You’ll remember Erin and Ben from their North End engagement shoot. I hung out with them this time at their beautiful wedding at the Wayside Inn. Getting to know their friends and family was as much fun as wandering around with Erin and Ben last fall. The two put a lot of thought into the details of their wedding, and it was exciting to see everything come together so well. The wonderful Rachel and Eliza of WedBoston deserve some of that credit. Congratulations, Erin and Ben! I was honored to be there.

You’ll recognize some of the spots in Ashley and Alden’s engagement session in their wedding pictures. For the wedding they put a tent in the open field and celebrated there with the people closest to them. They incorporated the beautiful farm setting with the comforts of delicious food, good drinks and an on-site cigar roller. I’ve had so much fun getting to know Ashley and Alden this past year. I hope these pictures capture a fraction of all the love and celebration present that day. Also, a big thanks to the absurdly talented Chris Cappozziello for working with me. He’s responsible for the shots of Alden before the ceremony, the awesome picture of Ashley and Alden walking down the aisle, the table detail and the beautiful picture of Ashley’s mom listening to her and Alden’s toast. I’m hoping people might confuse his pictures for mine : )

Miranda and Joshua live in New York City but invited their friends and families to celebrate with them in the Mohonk Preserve in New Paltz, NY. The views were a beautiful backdrop to what was otherwise a big backyard party of games and good company. I didn’t get a chance to meet Miranda and Joshua until the day of the wedding, but I quickly realized how lucky I was to be there with them and the people most important in their lives. What a wonderful celebration. Congratulations, Miranda and Joshua!

Mimi and Max were married at Houghton Memorial Chapel on the Wellesley College campus before heading to the Henderson House for their reception. I’ve enjoyed Mimi and Max’s great wit and pleasant demeanor while getting to know them both this past year. I’m extremely happy for the two and wish them all the best. Congratulations, Mimi and Max!

I traveled to Caitlin and Pete’s backyard for their engagement session in the fall. For their wedding at the Peabody Essex Museum, they were just up Route 1 from my backyard. They got ready at the Salem Waterfront Hotel before walking over to the museum. All of Caitlin and Pete’s friends and family were so welcoming, and I had a great time being around their fun crowd. Congratulations, Caitlin and Pete!

You’ll remember Tim and Greg from their engagement session last year. I’ve been looking forward to their wedding ever since that afternoon, and my expectations weren’t disappointed. We hit up the same spots we did in November, except this time we were all dressed up, and Tim and Greg’s favorite people were there to celebrate with them. The ceremony was at Christ Church and then everyone made the quick walk to Upstairs on the Square for a beautiful reception. It’s been such a pleasure getting to know Tim and Greg. And Scooter! Congratulations, guys.
