just when i think i cannot love autumn any more...

i just love this season... as we wind down and enter into the Christmas season, i thought i would share some of my favorites from this fall.

i have been working on a series for a couple of years now which depicts one tree through all four seasons. since i started, the first fall was extra dry and lacking in color, and last fall i was busy getting married, but i have been waiting for the perfect fall depiction of this tree. i am not sure if i am ready to declare my goal achieved but i was pretty darn happy with the pictures from this season.





and of course i have to include the work of my talented husband...



enjoy what is left of the harvest season!

paul and suzy - engagement session

some pictures from our session with paul and suzy two days before their wedding...

same moment from the camera of chris...
from my camera...





grace and peace friends

paul and suzy

this post is way overdue... and that is officially the understatement of the year.

paul and suzy got married this past july on a bright new hampshire day. they are officially the first couple to ever book a whitneykate.photography wedding and they are getting ready to celebrate four months of marriage. paul is my husband's former youth pastor and when he and suzy started dating, their community was quite excited to see such a beautiful match... i could go on but i will just let you take in the images.

suzy's bridal portraits are some of my favorite yet... gorgeous!

sealed with a kiss!






paul and suzy - thank you for allowing us to take part in your special day and for believing in us to capture your wedding... i cannot apologize enough for the gigantic delay in this posting - 2,253 photographs later, the disc is on its way!

and i must express admiration for my wonderful husband who worked so hard and produced some quality images for paul and suzy and who has been supportive through the editing process - thank you punkin!

autumn moon

every day chris and i have quite the routine as he is out the door and at work by 6:30am... the other morning i had to interrupt the rest of my routine to get a picture of the sky - it was incredible...


in the midst of a season of high stress and mounds on my plate... it was a moment of stillness... a holy moment for me personally...

just wanted to share... grace and peace

post-it love

i know... it has been too long since my last post... work is crazy and i am furiously editing in my off hours... this video offered enjoyment in the midst of a break today and i thought i would share...



grace and peace,

whit
