Shiron & Rodney

Well after watching the De La Hoya / Mayweather fight Saturday night, a quick trip up to Connecticut to shoot Shiron and Rodney's engagement pictures is just what I needed. When they told me the story about how they met I had to laugh. Barber looking in mirror fixing own hair, Barber sees beautiful girl walk past shop window, Barber runs out of shop after girl, Barber meets resistance from girl and somehow Barber and girl are here years later taking engagement photos. That would never have worked for me.

We started the day in New Haven around Yale University. Before leaving New Haven we stopped for a bite to eat at Sandra's, where under wise advise I tried the "Sweet and Tangy Chicken," good stuff. Wow, the thought just made me hungry again. If you ever in the neighborhood you should give it a try.

From there we went to Bridgeport and hit Beardsley Park and Captain's Cove Seaport. The park is really cool, green grass, trees, water and "geese." Why did Rob put "geese" in quotations the way he did you may be asking yourself. Well I love geese, but just not around the grass I'm walking through, you can take it from there. Ok, back to my day. I could have easily taken a nap at the park ( if I weren't taking pictures, and there were no geese), and stuffed my face at the Seaport. Well enjoy the photos and slide show.
