Katie & Doug's Wedding at St. Mary's Church & The State Room, Boston

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.

Kristen & Kevin’s Weddding at St. Gregory’s Church & the Westin

With the year coming to a close I have  only one more wedding to process but at least four to blog! I also have some winter engagement sessions coming up, including an outdoor  night shoot with Christmas lights. So even though it’s technically not wedding season in Boston, the blog will be well-stocked over the next few months.:)

Kristen and Kevin’s wedding reception at the Westin had a lounge, nighttime, city feel. Which is kind of how I’m feeling at this time of year with these short days and long nights. Their Catholic ceremony at St. Gregory’s included Filipino traditions (veil pinning) from Kristen’s family.

Julie + Fran's North Shore Wedding

I photographed so many North Shore weddings this season; probably more than I photographed in Boston. For those of you who aren’t familiar with Boston’s North Shore, it’s a very pretty area with quaint little New England towns like Salem, Peabody and Beverly.

Julie and Fran are really funny and truly nice people. Fran’s daily facebook updates might be the funniest of any of my facebook contacts. And Julie is one of the sweetest, most thoughtful clients I’ve worked with. You remember their engagement session from last winter? It was possibily the coldest weather in which I’ve ever photographed. During the session I said: “I really wish I had some fingerless gloves.” A few weeks later a package arrived in the mail from Julie — fingerless gloves!

Julie and Fran’s wedding ceremony was at St. Thomas the Apostle Church in Peabody and their reception was held at the Nahant Country Club.

This cake topper was on the kitchen table at Julie’s parent’s house. I think it might be from her parent’s wedding cake — looks kind of retro. But I just thought it was so nice! It reminds me of my parent’s cake topper that I used to stare at as a kid.
