In late September I photographed Meghan and Nels’ wedding at Brooksby Farm and Smith Barn in Peabody, Massachusetts. A few notes about their wedding: Queen Anne’s Lace was a theme, and it was used on their invitations and in their floral arrangements. Meghan’s sister Kate is also a wedding photographer and was married just a few weeks before Meghan. Some of my favorite photos are of the two sisters together.

You can view many more photos from Meghan and Nels’ beautiful wedding here.

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.

Guests traveled to the wedding ceremony by trolley.
