Karen & Scott’s Red, White & Blue Wedding

The key to pulling off a beautiful themed wedding is subtlety. Karen & Scott planned their Independence Day wedding in perfect style! There were lovely red, white and blue touches throughout the day without taking over the entire room. Their first dance “Take My Breath Away” by Berlin (that’s right, from Top Gun) was a perfect nod to Scott’s Navy background. Scott and his groomsmen even pulled off a fabulous (if not entirely in tune) rendition of “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling.” It was a blast! Bride’s and groom’s to be, take some notes from this fun and classy themed wedding!

Stephanie & Brian’s Andover Wedding

When I first spoke with Stephanie about her wedding, she said she wanted an “easy, relaxed day.” No drama for this bride! And that’s exactly what she got. But it had nothing to do with me. Stephanie and Brian are just that…easy and relaxed. They were so sweet to each other and so fun! It was a beautiful day filled with family and friends celebrated by the light of a beautiful super moon.

Teddy & Sean’s Seaport Boston Wedding

I had the pleasure of working with Sean’s wonderful mom Debbie for all their wedding plans. Debbie obviously has great taste as she chose me as her photographer (he he he!) and my beloved Seaport as the property. It was obvious how excited Debbie was for her son and future daughter-in-law and how she wanted everything to be just perfect for them. But there is always an element of surprise when walking into a situation where you haven’t met your clients. And what a lovely surprise! From the second I walked into Teddy’s wedding suite, I felt welcome and comfortable. It’s obvious, Teddy is a beauty, which never hurts! But more importantly, Teddy and Sean were so comfortable with each other and so happy together. Some of Teddy’s family also flew in from overseas, which made for even more of a celebration. I was so honored to be a part of their special day.

Carol & Connor’s Boston Wedding

Carol and Connor met in a truly singular way…at the very romantic Newark airport. While waiting for their luggage, they realized they had the same green ribbon tied on the suitcase to make it stand out. They’ve saved that ribbon and it was pinned into Carol’s bouquet on their wedding day. And it was a beautiful day! The rain couldn’t touch Carol and Connor’s excitement. At times, I’d see Carol out of the corner of my eye just give a little shake or jump in excitement. It makes their first dance so appropriate…Overwhelmed. I love it!

Alyssa & Harold’s Endicott Estate Wedding

Alyssa & Harold are special to me! Alyssa is the sister of a good friend and I was so honored to be a part of their wedding day. I spent the day at Endicott Estate with them and I was so impressed by how calm and relaxed they both were. They were surrounded by family and friends and quite obviously were in their element. Yes, it was a rainy day. But the sun was shining over Alyssa & Harold!

Anna & Patrick’s Seaport Wedding

There is something about the Hahn & Kerrigan families. They have a way of making you feel like family within minutes. I was honored to be a part of Anna & Pat’s wedding day at Seaport (where I also feel like family!). But as Anna’s maid of honor eloquently said, Anna & Pat’s marriage was much bigger than the two of them. I truly witnessed a marriage of two families rather than two individuals. It was easy to see the Hahn’s and Kerrigan’s have decades of fun together before them! Congratulations to you all!!

Meredith & Ryan’s Spring Wedding at the Taj

The day with Meredith and Ryan was full of fun! And some surprises! We started getting ready at the Taj and I was so touched by the number of heirlooms Meredith and Ryan were able to incorporate into their attire. They had special accessories passed down from grandparents and great grandparents that included Meredith’s broach & purse and Ryan’s cufflinks and watch. What a lovely way to be reminded of your history as you look forward to your new future as husband and wife. We had a perfect time in the Public Garden (as crowded as it was!) and were able to return to the city streets after sunset. I was thrilled to hear Meredith and Ryan were not afraid to play in traffic with me! And in the middle of that traffic, we ran into some friendly and gracious Boston Fire Fighters who let us borrow their truck for some extra special images. Then it was time to whisk the two of them back to the Taj Rooftop Ballroom to dance the night away with one of my favorite bands, K2. It was such a blast!

Jennifer & Nader’s Classic Rooftop Wedding

I liked Jennifer & Nader as soon as I met them! They were absolute naturals in front of the camera during their engagement shoot and they were even more easy and fun at the wedding. Jennifer and Nader really wanted to celebrate their beloved Boston on their wedding day. I started with Jennifer getting ready at the Taj in Boston which is such a classic looking location. Perfect for my classic beauty of a bride! We headed to the ceremony in Medford where the sun streamed into the church’s stained glass windows and made everything dreamy. Wedding party photos were at the Public Garden for the perfect Boston backdrop. And finally, we all headed back to the Taj where the rooftop ballroom gave us a truly singular view of the city. It was the perfect location to celebrate their marriage!

Jocelyn & Nick’s Boston Engagement Session

Remember when you didn’t need eight layers to leave the house? We had the perfect weather for this Fall Engagement Session! Sigh. When thinking about an engagement session, I always tell my clients to choose a spot that is special for them. Find a location that will speak to their relationship and personalities. Jocelyn and Nick love the city! And we had a blast wandering around. We started with a drink at the bar in the Omni Parker Hotel. The Omni Parker Hotel also happens to be the location of their wedding reception, so it was extra special. The large windows and dark wood were perfect for a shoot. It was cozy, comfortable and romantic! We finished by taking a walk in the Public Garden. Jocelyn & Nick are true naturals in front of the camera. But I think it also helped that they were in an environment they loved.

Best of 2012!

What a year it has been! As I reflect on the past year, I see how lucky I’ve been to have worked with such lovely and unique people. My job has taken me to beautiful locations and has introduced me to some truly wonderful people. I’ve had such a difficult time choosing my favorite images of 2012…which you’ll see…as there are many! I’ve had the opportunity to witness and capture some really special and one of a kind moments. I’m so pleased to be able to share some of my favorites. The engagement session can be an important part of my job. And certainly one of the most fun! It’s my first opportunity to really spend some time with my clients. I learn about their relationships, personalities and styles. And my clients learn what it’s like to be photographed. I always ask my clients to choose a location that is special to them and speaks to their relationship. So I find myself in some interesting spots from local bars and city streets to hiking trails and farms. Here are some of my favorite from this year… The wedding day is a wild and exciting day. By far, […]
