Arianna and Zach

Arianna and Zach got married in a Westport, Conn. backyard. They wanted to overwhelm their guests’ senses, and that was certainly accomplished as you’ll see below. Although what I loved most about working with Arianna and Zach was not only the clear connection they have with each other but in how much they enjoyed delighting […]

10 Years: Meagan and Mark

My wedding portfolio was thin when Meagan and Mark decided to hire me 10 years ago. I decided to focus on weddings full time in 2008 and these two were among the first to hire me. A decade of anything makes one reflect, and as I do that I wanted to go visit Mark and […]

Jennifer and Peter

Jennifer and Peter got married at Gibbet Hill in Groton and planned the whole thing in six weeks. They had all their loved ones gathered in a beautiful place, eating delicious food, listening to wonderful music, and they only had to worry about wedding logistics for a month and a half. Well played, Jennifer and […]

Caroline and Erik

Caroline and Erik got married at Emmanuel Church in Manchester by the Sea before heading to Caroline’s parents’ house in Wenham. I love backyard weddings, and after meeting Erik and Caroline at Keirsa (Erik’s sister) and Steve’s wedding last year I was particularly looking forward to this one. I’m always trying to add more meaning […]

10 Years

Yoon Byun took this photo of me as I got ready to leave for Adrienne and Brandon’s wedding on September 21, 2008. That year was my first full wedding season. Over 300 couples have passed before my lens since my first wedding. I don’t approach documenting these families any differently than I did in 2008. […]

Natalie and Patrick

Natalie and Patrick got married at Sacred Heart Church before their reception at City Winery in Boston. The temperatures were high that day, but the laid back vibe Natalie and Patrick set held the heat as a side note to an otherwise beautiful summer day in the city. I love when the city integrates into a […]

Erin and Matt

Erin and Matt got married at Terrydiddle Farm in Rehoboth. The vibe was like a backyard bbq where people dressed real nice. They had a mobile pizza oven on site, and people ate good food, drank, played yard games and laughed a lot. I loved the pace of this wedding and really enjoyed being around […]

Jessica and George

Jessica and George got married at the Red Lion Inn. The crossing of cultures included Indian, Italian, New England and Texan. I don’t know if this is what was responsible for the festive and joyous atmosphere, but the excitement was present from the moment I arrived and continued to grow before peaking on the dance […]

Heather and Kyle

Heather and Kyle got married in a Falmouth backyard. I loved showing up and seeing family and friends all helping to put the finishing touches on the spaces. I also loved seeing Blue Ribbon BBQ roll up with a hog sweating in a smoker. A beautiful spot, good food, and great company made this wedding […]

Kate and Andrew

Kate took a gamble. When she met up with Andrew for the first time on their wedding day she came with a new guitar her groom has long coveted. Would Andrew’s focus be rendered useless on this sacred day? Or would his conviction to spend the rest of his life with Kate become even stronger? […]
