Lauren & Steve

For Lauren and Steve's engagement shoot they suggested something a little different. They suggested going to the elementary school they both attended:) These two are total love birds who dated in school and through college and are now planning an amazing wedding at the Granite Links Golf Club and have Gabrielle Stone planning the event. We hit the playground, were denied access to the inside of school simply because it was locked up and empty, and then went to the nearby pond for the sunset. Lauren and Steve are having Enna design one of her custom guest books with images from this shoot and it is going to rock!

Noelle & Dane at the Charles Hotel

Noelle and Dane were such a great couple to photograph for the kick off of our New England wedding season! We wrote about their love for Cambridge on their engagement blog post, and we had a great time in Harvard Square photographing their wedding day at the Charles Hotel. The dance floor was rockin due to the great sound of Night Shift. Check out these fun shots from the day.

Gretchen & Paul

Gretchen and Paul were so much fun to watch get married. I feel like we have been on this amazing run with grooms who are just besides themselves with the good fortune they have. All night Paul looked at Gretchen in total awe and love. And why wouldn't he? Gretchen is beautiful in every way! Their reception was held at the Ballroom Veronique and while it was brutally cold outside, they kept the night warm with their excitement:) Check out these cool images from the day...

Gretchen's mom was so fun to photograph, the excitement was eating her up!

I love this shot of Gretchen taken just before we left the hotel

I snuck to the back of the church quickly to get this cool shot of Paul anxiously awaiting the start of the ceremony

Gretchen through the church door window just before the ceremony

There was a moment during my own wedding ceremony I remember perfectly, and I had my eyes shut, I wonder if it's the same for Paul

This is the look I was talking about! Paul had it all night long. Nothing but pure love:)

Thank you Gretchen and Paul for inviting me to be such a part of your day! You are such a wonderful couple and I can not wait to get your album in your hands - it's going to be full of beautiful emotions:)

Beautiful Getting Ready Photo

We're putting the finishing touches on Gretchen and Paul's wedding and I just stumbled on this gorgeous image by Matt. I love the intense emotion, the fleeting quality of their foreheads touching each other. Just a wonderful mother-daughter-right-before-the-wedding photograph!

Ashley & Jamie, an Anguilla Wedding

Ashley and Jamie's destination of choice for their beautiful wedding was Anguilla. The ceremony was held at a beautiful small stone church on the island and the reception was at Cap Juluca. Ashley and Jamie truly are two of the nicest and most considerate people we have ever met - the amount of effort and thought they put into making the journey easy for their guests was amazing. The weekend's events included a welcoming cocktail party, a beach barbecue at the Cuisinart Resort, sailing, croquet, tennis matches, yoga, beach fun, a rehearsal dinner at the cozy and wonderful Blanchards restaurant, and a "thank you for coming" departure brunch at Geraud's bakery (side note: Geraud makes absolutely to die for coconut croissants... out of this world)... and oh yeah, a totally gorgeous wedding reception at Cap Juluca.

Since we were there for a week we took a lot of photos... and I mean a ton! Trying to decide on what we would share on the blog was tough. Our original selection was about 100 photos:) Could you imagine how long that post would be! So after a long time sitting here posting and re-posting trying to keep the length of this reasonable, here are some of our favorites from the wedding....

We absolutely love this moment caught: Ashley's father helping her with her train and giving her a kiss just before they walked down the aisle

This is the setting for the reception dinner. Nothing short of breathtaking.

Jamie and Ashley had a very fun first dance

Loved the fireworks!

Congratulations Ashley and Jamie - and thank you for including us in your very special wedding!

Here's our Anguilla Team:

We also can't neglect to mention how wonderful it was to work (again) with Alexis and her husband Brian of Unique Weddings by Alexis (working hard in this photo) and Alex and Julie of Elysium Productions. There was a lot of other talent working behind the scenes to make this wedding a gorgeous success, we're just so impressed at how perfect everything was. Here's the team from left to right:
