Kelly + Ryan – Mountain View Grand Winter Wedding – NH Wedding Photography
READ MOREI was so excited to get the call for Kelly and Ryan’s wedding. I met Kelly a couple of years ago when I photographed her brother’s wedding. She just happened to be dating Ryan who I went to middle school with. I love when worlds collide, so when they got engaged and reached out I was thrilled!
The duo love snowmobiling, so a winter wedding was a given. When couples choose a winter wedding, there is always the hope for that perfect snowfall, but Mother Nature doesn’t always cooperate. She must have a soft spot for these two because she delivered the most amazing backdrop for their big day! They really couldn’t have asked for anything more perfect.
A huge thank you to the following vendors for making the day even that much more amazing!

Dianne + Mark – Omni Mount Washington Resort – Winter Wedding
READ MOREWhat an amazing way to close out our wedding season in 2015! Dianne, Mark and their families were all truly amazing to work with. Their wedding day was unseasonably warm which allowed us to get outside and take advantage of the beautiful scenery the Mount Washington Hotel has to offer without freezing our toes off!
After photos they were joined by their families to make it official. I may have even gotten choked up at their ceremony when they each read love letters to the other. It was one of the most beautiful ceremonies I have ever had the privilege of documenting!
Thank you both so much for trusting us with your special day. We wish you many years of love and laughter 🙂
Also a big shout out to my second photographer, Bruce Preston.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Dianne and Mark looked at each other just like this ALL day long!
Madison+Ben – Church Landing Wedding – New Hampshire Wedding Photography
READ MOREMadison and Ben were just the best way to close out the busy season for us! Anyone who has followed my blog for any amount of time know that I used to frequent The Granite Rose before it sadly closed this year. Ben’s family owned and operated The Rose for as long as I have been a photographer (in fact one of my first big weddings when I was brand new was there!) and we always looked forward to seeing them when we had weddings booked there. They were sadly missed this year, so we were so excited to see them all again for Madison and Ben’s big day! I knew that I was going to be in for a day full of fun and laughter for sure. Getting to meet Madison’s family the morning of the wedding only confirmed that for me.
It was the most picture perfect day overlooking Lake Winnipesaukee with the foliage glowing in the back ground. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything more!
It was truly an honor to be chosen to document your day, especially from a family who have seen a lot of photographers in action. I am humbled and thankful to have been able to be a part of something so special.
Mike an I wish you many years of love and laughter.
XOXO

Jodi & Joseph – Mountain Top Inn and Resort – Vermont Wedding Photographer
READ MOREJodi and Joseph had a beautiful intimate wedding at the Mountain Top Inn and Resort in Chittenden, Vermont. They got married with just their immediate families in front of the most amazingly breathtaking view. Mother Nature treated us with a little snow the night before which made for a chilly (OK … it was cold) day, but they lit a fire and kept eachother warm. After the ceremony everyone gathered back inside for some appetizers, cocktails and a nice quiet dinner prepared by one of the resort chefs.
We were honored to join you and wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!!
Vanessa + Jason – Stonehedge Inn and Spa – Massachusetts Wedding Photographer
READ MOREMany, many years ago, when I was a young 20-something-baby newspaper photographer I met Josh who was also a newbie photographer with a love for photographing UNH hockey games. I would see him when I was on assignment at the games and we became photos buddies. Fast forward many, many years to the future and Josh becomes roomates with Jason. Jason also shares a love of hockey. Off to a Frozen Four they go and Jason meets Vanessa. The rest is history. Since Josh was not able to photograph the wedding (a hard task to accomplish when you are also a groomsman) he sent them my way, (THANKS FOR THAT!!!!) I guess is you back track, my relationship with Jason and Vanessa also had it’s roots in hockey 🙂
It was such a perfect fall day and a perfect venue. The foliage was some of the best we saw this year. Something about foliage and white picket fences gives me the warm and fuzzies!
Thank you so much Vanessa and Jason for including us in our special day! I can’t imagine it having worked out any other way!
Another HUGE thank you to the other vendors we had the pleasure of working with!

