Another Love Story

Valentine's Day has come and gone. I hope everyone spent it with someone special.
My sister and I enjoyed the day with a marathon session of Rockband and I'm now
officially a Medium level player. That's right...I totally rock.

It's cold and rainy today so I thought a good post would cheer me up and I realized I had
still not shared Chris and Jess's wedding from the Liberty Hotel.
If you have never been to the Liberty Hotel, get your bum there right now because it is
SO cool. Story goes that it was once a jail house before it was renovated as a
hotel in 2007. The decor is eclectic and fun - perfect fit for Chris and Jess's personalities.

Everything about the wedding was simple and elegant. A small guest list of less than
30 made this a very special, intimate wedding. Surrounded by their closest friends
and family, Chris and Jess tied the knot exactly 10 years from their first official date.




Here is a shot of the Liberty Hotel.


And the Awesome decor I mentioned.

I started off the day in Chris's room.




My second shooter for the day was Benjamin Burrows
and he did a phenomanal job. This next portrait is his.






Then I made my way over to Jess's room.






I adore this shot.




As well as this one. Isn't she beautiful?





So Sweet. I love the emotion on Jess's face in this image.





When I first visited the hotel, I saw the original brick from the jailhouse and
knew I had to use it somehow. I had this shot in mind all along and even made
my own homemade snoot for it (a fancy term for lighting adaptor)



Look how happy they are!


And of course, we had to get in some of the Boston skyline at sunset.




Jess picked Purple and Orange as her colors. I love the combination together.





During the ceremony.







One of my favorites from the day.

Chris and Jess - January 30th, 2009

I spent last week in Boston - there was a snow storm. I think New England
has it out for me because every time I return, the weather is just awful! But it
didn't matter for Chris and Jess's Big Day because everything was indoors at the
GORGEOUS Liberty Hotel. I am still sorting through all of the photos from the day
and will post the wedding once I'm done, but for now, I wanted to share a favorite
that I came across so far...
