Last weekend I photographed the amazing wedding of Kristina and Toby down in Rhode Island. First I started at the Biltmore, where Kristina was getting ready. She and Toby had decided to do their formals pictures before the ceremony, so the three of us jumped in the limo and headed to Moses Brown–the school where they both went…and fell in love. We had a great and relaxing time walking around the school and seeing where they first met. I can’t believe they know the exact spot–how cool is that (see pic below). Then we met their families at Prospect Park for formals, then to the ceremony. After the ceremony the three of us were dropped off on a little street in Providence where their favorite crepe shop is. And yes…they ate a crepe! Yay! : ) Then off to the Biltmore for an amazing cocktail hour on the terrance and a lovely reception in the second-floor ballroom. Congratulations!

This is the spot where they met!

(Disclaimer–this was their idea!!! haha)

(Kristina–a perfect figure skating jump! : ) )

She walked halfway down the aisle with her brother then her dad met them for the other half.

mmm. Crepes!

Toby surprised Kristina by playing Ben Folds’ “The Luckiest”…it was so sweet!

I love how bright this cake is!

After a few week break, I had an amazing wedding this past Saturday! Sarah and I went to high school together and she contacted me last year about photographing her wedding to Tom. When I heard that it was going to be on an island off of the coast of Portland and that I had to take a ferry there, I was hooked! I couldn’t wait for the day–and it certainly didn’t disappoint! I had so many images to choose from!

The wedding took place on Diamond Cove, which is on Great Diamond Island. Sarah and Tom rent a house on another nearby island, Peaks, so this area is really special to them. You can get to Diamond Cove either by ferry from Portland or by water taxi. The ceremony was held in the art gallery and the reception was in a tent catered by the restaurant.

Tom seeing Sarah for the first time. : )

It was a little “dusty” in the room after the ceremony (or was it allergies?)!

This was right before it, well, poured. To say I got a little wet would be an understatement (my umbrella went to saving the bride!)! Everyone, though, was still in great spirits! The three flower girls were adorable!

Tom proposed in this gazebo!

They rented a private ferry to get their guests back to Portland after the reception (or to continue to celebrate around the harbor). Sarah fiddles and her group played beautiful Irish music on the trip. It was awesome and so unique!

On Monday I was able to photograph my friend’s new baby, Tal! I did an outdoor maternity shoot a few months ago, so it was amazing to meet the little guy finally!

Last weekend I had a wonderful time photographing Max and his family near the Charlestown Navy Yard on a beautiful summer day!

This was the third time the I have photographed this family–once when Ryan was about 3, once when they welcomed Angelina, and now when Ryan is 6 and Angelina 2! It has been really great to be able to see them grow over the last couple of years! When I photograph children, I really want to capture them just being children! So for this shoot, we played outside, read some books, looked at shells from Cape Cod, just to name a few!

(She likes to follow whatever her big brother is doing!)

Sometimes big brothers forget how strong they are! Squish!

Angelina really wanted to show me the shells she collected!

A quiet moment…for about one second!

She kindly requested that I get her a Spanish book (or five!).
