Erin & Steve’s tent wedding in Hudson, NH
Don and I photographed Erin and Steve’s tent wedding in Hudson, NH May 22. Erin loves photos! When I get a client who is into photography, I’m always honored that they chose me. Erin made her own photo guest book which had photos of all of her guests! That’s quite an accomplishment. This wedding was a blast. They had an outdoor, tent wedding in a parents backyard in Hudson, NH. There was a humorous moment during the ceremony-everyone could hear an ice cream truck in the distance–Steve didn’t miss a beat–he yelled out, “ice cream!” for a bit of comedy relief right in the middle of the ceremony. We lucked out timing-wise on the portraits too–I flagged down the ice cream truck for a photo. Interesting vehicles aplenty at this wedding. They chartered a pair of school buses to bring guests to and from their hotel. Made for some fun and unusual wedding photos. I learned that one of Erin’s bridesmaids was a neighbor of mine. Small world!
Video of Stephanie and Michael’s Spring Wedding at the Bedford Village Inn
Videographer Dan Kennedy edited and shot this highlight video of Stephanie and Michael’s Spring wedding at the Bedford Village Inn. The couple are veterinarians and running enthusiasts. They picked a great time of year for a Bedford Village Inn wedding, you’ll see lots of flowers in bloom in many of the shots from their outdoor ceremony. I love the video of the fountain as Dan did a rack-focus from the fountain to the couple while they were being photographed for formal portraits.
Eugene & Kseniya’s Brandeis Faculty Club Wedding
We had great sunny, comfortable weather for wedding photography Sunday, May 16 as associate photographer Don Himsel and I headed to the Brandeis University Faculty Club for Eugene and Kseniya’s traditional jewish wedding. They met on JDate and both of their families are from St. Petersburg, Russia, where they weren’t able to have anything but secular activities. So Eugene and Kseniya decided to have a traditional Jewish wedding, complete with Ketubah signing (marriage contract), Chuppah (wedding canopy), the breaking of a glass, and Yichud, the custom of the couple retreating to a private room for 10-20 minutes after the ceremony.
We were especially honored to take part in what was a rare event for their family because of the nature of the customs and politics in their country of origin.
Don and I were pretty excited about the copper-clad backdrop of the Shapiro Campus Center for portrait photography. Check out this slideshow which is a mix of my photos and Don’s from their wedding:
