Natalie + James’ Simple and Elegant Tent Wedding

Natalie and James’ wedding was the perfect picture of simple elegance. From the ceremony under the arch of baby’s breath and vines (made by the bride, no less) to the mason jars with lace and candles adorning the tables, everything was gorgeous and nothing was overdone. The ceremony and reception took place at the Connors Center which is a total hidden gem in Dover, MA. The outdoor grounds are breathtaking and guests were truly allowed to enjoy the outdoor experience as they spent the evening looking at the night sky through the clear top tent. I was honored to be working with a beloved colleague Paula Marrero of Marrero Events on this beautiful wedding!

And together, they were even more fun and light. They had a perfect day at the Sapphire Estate complete with a beautiful sunset. Check out how Corie coordinated her fabulous colorful bridesmaid’s dresses with matching bouquets. So adorable!

Lora + Ryan’s Rustic Spring Wedding

Lora and Ryan’s first look is possibly my favorite first look ever! Just look at the excitement in both of their faces. It’s absolutely priceless. They were married on a perfect Spring Day at the Common Man Inn and Restaurant in New Hampshire. The rustic town made some fun and funky images. And their excitement lasted through the celebration where every look brought a smile to their faces. It was a lovely day and I was so happy to capture that fun.

Sam + Rose’s B’nai Mitzvah at the New England Aquarium

Sam + Rose are two sweet, smart, goofy, engaging and all around wonderful people! We met on Thursday for their B’nai Mitzvah rehearsal and spent some quite time shooting with just the family. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them and getting to know their unique and truly lovable personalities. Then, on to the celebration Saturday evening at the New England Aquarium. What a perfect spot for a Mitzvah! And the rare (but much welcome) Spring weather made it perfect for an evening in their waterfront tent. Enjoy your slide show Sam and Rose. And call me for the weddings!!!!

Leanne + Justin’s Snowy Wedding at the Barn at Gibbet Hill

So I’ll admit it. I was really hoping for a beautiful spring day for Leanne and Justin! There are so many gorgeous outdoor spots at the Barn at Gibbet Hill. I wanted to take advantage of them all! Well life laughs as we make our plans. We woke to a chilly, clear day with snow covering the surrounding hills. I can work with that! Leanne and Justin (and their fabulous wedding party) were total champs braving the cold to get those beautiful outdoor images. I feel so lucky to have (what I hope are) some of the last snow flakes of the year on those hills! Leanne and Justin’s easy and fun personalities made the rest of the day perfect.

Rozzie + Ben’s Winter Wedding

Through my many years of wedding experience, I have learned the details that make a wedding truly special and memorable have nothing to do with money. The details that are special about your wedding day come from your history, your traditions, your relationship with your partner and your loved ones. Rozzie + Ben’s wedding at the Hilton Boston Logan was certainly elegant and quite lavish. But the emotion and tradition I captured that day trumped all else. Rozzie + Ben had a very traditional Jewish wedding complete with a Tisch and Bedeken. Along with the Ketubah signing, these three beautiful and meaningful ceremonies marry a couple before the actual ceremony. I’m so excited to share their story with you!

Year in Review, Part Eight

Weddings The Celebration! The planning is over. The formals are taken. He’s kissed the bride. It’s time to party! This is when the bride and groom finally get to give a sigh of relief and celebrate with their closest friends and relatives. And this is the when I am able to truly disappear. No, I don’t leave the wedding! But I take a step back, put my long lens on and capture the beautiful emotion happening all around me. The story teller in me does a little dance of joy! This is my last post of 2013, and I think it’s perfect to finish the year with some of my favorite reception photos. We end the year with toasts, dancing and cake…perfection! It’s been an honor capturing these truly singular memories over the past year. I can’t wait to see you all in 2014. There will be many more adventures to come! Happy New Year!

Year in Review, Part Seven

Weddings The Details The wedding day details are truly important! They’re the little mementos and projects couples work on to add meaning and personality to the day. Since many of these details are not saved (flowers, favors, place cards, etc.) a great photo can be the only way to remember the items and the work put into selecting, and sometimes creating them. Sometimes, the location or backdrop of a wedding can be the most fabulous detail. I’ve photographed on beautiful beaches, rustic farms and against amazing city skylines. Through the year, I’ve been deeply touched by the heirlooms I’ve seen as well, everything from a gorgeous broach from a great grandmother’s wedding to a piece of flannel from a deceased father’s favorite shirt. What a beautiful way to keep your loved ones close.

Weddings The Ceremony The ceremony is an incredibly special part of the day. It is, after all, why all your loved ones have come together! Whether it is in a garden, a ballroom, a temple or a church, I work to be as unobtrusive and invisible as possible. I want the attention on your moment, not the crazy photographer. This, of course, is balanced with making sure I am in the perfect spot to catch the unique traditions and moments of your special day. I’ve been complimented by several couples who were amazed by the fact that they didn’t see me once during their ceremony. Some actually feared I hadn’t taken any photos! Now that’s what I call unobtrusive!

Year In Review, Part Five

Weddings The Formals This category can be a bit deceiving. Most often, my formal photos at a wedding are anything but formal! I want my clients to look and feel natural in their family and wedding party photos. So we keep the session light, fun…and maybe a bit goofy. The light atmosphere is even more important these days as many couples are choosing to see each other prior to the ceremony to complete the session and enjoy the rest of the day. Since the ceremony is still ahead, they’re often still pretty nervous. I’ve been known to do just about anything to lighten the mood!
