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! And there was a bit of sports rivalry with one big New York fan in particular! Watch the slideshow to see how it played out!

I photographed Rene and Jeff’s wedding at the Danversport Yacht Club in Danvers, MA May 30, 2009. Can’t beat north shore weddings in the Boston area in late May before the heat sets in! Turns out Jeff is a pretty good singer-he belted out Aerosmith’s “What it Takes” and got the crowd of guests whipped into a frenzy. Their DJ, Curtis Knight, took a photo of me on a deck above photographing the recessional:

Entourage

Igor is accompanied by his groomsmen for a walk on the beach at his wedding reception at the Wequassett Inn and Resort on Pleasant Bay in Chatham, MA.  Igor bought suits as a gift for the groomsmen.  They wore beige suits for the beach theme wedding, and with the intent that the guys could use the suits for other occasions afterwards.

Beach Kiss

Ashley and Igor share a kiss on the beach at their wedding reception at the Wequassett Inn and Resort on Pleasant Bay in Chatham, MA.  Wequasset has a couple locations for weddings– Igor and Ashley’s reception and ceremony were held at the resort’s Outer Bar & Grille.  People often ask how I got this photograph.  No, I wasn’t swooping in on a helicopter.  There’s a pier at the resort that is fairly high and sticks out into the water quite a ways.

Laughs for Two

A couple share some laughs while dancing at Ashley and Igor’s wedding reception at the Wequassett Inn and Resort on Pleasant Bay in Chatham, MA.  Wequasset has a couple locations for weddings– Igor and Ashley’s reception and ceremony were held at the resort’s Outer Bar & Grille.

A Celtic Handfasting Ceremony

I photographed Brad and Jennifer’s Celtic handfasting May 1, 2008 in Center Harbor, NH. This will probably rank as one of the more unusual weddings I’ll shoot — all the guests wore period costumes and the event included a jousting tournament. No one got seriously hurt. Kidding of course…..The caterer was Hart’s Turkey Farm out of Meredith. They are awesome! This is the second time I’ve been able to partake in their offerings. The first was after I climbed Mt. Washington for Seek the Peak 2007, a hike-a-thon to raise funds for the Mt. Washington Observatory.
