Allyson and Mike

You might recognize Allyson and Mike from their engagement session a couple of weeks ago. It was good to see them again at the Nonatum Resort in Kennebunkport. The location was beautiful and Allyson and Mike’s friends and family were great to be around, especially when the dancing started. I kept waiting for people to get tired, but the dance floor was consistently packed. This one was a lot of fun. Congratulations, Allyson and Mike!

Larisa and Chris

Larisa and Chris actually got married last year. However, having all your friends and family in one place is a rare opportunity, and they didn’t want to spend the day posing for pictures. But, they do want some nice pictures of the two of them. Almost a year later we spent an evening on Crane Beach in Ipswich getting some fun pictures of just the two of them in their wedding-best. Larisa and Chris earned all my respect when the mosquitos and gnats came out and tried to eat them alive. They ate me up, too, but it didn’t matter if I looked miserable. These guys are pros.

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.

Renee and Michael

Renee and Mike were married at the beautiful Elks at Bass Rocks. People from all over the country descended on Gloucester for their beautiful celebration on the water. Renee and Mike have some wonderful friends and family that made my short time with them a lot of fun. Congratulations and thanks for including me!

The Fourth

Brooke and I walked down the sidewalk in front of our house, got on the Green Line to catch a plane, and ended up on Emerald Isle, NC yesterday. We’re looking forward to a week of relaxation with friends and family. This is an annual tradition in its 27th year. God Bless America.

Patty and Anthony

If you ask me, the best light of the day is at sunrise. But, when I told Patty and Anthony that 6:30 a.m. would be a possible time to do their engagement portraits, I didn’t expect them to think that was a good idea. I’m lucky they did. Not only were Patty and Anthony absolutely delightful to be around, but it might be a little while before I can find another couple to get up that early with me. I think it paid off.

Waking up before the sun also means you have a good chance of eating breakfast at The Paramount before the line is out the door. By the time the rest of Boston was waking up, the three of us were starving and needed some sausage and french toast to help get our second wind.

Patty and Anthony live in Dallas but decided to do their engagement portraits in Boston for something a little different. Anthony has been working here for the past few months, and they have grown to love the city. They still love Texas, of course, and were so thoughtful to bring me a gift basket with all their favorite things from back home: Stubb’s BBQ sauce, chili mix, salsa, sweet tea, and even a cowboy hat wall-hanger.

Looks like I’m going to have to get me a cowboy hat : )
