Rebecca and Mel

I lived in Vermont for a brief stint, and I always love going back there. Rebecca and Mel just moved from California to Vermont this summer, just in time for their wedding. I got a chance to meet them earlier this summer for a drink and knew immediately I was going to have a great time documenting their wedding day. The Cooper Hill Inn, where both the ceremony and reception were, has an amazing view of the mountains. It was the perfect back drop for a really fun wedding. Congratulations, Rebecca and Mel!

Susan and Andy

You can’t predict the weather. But if you’re lucky, sometimes mother nature will give you something better than what you hoped for. An hour before I met up with Susan and Andy the sky was clear. But as we made our way to Harwich Port, thick fog began to roll in. Although it changed our plans to use the boats of Wychmere Harbor as a backdrop, the light was soft and beautiful. It felt otherworldly. Susan and Andy live in New York City, and this was the first time I had the pleasure of meeting them. It was a lot of fun driving around the Cape and getting to learn more about them. I’m really looking forward to their Dennisport wedding in September.

Karen and Daniel

Karen and Daniel had an afternoon wedding at the beautiful Belmont Habitat. Before that, Daniel got ready and came to Karen’s apartment where her family held a brief tea ceremony. The rain stayed away for the important parts of the day, and then the skies opened up for a magnificent storm. It was so spectacular everyone stopped to watch it. Rain can be inconvenient on a wedding day, but when nature creates such a display it’s a privilege to witness. Especially on a day that’s already so memorable.

Julia and Mike

When I found out Julia and Mike were fellow journalism school graduates I had a good feeling we would be on the same page. But, what I didn’t count on was how funny and charming they, and all their family and friends, would be. It’s easy to forget what articulate means until you spend a day around people who are experts in the craft of storytelling.

And it was great to be back at the Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center. I see a lot of hotels and other wedding venues in my line of work, but I rarely see one run so well. It’s always a pleasure to spend time there, on or off the clock. However, take that with a grain of salt. I’m biased.

Addie and Dave

Addie and Dave know how to have a good time. Music is an important part of their lives, and their reception playlist is one of the best I’ve ever heard. The people on the dance floor thought so, too. It was another one of those receptions where I wished I was a guest. Thanks for making me part of such a beautiful day, Addie and Dave!

UPDATE: Jeff Brouillet just sent me a link to highlights from Addie and Dave’s wedding video. It’s absolutely beautiful. It was a pleasure working with Jeff, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

Emily and Matt

Getting to know Emily and Matt has been such a pleasure. Spending an evening with them roaming the city made me look forward to their wedding even more. They picked a beautiful late-summer day to celebrate with their friends and family in a Cape Cod backyard. Delicious food, beautiful details and wonderful music surrounded the people closest to them to make for a really special night.

Addie and Dave

Addie and Dave’s wedding is soon, but it’s never too late for engagement pictures. We walked quickly through the Public Garden and then headed up Newbury Street. Addie and Dave met while working at a Newbury Comics, so we went into the Newbury Street location to reminisce. They couldn’t help but straighten records and CDs as they walked by. Their wedding is going to be a fun one. I have a good feeling about that.

Jen and Jesse

Would you believe I shot two weddings in Wisconsin this summer? I met Jen and Jesse at Elizabeth and Kavi’s wedding, and they invited me to come back out to document their celebration as well. The ceremony took place in a stream on old family land, and the reception was at a historic town hall surrounded by beautiful cornfields. Jen and Jesse share a unique passion for each other and for life in general. I’m two-for-two with awesome couples tying the knot in Wisconsin. Can’t wait for my next Wausau wedding!
