Rainy, Wet Weekend Weddings

Rain, winds and hurricanes can't stop a wedding. Or two weddings for that matter.

I'm anxious to share both of this past weekend's weddings but it will have to wait
awhile. I am leaving tomorrow morning at 6am for Washington DC and still am not
packed. Opps. While I'm away though, you can enjoy a sneak preview of both
weddings that were completely different and unique and matched each couple's
personalities perfectly...



Mike and Amanda - September 26th, 2008 Lakeview Pavilion - Foxoboro




Tim and Liz - September 27th, 2008 The Commadant's House - Boston

Meg and AJ's Engagement

Still trying to catch up! Meg and AJ were my first 2009 wedding clients - they
booked me back in the fall of 2007! Since then, they both have been finishing
up law school and studying hard for their Bar Exam so it took some time before
we were finally able to squeeze in their engagement session They are getting
married next summer at Zukas Hilltop Barn, which is very lush and green. So
for their engagement photos, they really wanted to do something in the city.
They suggested the Beacon Hill area and I thought it was a great idea. I always
love when I get to wander the streets of Boston look for cool places to photograph.





We found a secret private garden that we snuck into.






Wanted to try something new on this one and I think it works! I really love the mood.

Very classic and cool.


So this photo has an interesting story. Apparently there is a street in Beacon Hill
that you have to pay $250 to photograph on. Huh??? We were not aware of this
until Meg and AJ were already lying on the ground and a neighbor came out and
not-so-politely informed us of it. Well, me being myself, I took the shot anyways
and we left. Isn't anything free anymore?!?


One of my favorites from the day.


Thanks Meg and AJ! I can't wait for next summer.

Last Summer Wedding..sigh

It appears as if Fall is officially here, and I guess that is sort of suiting as my summer
beach weddings came to a close two Saturday's ago. From here forward, you'll be
seeing a lot of fall weddings with rich deep colors. But for now, we can remember
how great summer was and say farewell to it with Christine's and Chris's Cape Cod Wedding.

Although the skies threatened rain on our drive down to the Cape, the blue skies
and sunshine eventually came out. The wedding was held at the Chequesett Yacht Club
in Wellfleet, MA with the ceremony on the beach and the reception at a very rustic
boathouse with a fun vibe. The setting was beautiful and Chris and Christine were
all smiles all day long.









Jovee from Jovee Henehan Photography came along as my second shooter. These next 3 photos of Chris were taken by her at his house while he was getting ready.






I absolutely adore this shot. I turned around and saw this little guy just hanging out by himself (I think he was playing video games?!?) Anyways, I thought it set a mood.


Sigh...I want summer back.


This shot was too cute not to include. It was not taken by me, but rather by Jovee. She said she wanted to do a depth of field shot but didn't know what to focus on, so she drew a heart in the sand. Awww...so sweet.



Married!!!! Isn't her Maid of Honor so cute? It's her sister and she was SO excited!

















Congratulations you two!!!

Fenway Park

When we looked at the weather forecast for Michelle and Brendan's engagement
session, it didn't look too promising. Having already rescheduled once and living
in New York, they decided we had to make the session happen, rain or shine.

Original Plan: Sunny Beach Photos (Not going to happen)

New Amazingly Awesome Plan: Photos inside Fenway Park

When Michelle told me her Dad had access to the park and did we want to do
the session there, I was like "Hell Yes we do!" I have been dying to do a session
inside the park for ever and now I can finally cross it off my list. As always,
while inside the park, I really tried to find tiny obscure places to shoot that
didn't exactly let you know where we were. And then of course, we had to
do a few "traditional" shots one would image in Fenway Park.
For example, what says Fenway better than Yankees vs Red Sox?







This is one of my favorites from the day. I really like the mood.












They're such a fun couple!
