Maria and Bill’s Wedding at the Bedford Village Inn

So the Bedford Village Inn happens to be the venue I’ve photographed the most events this year-4 weddings in all. The latest was Maria and Bill’s wedding. Maria’s mom surprised the couple with a horse-drawn carriage to deliver Maria and her father to the ceremony and for the newly married couple to take a ride around the property after their ceremony. Bill bravely proposed to Maria in front of a crowd at Faneuil Hall in Boston. Becca, my intern from MassArt for the summer, attended her first wedding as my assistant and to try her skills as a second photographer.

Julie and David’s wedding at Zorvino Vineyard

I was lucky enough to have the July 4th weekend off and I took the opportunity to visit Montreal with my brother and cousins, but before I left, I photographed Julie and David’s wedding in Sandown, NH at Zorvino Vineyard July 3, 2009. Heavy rain meant we couldn’t take full advantage of Zorvino’s amazing backdrop. The ceremony was inside and formals were cut short, but we all made the best of it and had a great time. Julie and Dave are big country fans, so their DJ, Eric Buford accomodated!

Trista and Robert’s vows renewal at Belknap Mills

First post ever featuring one of my associate’s work! I brought associate photographers and a videographer on board back in March and they’ve all shot events for me this year and have events booked next year too. This is a slideshow featuring Nicolaus’ photography of Trista and Robert’s vows renewal at Belknap Mills in Laconia, NH, June 27, 2009. Rob is a machinist for a company that makes aircraft parts and Trista is a dance instructor. I personally photographed their family portrait session in August at Castle in the Clouds in Moultonborough, NH, and I’ll be photographing Trista’s trash the dress session in Nashua in October.

Kerri and Derek’s Wedding at the Atkinson Country Club

I photographed Kerri and Derek’s Wedding at the Atkinson Country Club Friday June 19, 2009. I also photographed their engagement session, (you can see that here) which always makes photography on the wedding day go smoother since we’ve all had a chance to work together.

Although, they are a fun couple as you can see from the photos, so being comfortable in front of the camera was no problem!

Jeff and Tara’s Wedding at the Ashworth

I got to photograph Tara and Jeff’s wedding ceremony at my old home town, Newburyport, at the Unitarian Universalist Church June 20, 2009. Tara’s father was a former Lowell Sun photographer and by coincidence, I was a photographer there too! We were able to talk shop on the limo ride to the ceremony and to the waterfront for formal photos. Then we headed to Hampton Beach in NH for their reception at Ashworth by the Sea on Ocean Boulevard.

Amy and David’s Sky Meadow wedding

I photographed Amy and David’s wedding at Sky Meadow in Nashua June 7, 2009. My associate photographer, Beth Donnell, joined me and she photographed the groom and his guys getting ready at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Nashua.

In Amy’s words:
He’s 6′4″, She’s 5′2″.
He’s lived all over the country, She was born and raised in the same house.
He’s the king of procrastinating, She’s the queen of planning.
He likes excitement, She likes routine.
He loves anything chocolate, She loves anything fruity.
He is a video game junkie, She is a television junkie.
With all these differences, there is one gigantic similarity that ties them together…
They are in love and each other’s best friend.
On December 23, 2007 He asked and She said YES.

As a nice tribute, Amy and her sister Melissa gave a speech in honor of their parents who celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary exactly one month after the wedding.

Lindsey and Jason’s Bedford Village Inn Wedding

I was back at the Bedford Village Inn in Bedford, NH June 6th as Jason and Lindsey’s wedding photographer. Love the red lighting, flowers and lipstick-lots of color! Jason is a singer for the band, Necessary Roughness.

 

Melissa & Adam’s Engagement Session at the Boston Public Garden

I met up with Melissa and Adam at the Boston Public Garden May 17, 2009 to photograph their engagement session. We had a memorable, funny moment–no sooner had I warned them to watch their belongings when an old man came up and started taking their nice leather jackets. He was busted and decided better of it! Added to the excitement of the day, that’s for sure. Their wedding reception was July 31st at Promises to Keep in Derry, NH. Still working on the photos from the wedding. Here’s a few from the engagement in the meantime:
