When Heather first told me her wedding was being held in Rochester, MA. I was like, "Rochester, where? Isn't that in New York?" Alas, apparently there is a Rochester, MA and it is the closest to being back home in Wisconsin that I have yet experienced out here on the East Coast...it made me a little homesick to be honest.

After the session though, I discovered that

a.) yes, Rochester, MA does exist.
b.) it is GORGEOUS out there. Words cannot describe the amazing sunset we had (hopefully the pictures do)
c.) Heather and Joe totally rock. They are up for anything and I am SO excited to shoot their wedding in a few weeks.

ENJOY! Lots more coming soon, including Aitza and Rui's Engagement Session, Amanda and Mike's Engagement Session and Susan and Jay's Wedding....whew! Busy weekend!



We started out the session on a nearby beach.







I love this shot - her tattoo is so beautiful.



The playground seemed to fit Heather's and Joe's personalities perfectly!










And then we made our way over to the farm. Who doesn't love a tractor???




Especially with a sunset like this behind it.





This is one of my favorites from the day. I love Heather's laugh - she is one of the most expressive people I've had the opportunity to photograph.





See! I told you the sunset was amazing!










And of course, we had to go into the cornfields.

Kate and Matt - July 13, 2008


Kate and Matt are a very unique couple who both have this unbelievable source of energy that just follows them around. I had never met this couple prior to them booking me as they live in Virginia, but the minute we started shooting their engagement session back in December, I knew that photographing their wedding was going to be amazing. They were immediately comfortable, having fun, laughing and just being themselves. They are also just so photogenic that I hardly had to do anything and they looked stunning in all of the photos.

Fast forward a few months to last Sunday at the Coonamesett Inn in Falmouth...

If I had to pick one highlight from the wedding, it would be the ceremony. Kate is a school teacher and before she came up here for the wedding, she had all of her children write down advice for being married. If I have to say so myself, her school children are pretty smart, as they advise Matt that he should:

a.) Kiss her everyday.
b.) Take her to a Red Sox game
c.) Take her to a really nice restaurant
on their anniversary, like Applebees.

Love. Baseball. Food. Does it really get any better than that?









Kate wore Pink Shoes. Awesome.







She makes such a beautiful bride. I can't believe how calm she looks in this photo!




Quite the McDreamy. Sorry ladies...he's married now! Walking down the aisle



Waiting for her.



MARRIED!

Yum! Cupcakes!


This is one of my favorites of the day. It really captures who these two are as a couple. Matt is just so caring and loving towards Kate all the time.






Always the gentlemen, Matt holds the door for her.

Gotta love those pink shoes.


Congratulations Kate and Matt!

Need to Blog!

I have been very neglectful towards my blog recently and the list of everything to put up here is continuing to grow. While I still need to post Christie's and Mike's wedding photos, I want to share today a few images from two very different weddings for two very different couples this past weekend.

Saturday I had the pleasure of helping out Vanessa Photography for Dave and Denise's wedding at Sapphire Estate in Sharon, MA. It was a daytime wedding and the weather was perfect. As we were walking down the road towards the lake for some photos, we decided it would be fun to hold up traffic. When we were done, the bride and groom got a lot of honks and congratulations!






Then on Sunday Vanessa and I traveled down to the Coonamessett Inn in Cape Cod for my wedding with Kate and Matt. You may remember them as the really cute and absolutely gorgeous couple from the holiday engagement photos last December...this wedding was just so amazing in so many ways, but mostly because of how wonderfully caring these two individuals are (and not just to each other, but to everyone around them). They were both so laid back the entire wedding and after dinner we were able to sneak out of the party for a few quick pictures at the beach....






Congratulations to both Dave and Denise and Kate and Matt!

(More photos to come soon...I promise!