Megan + Justin – The Estate at Moraine Farm, Beverly, Mass – Massachusettes Wedding Photographer
READ MOREMegan and Justin’s day was full of firsts for us! Being a wedding photographer, we tend to visit the same locations over and over again. I always take that as a challenge to not get comfortable and to find new and unique ways to see the same location with each couple … but … I always get a little excited when we are going to new locations because it’s like a blank canvas to me! These two provided us with the most beautiful locations (and people!) to photograph! We started the day with a first look and some photos at the Rose Garden in Lynch Park. Oh. My. Goodness!!! We were blown away by this place. It sits right on the water, has some really cool architectural elements and still had some amazing flowers in bloom. Justin proposed to Megan on a bench in this park, so it also held some extra special meaning to them. After we finished photos at the park, we went over to their venue, The Estate at Moraine Farm, where we continued to be impressed with the scenery. We have never been there before and are looking forward to hopefully going back in the future.
Thank you Megan and Justin for inviting us to be a part of your wedding! We had a great time!!!

Kassie + Adam – Zorviono Vineyard Wedding – New Hampshire Wedding Photographer
READ MOREKassie and Adam are two peas in a pod. They just work! During their first look they both bit their lip the same way during the anticipation of seeing eachother for the first time. It was cuteness overload! Poor Adam woke up with a terrible cold the morning of the wedding, but he didn’t let that stop him from having a great time and loving on his bride. (Not sure if Kassie ended up with that cold a few days later?)
We started the day getting ready at Zorvino Vineyard and after the first look had a great time walking around taking photos, laughing with family and wedding party (and trying to stay warm! brrrr it was cold!). Then it was over to United Methodit Church in Londonderry to say I do! It was a beautiful ceremony which ended with the couple being suprised by family with a chauffeured ride in style back to the vineyard to celebrate their new marriage!
Thank you for including us in your big day!

See the lip biting? SO CUTE!

Ashley + Jared – Manchester Country Club Wedding – NH Wedding Photography
READ MOREWe see all kinds of weddings, and it can be easy to let the stress of the day get in the way of what the day is really about … not for Ashley and Jared! Even when the ceremony before theirs ran late causing their ceremony to start late, they were calm, relaxed and knew that by the end of the day they would be husband and wife … even if it was 30 minutes later than planned. What is 30 minutes when you have forever to look forward to?
After their beautiful ceremony at Saint Marie’s in Manchester, everyone head over to Manchester Country Club for the reception. This was our first time there since the renovations a few years ago and we were so impressed at the new look! The reception room is so bright and elegant! It was the perfect setting for Ashley and Jared to cerebrate their new marriage with family and friends. We are so excited to have been able to play a roll in such a special day!
Here’s to many more years!

Athena + Tim – Zorvino Vineyard – NH Fall Wedding Photography
READ MOREAthena and Tim are just two of those people who have a “happy aura” that surrounds them. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, spend 5 minutes with them and you’ll get it. Not only is their bond with each other undeniable, but so is the closeness they share with their family and friends.
Athena is an amazing fitness/food blogger (check it out www.fitnessandfeta.com) and her passion for healthy living, working out and good food is inspiring. I wish I had a fraction of her dedication and talent! Seriously, check out some of her food posts!! Aside from the obvious benefits of living a healthy life style, she looked AH-MAZING in her wedding dress! (Tim rocked his suit too 😉 …)
A huge thank you to you both for including us in your day! We had a GREAT time!
Thank you to some of our favorite wedding vendors who also played a part in making the day so fabulous!

Brittany+James-Deerfield NH Rustic Wedding
READ MOREBrittany and James had my favorite kind of wedding. It was full of personal touches, character and most importantly LOTS of laughter! It was impossible not to smile around these two. My cheeks hurt at the end of the day! Their wedding was at Brittany’s father’s house and the property couldn’t have been more perfect! Brittany and James even took us on a walk through the wood to show us a great little stream where the light was coming through like magic! (insert drooling photographer here!) Everyone was still dancing and laughing when we left (even though Brittany and James had to get up at 4 am for their flight to New Orleans!) It was a truly special day and we are thankful to have been a part of it.
