured the emotion and feeling that I am so fond of from that whole day! The picture with my father made me cry and the weight room shots had me laughing! I can't wait to see the rest of them! Thank you so much!! :)
Kristine Pringle   |   09.15.09   |   Thank you so much everyone! I'm so happy everyone likes them. To Hannah, you are so welcome. Thank YOU for the super sweet blog comment and for the very thoughtful thank you note you and Dan sent in the mail. Made my day!
 
 
 
Nicole and Kris's Wedding
07.22.09
 
On Saturday June 20th, Scott and I photographed an amazing destination wedding -- for Nicole and Kris in New York's beautiful Finger Lakes region. Both the ceremony and reception took place at Esperanza Mansion overlooking Keuka Lake, and everything was truly breathtaking.

As I mentioned in the previous blog post of their rehearsal dinner, Nicole and Kris just returned from a 3-week honeymoon in Australia, so I waited until they were home to do their blogs. I have been so excited to share these images, and I know that everyone (especially the newlyweds!) has been so excited to see them. So without further adieu, here is a little taste of what we captured on that awesome day last month...

I started my day with Nicole as she was getting ready in the bridal suite at the mansion. I was loving the mirrors they had in there. They allowed me to get some creative angles like this one...


And to shoot unobtrusively when it really mattered, like here.


Nicole was soooooooo stunning!


As were all the ladies! I LOVED the color of their dresses.


One of my favorite shots of the guys...just hanging out at the bar. It was another really well placed mirror on Esperanza's part. :-)


Onto the ceremony. Scott stood outside in the rain to get these shots...


And he let me stay dry inside the tent. Nicole and Kris recited their vows...


They exchanged rings...


And then everyone applauded as they were introduced for the first time as husband and wife.


After the ceremony, it was time for portraits. What do you do when it's raining and you want outdoor pictures? Find cover! Thanks to Scott and all the groomsmen for moving patio furniture so we could get this shot.


We took a quick drive to Keuka College, Nicole's alma mater, and they were such troopers for walking through the rain with no umbrella! 'Anything for good pictures' is just one reason why I love our couples.


Upon returning to the mansion, we did a few more portraits high above the lake.


Gorgeous! The couple, and the view!


Reception time. For the first dance, I used a wide-angle lens to get the entire room...


And Scott worked his magic with a telephoto lens. If you look at the previous image again, you will see that this one is the EXACT same moment. Gotta love when a bride and groom kiss on the dance floor!


Nicole and Kris had one of the most beautiful wedding cakes I'd ever seen. It was perfect for a wine country wedding, and the colors were amazing!


Another one to show off the cake, with the happy couple blurred in the background. Fun!


Then it was time to get down! Literally! I love a bride who can tear up the dance floor on her wedding day. Yep, Nicole pretty much rocks!


Everyone had such a great time, and it definitely shows in these pictures.


Couldn't leave out a sweet moment. I love this image of Nicole's parents with Nicole and Kris in the background.


And to include a funny moment, Kris made everyone laugh when he put on his "Night Blaster" to take off Nicole's garter.


Nicole and Kris, how do we begin to thank you for making us feel like old friends, and for sending us such a sweet thank you card before you even left for your honeymoon!?!?!! We had a fabulous time spending the weekend with you and your families and friends, and we wish you every happiness as you start your lives together as husband and wife. Congratulations again! With love and appreciation ~Kristine and Scott

Amanda   |   07.22.09   |   Great shots. Looks like a fun wedding.You and Scott are so versatile: being able to take fantastic photos in any venue and weather.
Nicole   |   07.23.09   |   The pictures are absolutely beautiful. They are everything I could have asked for and more. I want to thank you and Scott for doing such a phenomenal job despite the rainy weather. Magnific!
janee   |   07.27.09   |   Congrats kris and nicole! Nice pics Scott and Kris! Everyone looked beautiful!!!
 
