Traveling is one of my favorite things- expecially when its back to a place where I have lots of friends! This past weekend I traveled to Texas for my friends Miranda & Tyler's wedding. Here is just a taste from their picture perfect wedding.
Is your mouth watering yet?? Stay tuned- more to come tomorrow.
A lot of photographers talk about having a connection with their clients, having them become friends. Well, I am lucky enough to be shooting a wedding this weekend for someone who has been a friend since before she was even dating her hubby-to-be. Miranda is a wedding photographer with Image Forward Photography. She and I shot many weddings together during the two plus years I worked with Image Forward, including one that had 30 some odd people in the bridal party. I'm very glad Miranda's bridal party isn't quite that big and I feel so lucky to be spending her wedding day with her.
This image was taken back when I was living in TX. We decided to have a play day and take some fun photos. This is my favorite image that Debbie took of Miranda and I. I miss the ladies of Image Forward and can't wait to spend a few days with them!!!
I will be back late Sunday night and will have tons of beautiful images from Miranda & Tyler's wedding to share.
I'm a die hard Red Sox fan- for those of you who didn't already know. I've been to a lot of Red Sox games in my life. I've been to play off games and even flew from TX to go to the two home world series games in 2007. I also had a coop job with the Red Sox in college where I attended 15 or so games in both the 2004 and 2005 seasons and photographed the games from the third base photo pit. You could say I'm pretty lucky. Well, I was lucky again on Sunday. My parents had 4 tickets to the Red Sox vs. Kansas City Royals game. They gave Silas and I two of the tickets to go with them as a Christmas Gift. In the 85+ degree sun we watched Lester pitch a great game and enjoyed watching the sox pull off a win!
Everyone in our section doing the wave!
Silas and I and my parents and I. Enjoying the beautiful day!!!
I love Fenway Park. I've often thought about getting married there someday... yeah told ya I was a die hard fan ;)
These are my awesome parents!!!! Thank you Mom & Dad for a great Christmas gift that we got to enjoy with the two of you on a beautiful day at the ball park.
Saturday marked the true kick off to my wedding season. It was a stunningly beautiful day with blue skies, bright sun and a happy couple walking down the isle. My awesome assistant, Lindsey was with me and we started this wedding season with a bang. The first time I met with Lauren & Matt I instantly felt a connection. Their smiles told me in the first few seconds that not only were we going to be friends but that this was going to be a fun wedding. Living in Mass and planning a wedding in Jackson, NH isn't easy. We tried to fit in a quick engagement session on the thursday before the wedding but with so much to once they were here in town we decided to do a post wedding shoot another time. They had a few requests for photo locations (Jackson Falls & the covered bridge) which sounded great to me!
The afternoon started at the Whitney's Inn with Lauren getting her hair and make-up done by one of her maids of honor. Who, by the way, did a STUNNING job!
Just look at this girl... Lauren you are beautiful.
Lauren had beautiful spring flowers done by Dutch Bloemen Winkel. Carrie even included a butterfly which has a sentimental value to Lauren. The Jackson Community Church was the perfect location for this fun couple, with its traditional New England Charm and the always charming and funny Rev. Pojen Lee.
I think Lauren was pretty excited when she saw Matt standing at the alter waiting for her, don't ya think?
Ringing the bell to let the world know that they are Man and Wife!!! Lauren was all smiles.
Some of the most beautiful bridesmaids I've ever seen.
Their 'get away' car was a classic t-bird.
After the ceremony we headed over to the covered bridge for a few group photos.
On the way back to The Whitney's Inn for the reception we stopped at Jackson Falls. The bugs were horrible so we made it a quick stop but these images were so worth the bug bites!
A few adirondack chair shots were a must!
I have never seen a couple this relaxed on their wedding day. It was so nice to see them enjoying every minute!
The Shovel Handle Pub at The Whitney's Inn was decorated with greens, pinks and oranges.
These are probably the best dancing images I've ever taken! The light and the couple were perfect!
I had so much fun with Lauren & Matt on their wedding day. This was the perfect way to start my wedding season. I was reminded how truly lucky I am to be a part of the happiest day of peoples lives. A day full of smiles, laughter and love. Who could ask for anything more?
Lauren & Matt were married on Saturday at The Jackson Community Church and had a reception following at The Whitney Inn in Jackson, NH. Here is just a taste from their stunning wedding!!!
