Karen and Chris: Part One
So last night was just a teaser.
I will be posting this wedding in a series as I make my way through my favorite images. Below is a sampling of mostly details. I have a hard time keeping these to a reasonable number because I was so into her details! The flowers and dress and shoes, the venue, the hair, the flower girls! So many great shots of her beautiful details!
The bridesmaids looked awesome in their chocolate brown dresses:
One bridesmaid was a new Mommy. She looked amazing and her sweet baby was just 4 weeks old! So cute!
Devon preps. It was so fun to see Devon--it's been years. We grew up on the same street and played together when we were little!
Just a cool shot of "The Scene." Lots of activity as everyone gets ready:
How 'bout these flowers? My sister and I were ooh-ing and aah-ing all day about these beauties. I must give props to Clementine Floral for their exquisite work:
And these?
Steph, a bride I shot last year, gets her glam on. Foxy Lady!
Her girls weigh in on the lip gloss. It's a group effort!
Nothing like a little bubbly to set the mood!
Karen sees herself in her dress for the first time. Perfection.

Karen + Chris: Wedding Sneak Peek
My sister and I traveled to the Cape a few weeks back to photograph the wedding of Karen and Chris at the amazing Ocean Edge Resort in Brewster. We went to high school with Karen and bumped into her at a wedding last summer, where we first met Chris. They weren't engaged at the time, but when Karen emailed me a few months later to say that they were planning their own wedding, I was so honored and happy that they asked me to be their photographer!
The day was perfect. Well--the weather was not, as Hurricane Gustav was playing with us all day long, but other than some serious downpours and some wind, I'd say the whole affair was right out of a fairy tale.
Karen looked amazing. Her dress, her shoes, her hair--I just loved her style. I have lots of favorites to share but for tonight I am going to post just one. I know--that's a terrible thing to do! But it is the cutest image and I have to force myself to get off the computer and go to bed!
More to come soon, I promise...

Alicia and Craig: Part Two
So, here's my next batch! I can't wait to have more time to work on the photos from Alicia and Craig's wedding. I am loving these. This has been a particularly busy week for me so I am working on these in spurts--usually really late at night--but I am grabbing the shots that really stand out to me and playing with those first.
How sweet is this flower girl?
Alicia has great taste. I loved her details. Simple. Pretty. Pink and green.
These bags were placed on tables for their candy bar! Let me tell you--it was a hit. People of all ages were filling up on yummy treats. And going back for seconds!
This is a shot I grabbed of them just after their ceremony. Brand new married couple!
Alicia arranged for a horse and carriage to give them a ride around campus after their ceremony. It was a total surprise for Craig. There was champagne. It was perfect. I think it was great for them to have some time to themselves right after their ceremony to just soak it in and enjoy each other's company.
Here are some images of Alicia and Craig alone before we joined the cocktail hour:
I like grabbing shots when people are not looking at me. Love Alicia's "cool stare" in this one:
This was a neat little spot where we waited while they were putting the finishing touches together in the reception room:
First Dance:
I am loving black and white for this wedding. I just feel like it is really working for their images. In many cases I feel like the emotion and beauty of a moment is much stronger when the image is black and white. Is it just me?
Alicia and her Dad. This was the sweetest Father/Daughter dance. They had me crying! Alicia held on to her Dad like she would never let go. The tears just streamed down her face. It was truly a beautiful moment.
Craig and his mother. I love the second shot where she just closes her eyes and lays her head on his chest. So sweet.
I hope you two are enjoying these photos as much as I am! It's so fun to re-live the day as I work my way through the images. Enjoy!

Alicia and Craig at The Hotchkiss School: Part One
Just over a week ago was the incredible wedding of Alicia and Craig. What a day! Let me warn you in advance--I have a lot of favorites! I think the best way to do this is to split my posts into parts so I don't overwhelm my viewers!
We met up with Alicia, her nine bridesmaids, her parents, her aunt and her adorable flower girl at her parents' house. It was a busy scene, to say the least. It was an assembly line of hair and make-up but everyone was in good spirits--even when the skies opened up and the thunder roared.
Alicia was the most relaxed, happy and beautiful bride.
Here are some detail shots from the Getting Ready portion of the day:
Alicia's dress was just amazing. (Wait till you see it on her!)
Something borrowed:
Okay. This was the BEST reaction I've yet to witness of a bride putting on her dress. The moment the dress was on her body, Alicia was overwhelmed with emotion. It was so moving! I think she had the whole room in tears!
Gorgeous!
Her sister, Nicole, does the honors:
Okay. I don't want poor Craig to feel totally left out! Here are a few more favorites:
Craig and his Best Man, his brother, Eric:
This is one of my favorites from the day! This is Eric peeking out from the back room of the chapel as he and the groom wait for the ceremony to start. I was pretty far away, but luckily had my 70-200 ready to grab it:
A quiet moment from the ceremony:
The Guys:
I love their faces in this shot. Such happiness!
As they walk off, the new Mr. and Mrs.:
Okay. I am tempted to keep going, but you will have to stay tuned for the next installment!
Congratulations, Alicia and Craig! Your wedding was amazing! I had the best time with you and your family and friends! Thank you so much for allowing me to play such an important part in your wedding day. I hope to see you both soon...