 
 
Nicole and Kris's Rehearsal Dinner Cruise
07.20.09
 
It has been 4 whole weeks since Scott and I photographed our first destination rehearsal dinner and wedding in the beautiful Finger Lakes, but I postponed blogging for good reason. Nicole and Kris honeymooned in Australia for almost a month (now that's a honeymoon!), and they emailed me to let me know they returned home on Friday. I wanted their blogs to be at the top of the page when they returned to the states, but I know everyone has been anxiously awaiting a sneak peek of the pictures. So at last -- here they are! I will be doing the rehearsal dinner blog today, and the wedding will follow in a day or two.

Nicole and Kris's rehearsal dinner took place on the Esperanza Rose, a fabulous dinner boat that cruises around Keuka Lake in Finger Lakes Wine Country. Love the reflection in this shot!


The ship set sail at 6:30 pm, so we had optimal outdoor light for photography combined with the incredible views of the water, vineyards, and mountains.


It was such a fun atmosphere. We loved capturing candids as everyone came on board and grabbed a cocktail. Here Kris laughs with some of his groomsmen...


And Nicole laughs with one of her bridesmaids. It's so priceless when we can catch a moment like this between a bride and one of her best friends.


Same moment, different photographer, different lens, different perspective. I love how Scott focused on Nicole here. Does this look like a happy woman about to get married or what!!! She has the most gorgeous smile!


After a lot of mingling, Kris's Dad gave a great welcome speech and toast.


And the images of the crowd's reaction are some of my favorites from the entire evening.


Now Nicole and Kris have great candid memories with not only their best friends, but also with each other.


Kris's Dad did a great job, and here Nicole's Dad jokes with him about having to keep working on his wedding speech for the following night.


Sweet. I had to squeeze this one in -- I just loved Nicole's grandma.


After dinner, we spent some time doing some portraits. This is Nicole's immediately family -- her parents Debbie and Ed, and her 2 beautiful sisters.


And this is Kris's immediate family. During portrait time with 2 photographers, I always get the straight on, more traditional looking at the camera shots, and Scott shoots from the side to get portraits like this. I call them "candid portraits", and I love how they turn out.


Of course I have to share just a few more of the bride and groom-to-be. While I was getting this shot of them at the front of the boat...


Scott captured some through the captain's window.


And we were all really excited when the captain said they could drive! Nicole and Kris, thank you for asking us to attend and photograph your rehearsal dinner. It was so much fun, and we are so happy that we could document this important part of your entire weekend. We hope you like these as much as we do, and we can't wait for you to see the wedding pics tomorrow or Wednesday! Hugs! ~Kristine and Scott

Lyndell   |   07.20.09   |   These are just wonderful! Again you do beautiful work but teh one of you looking through the window, the B/W one, of them looking out over the water is my favorite and just wonderful!!
Nicole   |   07.20.09   |   I love, love, love them. The two of you were able to capture great shots of a truly momentous evening. I am so glad that you were able to capture a great mix of posed and candid shots. We can't wait to see the wedding shots.
 
 
 
My Brother's Wedding
07.08.09
 
On June 27th, Scott and I photographed a VERY special wedding, for my brother Mark and his beautiful wife Jessica. An intimate ceremony and reception were held at The William Cox Inn in Charlottesville, Virginia, and we couldn't have asked for a better day. The Inn was absolutely incredible, and everyone was able to stay there because it is 10,000 square feet. We literally got lost inside! And the grounds, well, they were definitely a photographer's dream come true. I could have spent their entire reception doing photos! We also had gorgeous weather, and we spent our portrait time during "the golden hour" thanks to good planning by Mark and Jess!

To digress though, I have to share what an awesome story Mark and Jess have. Mark had been wanting to go to Costa Rica to surf for at least 10 years, and finally, 3 years ago, he went there with a few of his friends. Jessica, who lived in Minnesota at the time, happened to be in Costa Rica with some of her girlfriends during the exact same week. They met on day 2 of their vacation and spent the majority of their time together. The rest is pretty much history. How amazing that what started out as a long distance romance and lots of flights between Minnesota and Virginia has now turned into a lifetime together.

Jessica and Mark live in Richmond with their two adorable pups, Kaya and Kodi, and they were recently blessed with the exciting news that they are expecting a baby girl this October. Her name will be Vivienne, and we are all so excited to meet her! Wanting to get married before the baby arrived, Jess and Mark planned their wedding in just a few months, and every little detail turned out perfect. I cannot wait to share the moments, details, and portraits that we captured on that beautiful day. Enjoy!

I started the day with Jessica's gorgeous dress...


And some getting ready shots. The girls were so cute in their white bathrobes.


Mark was really calm and ready to see his beautiful bride.


Jess, you were so completely stunning! Beautiful inside and out, I am so proud to call you my new sister!


Pretty typical - I love letting brides peek at the pictures!


My brother was looking as handsome as I had ever seen him. Yep, he's got good looks and brains too - he designed our entire photography website and blog from scratch, as in no template, just 100% computer nerd coding! ;-)


Not only is he a talented web designer, he is also one of the funniest and nicest people you will ever meet, and he is definitely one of my best friends. Love you bro!


Thanks to my amazing husband for getting those great shots! We worked the wedding, but managed to get in some photos too!


Our daughter Elsa even got in on the action. She loved Uncle Mark's flower and almost broke it pre-ceremony.


Thankfully it stayed intact. I LOVE Jess's taste.


Her bouquet was awesome. Lillies are some of my favorites!


Onto the ceremony. Seriously, could you ask for a better view?!!


They had the beautiful mountains to the front, and the beautiful Inn behind them.


There were moments of sincerity...


And moments of laughter that I loved capturing.


After the ceremony, we did a bunch of portraits. A classic close-up...


A modern full-length shot...


And some with their little miracle in the making.


This one just gets me. Baby Vivienne is very blessed to have parents like Mark & Jess.


Ahhh, the sweet golden light appeared!


And Scott wins for my favorite portrait. I love this silhouette with the glowing wheat in the foreground!


We even managed to get one with Kodi & Kaya real quick.


And of course I had to show the bling!


Jess spent a lot of time daydreaming about what the dinner table would look like, and this is what she came up with - it belongs in a magazine! The reception was held in the gorgeous barn behind the Inn.


The centerpieces were Pottery Barn lanterns and silver pails of ivy, roses & lilies.


After an amazing dinner, Jess and Mark shared their first dance.


And then the parent dances took place. Jess and her Dad were so cute.


Our Mom made it 3/4 way through the song without crying, but we knew it was coming. I love this moment shared between 2 people I love so much.


After some toasts and cake cutting, it was party time!


The newlyweds had a blast showing off their moves...


Until the sheriff came to see what all the noise was about. After realizing it was a wedding though, he turned on his lights and let Mark & Jess pose with his car. I love this shot I snagged using high ISO and the lights from the siren. Flash would have ruined all those cool colors!


And a fun high ISO shot by Scott. The dance floor was packed all night, thanks to a great DJ and our really fun families and friends!


Mark & Jess, thanks for being such a great bro & sis! We love you both! Congratulations! Love, Kris & Scott

Kirk and Brenda Whiting   |   07.09.09   |   What a beautiful job you guys did! Wow! So many precious moments captured. I teared up (we both did but dont tell my husband...) at the shots of your Mom and Mark... My hubbie works with Mark, and your Mom was recently our realtor for selling and buying our home...and is now someone I would call "friend". Seeing her crying on Mark just did me in! You guys are AMAZING photographers!!!

Jen and Shane's Wedding
06.29.09
 
On Saturday June 13th, Scott and I photographed Jen and Shane's beautiful and fun wedding. The ceremony was held in Selinsgrove at Wesley United Methodist Church, and a big reception followed at Front Street Station in Northumberland. We couldn't have asked for better weather, or a more fun couple and wedding party! It was such a perfect day!

