Just last week I sha­red with you Sukey & Bob’s enga­ge­ment pho­tos. The weather this sum­mer was just mean. A rainy rainy June and July only got slightly bet­ter. Howe­ver, these two eeked the most out of their day!

I arri­ved at the Went­worth while they were finishing up Sukey’s finishing touches. She was Stun­ning. This was not a sur­prise as she’s an ama­zing and gor­geous per­son, but it still took your breath away.

The beau­ti­ful flo­wers by Ambro­sia Gar­dens in Ports­mouth, NH. So dainty and I love the splash of blue.

Shortly there after some of the girls piled into the car to head over to the cere­mony site.

The rain was a little too threa­te­ning so they had to make the deci­sion to move the cere­mony in the tent, which pro­ved to be a good idea as it did rain for a bit during their nuptuals.

It made ZERO impact on the hap­pi­ness though. This family is glowing!

I love that they both wal­ked her down the aisle. And that they both got to kiss her cheek to help set her at ease.

The swee­test bri­des­maids, they were all so cap­ti­va­ted by the cere­mony, but how could you not be with this gorgeousness!

The tent was great — it was very visually appea­ling, I love the lines.

They had a great sand cere­mony — I bet it makes a great addi­tion to their home!

Future pho­to­graphers of Ame­rica! I love it!

I love these two — this photo of Bob was actually when I arri­ved at the tent before the cere­mony and let him know that Sukey was here and we’d be star­ting in just a bit. He was BEAMING!

Sukey did something very uni­que — she has a lot of very spe­cial won­der­ful women in her life and so she asked them all to pick dres­ses of their choo­sing in a spe­ci­fic color and hono­red them each with a sin­gle rose. In addi­tion to the young bri­des­maids — it was a fabu­lous crew!

The men weren’t too shabby themselves!

The won­der­ful staff at the Went­worth Country Club took us golf car­ting to their beau­ti­ful bridge -

And back again to the ocean side -

Then it was time to get down and enjoy the recep­tion! The sun sho­wed up and sta­yed around and it was perfect!

Their soft blue stri­ped theme was per­fect for this July sea­side wedding!

As with everything else that day, and I’m sure in Sukey’s life, her parents sha­red in their speech together. I love the way her dad looks at her mom.

Each of Bob’s grooms­men took a stab at a speech. They were ban­ned from saying one par­ti­cu­lar word. But uh, I can’t remem­ber what that word was. It made it a lot more fun though! 

They all had a dif­fe­rent approach — from stan­dard paper -

To notes on the back of their room key. HA!

Time to cut the (tasty tasty!) cake.

And a dance with dad.

While mom watched every second.

Then it was time to toss the bou­quet — I love the look of con­cen­tra­tion on Sukey’s face!

This lucky lady caught the bou­quet but the little girls were MUCH more inte­res­ted in having a turn with it.

I can’t express how much I enjo­yed wor­king with Sukey & Bob on their wed­ding and mee­ting their family and friends. They cer­tainly have a foun­da­tion of, and are surroun­ded by, so much love and sup­port I’m sure they will be together for as long as they can imagine.

These pho­tos are SO ama­zing!! Wow! I chec­ked your web site last night and we found the gallery that way and spent the eve­ning remi­nis­cing. I can’t get over how many of these 900+ pho­tos are abso­lu­tely outs­tan­ding! I’m a little overwhel­med with work at the moment to make this as elo­quent a tes­ti­mo­nial as I would like to but — wow — am I SO glad we had you cap­tu­ring the day! You got so many moments that I mis­sed, and pic­ked up so many little details.

Here’s a telling remark which is attests to your abi­lity to be all seeing, all kno­wing. We were loo­king at some of the pho­tos you got of the guests and Bob com­men­ted “Oh, she must have taken these while we were doing pho­tos outside” He quickly rea­li­zed the error of his logic since you would have had to have been outside with us taking the photos, but it kind of speaks to how well you multi-​task and how unin­tru­sive you are too.

I think someone with 2 assis­tants would have been hard pres­sed to get the same cove­rage. I will write more later because I have so many thoughts on how great you are for about 1,000 reasons!

Again, you did such an ama­zing job with the pho­tos. I’m so, so glad we went with you as our pho­to­grapher. If I can ever be a refe­rence or help pro­mote you in any way, please let me know! ~Sukey
