Maggie and Manny [married] November 4, 2017

What a way to end 2017. I was so excited to be back at Tupper Manor in Beverly for Maggie and Manny’s wedding. It was a gorgeous but cool November day. I love the overall feel of Tupper Manor. It’s located right on the water and is just as beautiful inside as it is outside. Maggie looked absolutely stunning in her gown. I loved that she chose that rich cranberry color for her girls to wear. I love those jewel tones especially in the fall.

Maggie and Manny chose to do a quick first look before there ceremony. This was nice for them to have a few moments together before their ceremony. One of my favorite shots of the year is their bubble exit from the church! You can just see how extremely happy they both were the whole day. We did some more portraits after the ceremony and I loved that Maggie kicked her shoes off to get down to the beach at sunset! The party really got started once that dance floor opened. I really loved Maggie and Manny’s first dance along with all of the awesome dance moves of their guests.

Thank you guys so much for an awesome day. I think these pictures speak for themselves!

Kaitlin and John [married] October 28th 2017

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I’m so thankful for all the wonderful couples I was lucky enough to get to know and document their weddings. You all make my job so rewarding and a blast. Thank you, thank you!

Before heading off to feast on all the foods, I wanted to share Kaitlin and John’s gorgeous late October wedding. It was a traditional Marine Corps wedding. They had their ceremony at St. Mary’s in Foxboro complete with the Arch of Swords ceremony at the end! A big shout out to John for serving our country. He looked very dapper in his dress blues. Kaitlin looked absolutely radiant all day long. She couldn’t stop smiling all day. We headed to Bittersweet Farm for the reception and the location didn’t disappoint. I loved the grounds around the venue and how much time we had to take photos! I will let all the pictures speak for themselves. Thank you guys again for being so wonderful!

Caitlin and Ryan [married] October 20th 2017

October was a busy month for weddings this year. Caitlin and Ryan were lucky to have such a beautiful fall day. I got to spend some time with Cait and her girls before the ceremony. Ryan looked like he had some fun with his groomsmen before hand as well. I loved Caitlin’s flowers. The sunflowers were a beautiful accent to the purple bridesmaid dresses. We trekked from Norwood to the ceremony in Weymouth. I loved how the light was shining down on them during their vows. It looked like sparkles! Some times these unexpected moments are my favorite.

After the ceremony we headed back to the Tiffany Ballroom in Norwood for the reception. I love new outdoor patio. It offers some great photo opportunities! Caitlin and Ryan threw quite a party. I’m so glad we were asked to capture your day!

Kaitlyn and Jesse [married] October 8th 2017

Last month we got to travel up to Northport, Maine for Kaitlyn and Jesse’s October wedding. They had their celebration at the Point Look Out Resort and everything about their weekend was awesome. The location alone was gorgeous for their fall, coastal New England wedding. The views were top notch. While the weather was iffy all day on their wedding we were still able to get some amazing photos all day long. This might be my new favorite place to shoot at. I loved the indoor locations just as much. So much beautiful natural light.

I have been lucky to know Kaitlyn since high school. It is really an honor when old friends ask you to be a part of their day. It means so much that I can capture these memories for my job! Kaitlyn looked absolutely stunning in her lace gown. Despite it being crazy windy we were able to do the first look and all formal pictures outside. I loved watching the fog rolling across the top of the mountain and down at the beach when we took a drive. It was such a picturesque spot. I’m so happy to share these images. Thank you both for letting us share in your wedding!

Meghan and Eric [married] September 29th 2017

This fall is flying by! I have been so fortunate to shoot at so many beautiful locations. One of those locations was Peaks Island Maine at the end of September. Meghan and Eric were so lucky to have a beautiful sunny day for their wedding. Being a photographer himself, Eric knew the importance of having the time for photos and boy did we have lots of time. After doing a first look down the waterfront, we hoped in the car and drove around the island to take photos with just the bride and groom. It made for a very relaxing and easy going day.

Back at the Inn on Peaks Island, Meghan and Eric had a beautiful ceremony and had plenty of time to hang out with their family and friends. So many personal touches went into their wedding. I loved Meghan’s use of yellow and purple throughout the reception space. Eric’s own photography was used for table numbers. I love when couples take the extra time to add these details into their day.

One thing that Peaks has is a great view of an amazing sunset. We couldn’t resist getting down to the docks to get some photos. Meghan and Eric, thank you so much for having us. We had such a great time! Totally a bonus when my parents are at a wedding too 😉

Ali and Pat [married] September 15th 2017

It started off as a rainy Friday on Ali and Pat’s wedding day. However, as New England weather goes, the sun came out for all the important parts of their day. Ali got ready at her home in Peabody and we met up with Pat to do a first look at her cousins house. It was such a beautiful setting. I know they enjoyed having those few quiet moments together. After some portraits of the two of them we headed to the Ceremony which was short and sweet. Once the ceremony was over we raced to the Oceanview of Nahant for the reception. We arrived to a gorgeous sunset and were able to get the rest of wedding party pictures done before it started to rain again. I would say this was a very lucky day! The Oceanview of Nahant is a gorgeous venue and I always love shooting there. They ended their night with a last dance on the beach with sparklers. One of my favorite shots from their wedding was the last one!

Ali and Pat we had so much fun with the two of you. Ali. you looked absolutely gorgeous!
