Also a big thanks to the folks at the Fountains at Wallkill Golf Course for the great event that they put on!

The snow is gone (finally) and spring is returning to the Hudson Valley! We have been pretty busy around here getting ready for the 2009 wedding season and a myriad of other projects. One of the things we like to do at Quinnco Photography is to work with other businesses who provide services our clients may need. When it comes to weddings there are a whole host of vendors that prospective brides will meet with to discuss their special day. One of the ways for brides to find out more is to attend bridal shows and expos like the one we participated in last night at Colden Manor at Spruce Lodge in Coldenham. There was a great turnout and we had the pleasure of meeting a lot of bride-to-be’s and answer a lot of questions about wedding photography. We loved it! And we look forward to photographing our free mini-session winner Lenora! Thanks to everyone who came out last night, we look forward to speaking with you again soon!

From time to time we also have the opportunity to meet and work with other vendors, which we did just a few weeks ago. I had met with Bill from The Inn at Stony Creek a while back to discuss some trends that are happening in our industry with the recent downward slide of the economy. During our meeting we decided to try something that would make good use of both of our winter down times. In this industry it is essential to have a great working relationship with the vendors in our area, so we invited a few local people to collaborate and work on a bridal shoot at the inn. It’s always great to be able to get a chance to meet and work with other vendors in the area, and in turn help our clients find wonderful businesses to meet their wedding needs. We got a lot of work done, and had a great time working together.
Bill graciously allowed us to shoot at the Inn, and Nicole, a wonderful hair and make-up artist, worked her magic on our beautiful model to complete the look.
No bride would be complete without a beautiful bouquet and two of our local area florists, Floral Cottage of Chester and Antiques and Flowers in Warwick offered their talents for the shoot. All of the floral designs were very different from one another and truly illustrated themes ranging from traditional to contemporary. Working at the Inn at Stony Creek was fantastic! Bill gave us complete run of the place, and we took full advantage of the beautiful setting. Talk about a place with character! If you are looking for a great venue for your upcoming event, please check them out! The Inn is a perfect spot for an intimate wedding or just a nice weekend get away. Tell Bill I sent you!

So here are some shots from the day, I hope you like them! Feel free to drop a note!

And also a fun little video
We also had a great portrait session with Anna over in Newburgh. We had been trying to set something up for a while but the weather kept conspiring against us. But on Friday Anna braved the 35 degree cold (previous day was like 55 degrees) and we hit the waterfront some some fun stuff. Thanks Anna!

And here is a quick little video for Anna as well!