A perfect day, with another gorgeous Pringle Photography bride, as per usual. :-)


I loved all the different ways Jen incorporated her grandparents into the day. More to follow...


A quick glimpse into the ceremony. I love this moment as Jen put the ring on Shane's finger.


The first time a couple is introduced as the new Mr. and Mrs. is often one of my favorite photos of the day. Jen and Shane are totally glowing with happiness.


After the ceremony, we did a bunch of portraits at Susquehanna University. We had sweet light.


And a really fun wedding party who I could have taken pictures of all day. Jen and Shane, your friends rock!


They had an awesome Escalade to transport everyone to the reception, and we were loving the reflections we were getting.


To the groomsman who quickly stuck his hand out the window, thank you!!! It makes this reflection shot that much more perfect! I love it!


The grand entrance into Front Street Station. Jen and Shane were ready to party!


Front Street is such a cool place for a reception. The wedding party ate dinner and toasted in one of the railroad cars...


Which you can see in the background of this shot. Their cake was amazing!


And they were very sweet when feeding each other.


After the cake cutting, we went outside for some quick shots on the railroad tracks -- because you can't have a reception at Front Street without some railroad images!


Love it -- these two definitely knew how to have fun in front of the camera!


Once back inside, Jen presented a bouquet to her grandma, and then sat with her for a special song. So so sweet!


And then Jen and Shane shared their first dance.


I love this one of the newlyweds -- and I just adore those little girls in the background!!! The kids couldn't wait to dance themselves!


Speaking of, the kids are always the first ones out on the dance floor!


But it usually doesn't take long for the adults to get out there and get their groove on.


The dance floor was packed, and the lights on the ceiling were just screaming for some of Scott's "zoomer" shots. I love all the motion in these!


Jen and Shane, we had a blast photographing your wedding and we're so happy for you! Thank you so much for asking us to be there, and for being so easy and fun to work with! Hugs! ~Kristine & Scott

Natalie & Dave's Wedding
06.16.09
 
On Friday June 5th, Scott and I photographed Natalie and Dave's gorgeous Spyglass Winery wedding. The day started out with some rain, but luck was on our side, because the rain cleared out after the ceremony, so we were able to do outdoor pictures as planned. Natalie and Dave are still in London on their honeymoon (lucky!), but they told me they would have Internet access, so hopefully they'll be able to check this before they return home.

While Natalie was getting her hair and makeup done, I took a few pictures of her amazing dress -- and what a perfect spot for it to be hanging!


Natalie has the most beautiful blue eyes. I love this shot.


And this one of all the girls around the bride.


Totally totally stunning. You'd never know it was raining outside....we were under a covered deck.


Onto the ceremony. I loved how Natalie's cathedral length veil looked coming down the aisle.


Scott did some shooting from the side...


And as always, I had center aisle.


Woohoo! Dave was checking the doppler, and the rain had moved out!


So that meant lots of outdoor pictures at Spyglass. Their wedding party was a blast!


Love it! The scenery is awesome there.


And of course we had to use Natalie's veil for a romantic shot.


The first dance. The woman in the black dress behind them is Natalie's Mom.


A great moment taken at high ISO -- so fun!


There were some really funny toasts.


I absolutely love Dave's laugh in this one!


The dance floor was packed all night. The girls definitely had a good time...


And so did the guys!


And the newlyweds, well, they were dancing machines! They were together on the dance floor most of the night, which made us really happy.


This is one of my favorites. The moment is priceless, but it's even better because those are Dave's parents to the left. I love when I can intentionally shoot to include friends and family in the background.


Natalie and Dave, thank you so much for asking us to be there to document your day! We had a fantastic time! You and your families and friends are all so wonderful! We hope you are having an awesome honeymoon in London, and that you can see this before you return home! Talk soon! Hugs! ~Kris & Scott
