I absolutely love photographing weddings. And seeing all the fun and love and planning that you’ve been working on come to life. And a Winter Exeter Inn Wedding never disappoints. Brianne & Michael’s wedding had an element I’ve NEVER seen before. Each guest’s table had their own wedding cake. No big singular cake for them …
I remember after our wedding I remembered thinking “What the hell did I do with myself before wedding planning?!” “What did I spend time on!?” – My bride Julia digs deep and explains some of what you might be experiencing after your wedding planning is through.
Rain happens. And there are many sayings about how rain on your wedding day is good luck. While I’m not sure I’m convinced it’s good luck or not, it’s most definitely not something to let ruin your day! It’s the rainy season here in New England. We get the remnants of all the hurricanes and …
Joy, joy and more joy. Those are the three words I would use to describe Terri & Mike. Not just their wedding, but their very essence. We were lucky enough to meet these two at one of our favorite hangs (If you don’t already know, that’s WHYM (and if you’ve never been, you should go)). So …
I’ve seen a lot of weddings at this point. I mean a LOT. We’re in the neighborhood of 300+ at this point. That’s dumbfounding and humbling, for sure. That over 600 people have asked me to photograph them saying I DO. And I’ve seen a lot of what works ok, and what works great, and …
A story of an intimate wedding photograph session in Hartley Reserve Mason, York, Maine For Patty & Richard, their words were romantic, joyous, intimate.  And was it ever!  I’m also going to add in peaceful. The greatness of the ocean couldn’t compete with the greatness of their connection. The moment when they first saw each other, as …
I don’t even know where to begin with this Josiah’s Meeting House Fall Wedding. This event was seven+ years in the making! The beautiful bride’s name is Julia. She and I have history from a time before now. We quickly formed a friendship, based solely on the fact that our middle initial was K (just kidding, …
I’m almost at a loss for words over this Little Harbor Church Portsmouth NH Mombo Wedding. For many reasons, including their dog Winston, in his perfectly matching grey tuxedo. You see, Pam is one of my favorite people. And not just because she has me in her phone as “Melissa my favorite person” (really, she …
Everything about this Intimate NH, Rye St Andrews by the Sea Wedding & Photograph session was perfection, but I have to tell you, I came away with a shoe envy I didn’t know was possible. I’ve had the most fun getting to know Nicole & John over the past year – they flew in from Australia …
When John & Fa first contacted me about their Seacoast Science Center Glamorous Summer Wedding, I was happy to be available. When they mentioned their aesthetic was ‘rustic glitz’ I was even more than excited that I was available! These two just absolutely radiate love and kindness. Getting to know them while they put the …
