Catherine and Ian were recently married at the BU Marsh Chapel and had their reception at the Boston College Club. I think my favorite part of their wedding was the Korean Paebaek ceremony. I will let the photos speak for themselves — yes, it was a photographer’s dream.

A few details about their wedding: Emilie of Pink Orchid Weddings coordinated their wedding day. Catherine and her bridesmaids’ hair and makeup were styled by Caitlin Murphy. Nate Oinonen of White Label DJs was the DJ.

I can’t begin to express how much I loved Quintana and Jonathan’s City Hall wedding in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Quintana hired me over the phone while she was living in Japan. We were only able to meet a few weeks before their wedding.

Why do I love these photographs so much? It is the people in them. There was so much love, laughter, creativity, and openness from Jonathan, Quintana, their families and friends. I hope these photographs help you to enjoy their wedding as much as I did.

I recently photographed Katie and Doug’s wedding at St. Mary’s Church in Charlestown and the State Room in Boston. A few notes about their wedding: Emilie Chang from Pink Orchid Weddings did a beautiful job coordinating. Demiche Beauty provided hair styling. Makeup was by Katrina Hess. The band Men In Black played at their reception.

I want to thank my good friend and second shooter, Li Ward of Fat Orange Cat Studio. I always have so much fun working with her! This set of photos represents a true collaboration between us.

Sometimes you take a leap of faith, and one of those leaps is definitely marriage. Lindsey and Wilson took a leap of faith when they hired me sight unseen, over the phone about a year ago. They were living in Athens, Georgia so we were only able to meet in person a few weeks ago. They finally had their wedding this past weekend at the Old North Church and their reception at the Lenox Hotel. This wedding was Old World, classic, historic Boston.

I have a ways to go with editing photographs from this wedding — these are just my top picks that I quickly pulled. I wanted to get Wilson and Lindsey some preview photos before they left for their two month honeymoon! They’ll spend the next eight weeks backpacking across Europe and India.

View from the 11th floor suite at the Lenox Hotel.Lindsey wore a Vera Wang gown. Beautiful!They had tons of great calligraphy at this wedding — from these letterpress invitations and cards to the hand-lettered escort cards at the reception. Monogrammed, embroidered handkerchiefs were among Lindsey’s gifts to her bridesmaids.A photograph of Lindsey’s grandmother, who was there in spirit, below at right. A bridesmaid and stylist Caitlin Murphy place the veil over Lindsey’s face.Here’s where I almost lost it with the tears. Lindsey and her parents arrived at the church in a 1937 Cadillac. When the car pulled up and all the tourists were cheering and snapping photos, and the bagpiper was playing… I really had to fight back tears! It was all very dramatic! Where it all started: “One if by land, two if by sea.” The Old North Church still uses brass candle chandeliers, which were first lit on Christmas day in 1724. Wilson and Lindsey are both of Scottish descent, and a bagpiper played as people entered and left the church. The tower at right, below, is the steeple where Paul Revere arranged to have lanterns hung.We headed to the Boston Public Garden for some portraits after the wedding ceremony. I didn’t have to give them direction for their portraits below. They were so happy to be married! The wedding reception took place in the Lenox’s Dome Room. Wilson and Lindsey welcome guests to the reception. Behind them, Florencia Gonzalez band.Thank you Wilson and Lindsey for letting me be part of your wonderful and beautiful wedding day!

Last week on a rainy Friday, I photographed Cynthia and Rene’s wedding in Harvard Square. Their ceremony was at their bakery, Hi Rise Bread Company on Brattle St. The reception was at Upstairs on the Square.

This wedding was literally three days ago, but I just couldn’t wait to share these photos!
