Newport will always hold a special place in the hearts of Marisa and Jack since it’s where they first met studying at Salve Regina, where we ended up traveling for some gorgeous portraits. Even though the now live in Napa Valley, it only made sense that they returned to Newport for their wedding. They had their ceremony and reception at the Newport Harbor Island Resort overlooking the beautiful Newport bridge. The sunset over the water was the most spectacular we’ve seen yet!
This wedding was one of the most awesomely creative and unique we’ve ever shot. It was a whole vibe from Nette’s golden amber dress to Ben’s emerald green tweed suit. They got ready at a private estate in Gloucester near the ocean. They had their first look on the rocky coastline under the warm sun. They then walked back to have their ceremony under a chuppah in the grass as their friends and family stood surrounding them. Their pup even made an appearance running down the aisle as the ring bearer! With a kiss they were wed and then guests enjoyed their time admiring the stunning views and sunset.
Freddy and Steph met at a party at Hamilton College on St. Patrick's Day in 2011. Freddy asked Steph for a photo on the night they met, as if he knew he'd want to remember that moment. They started dating a year later and have been together ever since, doing long distance for nearly half their 9-year relationship. They finally moved in together in Boston in 2018 and after recently becoming homeowners, they both call Boston home.
Love radiated in every corner as Alyssa and Chris tied the knot at the breathtaking Brae Burn Country Club in Newton, Massachusetts. From the anticipation-filled moments of getting ready separately to the heartwarming sight of their first glance down the aisle, their special day was a true celebration of their love.
Ariel and Bruno’s story began in New York City but their hearts were always in Boston. They chose to have their wedding reception at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel for it’s central location and classical splendor. They got ready in the rooms overlooking the cityscape, laughing and enjoying the preparations. They had their first look and even included their adorable puppy, Teddy in some photos. We then walked over to the Public Gardens where we took a tour around Swan Pond. Ariel looked amazing in her Pnina Tornai gown and lush bouquet from Kerianne Nelson Flora.
There are just too many showstoppers in this wedding to count. Katie and Nick had the absolute perfect wedding day at the Gardens at Elm Bank. The sun was shining and the clouds looked like a painting. They began getting ready at nearby hotels and then we met in the gardens for the first look. Nick was overwhelmed seeing how beautiful Katie looked in her lace dress. We then walked around the Italianate Garden to take wedding party photos against the backdrop of the mansion.
Maggie and Jon frequent Duxbury Beach and wanted a sunny and bright beachy engagement session. Unfortunately New England weather had other plans, as an unexpected thunderstorm rolled in right when we were to begin our session! Not to be deterred, the clouds made for a dramatic backdrop against the soft sands of the beach.
Alyssa + Chris wanted to have their engagement photos taken in the place most special to them. The Seaport is where they live with their adorable English Bulldog named Peach. We began right outside their home in a little park for some doggy kisses. Next we walked right around the corner to some beautiful cobblestones in between industrial brick buildings. As we walked towards the water, we made a quick stop to photograph the spot where Chris proposed. Finally, we made it to the water, where we climbed the steps of the ICA and explored the Harborwalk. The Seaport is one of my favorite spots to photograph since the architecture looks great year round. Congrats to the happy couple!
Back in March of 2020, most of us didn’t think we would still be dealing with the pandemic today. Many postponed their wedding plans from 2020 to 2021 thinking that we would be safe to have large gatherings with hugs and dancing all around. Instead it’s time to get creative. Let me introduce you to pandemic wedding planning 101. After having seen 20 weddings last year, we’ve learned a thing or two!
Katie and Matt were originally planning a grand wedding at the Bradley Estate in Canton. When they had to adjust their plans, they wanted a more intimate outdoor wedding with amazing food. They found SRV Boston in the south end and it was perfect for their closest friends and families.
