Courtney and Chris had an amazing, beautiful wedding celebration. There’s something about weddings around Christmas that make me smile just a little more.  This is one of my favorite times of year and being surrounded by a room full of happy people makes it even better. Take a look and try not to smile, I dare you.

When I began photographing weddings, I was younger than my clients, after some time I was the same age and now I’m photographing brides I met when they were ten.  Crazy how that works!  Many, many moons ago I worked with Katie’s mom.  When they reached out about her wedding, I couldn’t believe so much time had passed and that the little girl I had met in the Derry News news room was now old enough to be getting married!  She made an absolutely stunning bride and was glowing from ear to ear all day!  Katie and Charlie were so in tune with one another and so much fun to photograph!  I adored their black and white color scheme.  Everything about their day came together so perfectly and we were honored to be a part of it!!

 I just LOVE autumn in New Hampshire.  We really do live in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Emma and Parker had the most amazing fall day at Loon Mountain. The foliage was breath taking and the air was crisp. Those are my favorite kind of days.  The way these two interacted all day was so heart warming. I didn’t have to give any direction at all, they were so focused on each other.  I never felt like I was “posing” them, just capturing them being them … and they are crazy cute together!

Take a look!

I was totally bawling behind my camera here.

Meredith and Tyler have a storybook history with one another.  We have photographed high school sweethearts before, but this was a first for first grade sweethearts 🙂 They grew up together and spent many childhood days playing and searching the woods for deer antlers. Tyler actually said, in 3rd grade, that he would marry Meredith one day.  He knew back then that she was the only girl for him!  They officially got together when they were 15 and have been together ever since. Their day was a wonderful celebration of their love and we were so happy to be a part of it.

What an amazing day Janice and Mike had for their wedding at Camp Ogontz.  This was our second time photographing a wedding here (the first being Mike’s best man’s wedding a few years ago!) and I seriously consider it a little hidden piece of Heaven on Earth.  From the cabins, to the views, to the barn everything about it is so peaceful and amazing.  It was a perfect fit to Janice and Mike’s laid back, fun-loving personalities.  This venue really lends itself to couples who want a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy the day with family and friends, which is exactly what Janice and Mike did.  It was a privilege to be there to document it.

There is something so special about weddings that take place at private residences.  I love all the personal touches that couples are able to add making the wedding so much more their own.  Laura and Sean got married at her family’s property in Wolfeboro, NH.  After the ceremony the lovely couple, along with their wedding party, hopped into a couple boats for a quick trip around the lake as guests made their way to cocktail hour.  Tables were set up so that guests could all enjoy a view of the lake over dinner followed by a night of dancing in the house.

Thank you so much for including us in your special day!!

What an amazing day Liana and David had for their wedding at Willowdale Estate in Topsfield, Ma.  A bit warm for early September, but in New England, we all know Mother Nature is wildly unpredictable, so a day with no rain and blue skies is a win!  These two were just so much fun to spend the day with.  Both so relaxed and easy going with amazing families and friends.  I’m not sure it gets much better.  We started with a first look in the conservation area next to Willowdale where the light was absolutely heavenly and then met up with bridal party and family to finish up photos before the ceremony.  One of the (many) benefits of doing a first look is that once the ceremony was over, Liana and David were able to join right in with their guests for cocktail hour.  It’s great to get that extra time to say hello and give some extra hugs.  From cocktail hour they went into the reception under the tent where the band Young Love and The Thrills completely rocked the party.

When the bride walks down the isle to the Star Wars theme song and the groom’s vows include bits of Game of Thrones, Star Wars and Star Trek you know you  have a pretty amazing couple destined for big things.  They may never settle the debate of which is better … Star Wars or Star Trek but I have no doubt that they will take the galaxy by storm either way!  thank you so much for including us in your special day!

We are just loving all the time we get to spend at Loon Mountain this summer! Next summer is looking to be much of the same. It has fast become one of our favorite places to be and Kathryn and Jeremy’s big day was no different. The weather was looking a little iffy but they decided to go for the mountain top ceremony which allowed them to get married literally in the clouds. It’s such an amazing thing to see. Their vows were so touching, written by them, from the heart. Jeremy almost made me cry with his words. Their love was palpable to everyone in attendence. Since we didn’t have much of a view at the top, we quickly jumped on the Gondola after the ceremony for some photos down by the river followed by the reception in the Octogon lodge with DJ Jeremy from Get Down Tonight Entertainment.

Thank you to the lovely couple for choosing us to document such a special day! We can’t wait to see where life brings you next.

XOXO

We had a great time spending the day with Bridget, Matt and their families!  The day started out with some getting ready fun at Manchester Country Club for the girls and the Manchester Radisson for the guys.    I absolutely loved the classic look of the guys in their tuxes and the girls in their navy blue dresses with the pink accent flowers.  (Done by the fabulous PJ!) The ceremony followed at Saint Elizabeth Seton Church in Bedford, which was Bridget’s families church as she was growing up.  Once the two were officially Mr. and Mrs. we all head back to the Country Club for some more photos and the reception.  The band Wellfleet provided excellent entertainment and everyone was still dancing the night away when we left.  I don’t think they could have had a more perfect day!  (well, maybe a few degrees cooler for the guys … but they were troopers!)
