			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">So, I recently photographed an engagement session with Christy &amp; Nick.  They are getting married this May in Long Branch, NJ.  Yay for beach weddings!  I am actually going as a guest and can not wait!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I first met Christy years ago while working at a portrait studio in Marlton, NJ.  Christy is an awesome photographer and had come to the studio for an interview.  What an interview that was.  My good friend, Sandi, and I were feeling extra goofy that day and it made for a very memorable hour indeed.   There may have been singing and quite a bit of laughter.  Christy was hired instantly.  She fit right in and was the perfect addition to our small/ quirky group of photographers and friends.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, anyway&#8230;. Christy &amp; Nick&#8230; Nick &amp; Christy&#8230;.. where do I start??</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The best way that I can think to describe them is as flexible, goofy, athletic, sports nuts that both love the beach and are known to break out things like slip n&#8217; slide on a hot summer day or twister in the winter.  They are two people that clearly know how to get some fun out of life, laugh and induce laughter often.   Yep.  I think that accurately sums them up.  : )</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Needless to say, we had a blast during the portrait session.  I got to climb a tree which I try to make excuses to do as often as possible.  They got to play in the playground, do headstands, and dip their toes in the Cooper River.  Good times indeed.  Here are some favorites!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2968" title="1" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/16.jpg" alt="1" width="770" height="616" /></p>
<p>The little girl on the right in this photo was screaming, &#8220;EXCUSE ME!! EXCUSE ME!!&#8221;.  Apparently, adults hanging upside down and preparing to kiss in a playground do not take priority over the kids waiting their turn to use the handlebars appropriately.  Fair enough.  Haha!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3014" title="2" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/24.jpg" alt="2" width="770" height="513" /></p>
<p>This kid, on the other hand, was quite impressed with their feat&#8230;.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2970 aligncenter" title="3" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/33-513x770.jpg" alt="3" width="513" height="770" /></p>
<p>And, well, just to keep it interesting&#8230;.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3001" title="4" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/44.jpg" alt="4" width="770" height="451" /></p>
<p>Head or feet first?  These are big decisions.  <img src='http://melissahassey.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2981 aligncenter" title="14" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/141-608x770.jpg" alt="14" width="608" height="770" /></p>
<p>Schultz &amp; White&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2980 aligncenter" title="13" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/131-513x770.jpg" alt="13" width="513" height="770" /></p>
<p>Awwwwww&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2973 aligncenter" title="6" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/63-615x770.jpg" alt="6" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p>First they climbed the tree&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2974 aligncenter" title="7" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/72-615x770.jpg" alt="7" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2975" title="8" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/82.jpg" alt="8" width="770" height="513" /></p>
<p>It looked like fun&#8230;. so I decided to climb too&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2972 aligncenter" title="5" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/53-615x770.jpg" alt="5" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p>Game on!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2976" title="9" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/92.jpg" alt="9" width="770" height="632" /></p>
<p>Head over heels&#8230;.. buddum ching.  <img src='http://melissahassey.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2982" title="15" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/151.jpg" alt="15" width="770" height="616" /></p>
<p>Lastly, we headed over to the Cooper River&#8230;  People, please know, goose poop is worth cool pictures.  : )</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2985 aligncenter" title="18" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/18-615x770.jpg" alt="18" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2984 aligncenter" title="17" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/17-615x770.jpg" alt="17" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2977 aligncenter" title="10" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/101-615x770.jpg" alt="10" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2978 aligncenter" title="11" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/111-615x770.jpg" alt="11" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p>And a little yoga and meditation to end the day&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2983 aligncenter" title="16" src="http://melissahassey.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/161-615x770.jpg" alt="16" width="615" height="770" /></p>
<p>Namaste.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>so jon &amp; ross contacted me as they were in philadelphia visiting some family (yes&#8230;. over the holidays&#8230; i told you these posts are overdue!)  anyway, i am photographing their boston wedding this november and wanted to get to know them and do some engagement portraits as well.  both guys were so much fun and so natural in front of the camera!  ross is a ghost hunter.  i know&#8230; how cool is that??  they wanted to find a cemetery for some photos.  even cooler!  anyway, we went to Christ church/ cemetery in old city and found that it was closed!  it had been raining and apparently they sometimes close for this reason.  not letting that stop us we continued on and found a cemetary further south.  i had a great time with these two and can not wait for their wedding in november!!</p>