After planning a big State Room wedding for a year a half they had to quickly pivot to planning a smaller gathering in Mari's parents backyard. Though they couldn't have the wedding they originally hoped for, they are just happy to still be getting married. They also bought a house two months before their wedding, so it’s been exciting having so many big life events happen all at the same time in the middle of a pandemic!
Danielle and Sam’s wedding was simply the most touching and loving day we’ve seen! It ended up being a roundabout planning process beginning with a big celebration planned at a venue, then it was a smaller wedding planned at their Temple and finally ending up as a micro wedding with just immediate family at the Hammond Castle Museum in Gloucester.
Brian and Toks have been together for years and planned a dream destination wedding on the Amalfi coast in Italy. After this tumultuous year, they realized that wouldn’t be possible. Instead they reworked their plans to have an intimate wedding at home in NYC. Lucky for them, their home includes an incredible rooftop overlooking the Empire State building in the heart of the city! They began getting ready in their apartment in the Centurian building. Their golden retriever pup, Jack, was present and anxiously waiting for his big moment walking down the aisle as the ring bearer.
Beautiful location alert! Leah and Will decided they wanted a nautical theme for their engagement session so we decided to go to Marblehead. We began at Crocker Park, where there was a beautiful castle with pretty ivy. We then walked to the water with so many little sailboats dotting the harbor. After that, we took a drive to Castle Rock around the other side of the harbor. The waves were huge and crashing on the rocks as we scaled over to a good vantage of the tumultuous surf.
Theresa and Mike’s elegant intimate wedding began at their apartment in Cambridge. Theresa was getting ready upstairs with their apartment beautifully decorated with florals from Haus of Blooms. She was there with her Maid of Honor, mother and family members all enjoying the day. Meanwhile, Mike was getting ready downstairs with his parents, Best Man and their beloved pupperoo, Dobby the Corgi.
Kate and Eric had a big wedding planned at Cruiseport Gloucester but pushed it off until next year. They still wanted to get married this year with the seaside vibe in an intimate affair and chose Hammond Castle in Gloucester. It was perfect sunny weather and from the second they arrived, I knew it would be a joyful day. Kate was all smiles as she stepped out of the antique Bentley. They had a quick first look on the steps of the great hall and then it was time for there ceremony.
Ariel and Bruno wanted to commemorate their life in NYC with an engagement session in the city. They are moving back to Massachusetts but have so many wonderful memories in the city! These days, there are very few people out and about so we had free reign without crowds. We began in the seaport to capture the beautiful cobblestone streets and brick buildings. We then walked to the water to get a great view of the Brooklyn bridge lit up in the distance. After that, we headed over to their neighborhood near Battery park. Just as we got there, a summer rain storm came rolling through. Thankfully we got to their apartment just in time for a quick outfit change and to pick up their adorable golden-doodle, Teddy.
I should title this session: beautiful people in beautiful places. Laura and Ed chose the most beautiful place to photograph in Massachusetts: Castle Hill on the Crane Estate. The beauty of the grounds and the elegant manor are truly a sight to see. The Trustees of Reservations manage the property and have preserved its history. We began in the Italian gardens where there were so many flowers in bloom. We then walked down to the Casino hidden under the hill. Finally we made the walk back up to the main house to get the perfect view of the grande allée.
Jess and Josh had to scrap their Boston city wedding and instead planned a beautiful Cape Cod Micro Wedding in a matter of weeks. Even though it was very different than what they originally envisioned, everything was absolutely perfect from the bright sunny weather to the colorful flowers to their delicious wood fired pizza catered by Pizza Barbone. They even got to bring their puppy, Cooper to the wedding. It was such a perfect wedding day and we wish them all the best!
Robyn and Andrew have been planning their big wedding in the city with all the details figured out. So when they suddenly had to rethink their plans, they decided they still would like to be married on their original date and have a big party later on. They decided Robyn’s family home was the perfect place for a backyard wedding. It was a beautiful property in Methuen right next to a lake. Though the wedding was small, all the details were incredible from the archway to the table settings.
