featured in boston weddings

i was so excited to see that laurie and john's city hall elopement was featured in the latest issue of boston weddings. below are just a few of the spreads that were featured in the magazine.

karen + mark married

date: 7.4.09
ceremony: park street church

the focus of this post is to show how insanely creative and fun this couple is.

to begin, karen MADE her bridesmaids dresses, accessories, and added incredible detail to her already unbelievable dress. the feathers AND bead work are her doing...

i think this dress wins the largest dress ever award.

the feathers that karen made to go on the bridesmaids dresses. aw.e.some.

karen and mark did a great job of mixing traditional with off the charts non traditional elements throughout their entire day. see exibit a - dry ice during the ceremony!

first moments as husband and wife.

we shot in the graveyard next to the church. cause why not?

anna + bruno married

there were many things i loved about anna and bruno's wedding. the location, the beautiful tree they were married under, their intimate group of family and friends, the way they looked at each other throughout the day... i could go on and on, but you can see for yourself:

anna is an incredible children's author and illustrator - you can check out her work here: http://annaalter.com so for the wedding, she added some fun, personal touches like these signs that pointed the guests in the right direction:

because sometimes we need reminders to simply have fun:

anna's mother had their friends and family make origami cranes to decorate the yard:

pre ceremony activities:

sine + ish engagement session

sine and ish are getting married this weekend, and because it rained EVERYDAY in june, this was our first opportunity to do an outdoor shoot! these two made it totally worth the wait because the location they choose was perfectly lit.

when i asked what they liked to do together, sine told me they liked playing games together. so we found a cool outdoor fireplace for them to play in front of.

raquel + steve

ceremony: boston city hall
date: 6.16.09

i had the opportunity to photograph raquel and steve's city hall wedding yesterday, and it was awesome!! the two of them chose to elope and have a private ceremony, which was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes. i LOVE private ceremonies. after they made it official, we walked around the area and grabbed some after wedding interactions.
