I had the honor of photographing another beautiful wedding at a beautiful private residence! Zenobia was stunning and did not stop smiling all day! I love these happy brides! Jay was very handsome and they made a perfect match! The location was just exquisite with the most perfect beautiful tree (complete with tree swing) that they said their vows under and the grapevines and walls where we did their formals! What a beautiful spot for pictures! It was extremely sunny during their vows, but as the sun set after there was lots of beautiful light! Zenobia’s and Jay’s families were loads of fun and ready to have a lot of fun dancing and singing to the music by one of the Platters lead singers, Tony Funches (fabulous by the way)! It was a really fun wedding and even the kids (and let me tell you, there were oodles of beautiful babies at this wedding) were having a blast all the way through to the ice cream sundaes at the end! Here is a quick peek of their special day!

I’m so excited to share this peek with you at Tara and Ty’s wedding! First off Tara is the most fun person ever! She’s fully of energy and she loves details! Ty made a handsome groom, what more can I say, seriously a fun wedding, even if it was extremely hot! Tara is like your long lost best friend from the first time you meet her, I really enjoyed their wedding! This wedding involved beautiful colors, the most beautiful flowers, peacocks and peacock feathers, lots of locations to shoot formals at and even Captain Clam Cakes, and a cannon, a carousel, a beach, and even a choreographed dance, what’s better than that!? The reception was held at the Cultural Center in Fall River, what a beautiful, classic venue! So much I want to share with you, so be ready for an extra large amount of eye candy here!














Tara and Ty your wedding was exquisite! Thank you for allowing me to share in your joy! I’ll be in touch soon with your full edited gallery! Hope you enjoy these for now! xo

I had the opportunity to photography a beautiful wedding in the breathtaking Berkshires, Massachusetts at the luxurious Melpal Manor and Spa and rustic Gedney Farm. It was such an incredible location, far away from everything! Sadly the weather did not cooperate for the outdoor ceremony that was planned, but the ceremony happily took place inside the rustic barn! Everything was so well planned and just perfect! Julie was a stunning bride and her groom, Andy, was just charming! I met up with Julie at the historic manor house for her getting ready photos and there she and Andy had their first look, we did some family photos then moved on to Gedney Farm for the ceremony and reception. Here is a peak from their very special day!










Julie and Andy your day was truly beautiful and I thank you for choosing me to capture such beautiful moments! May joy follow you always! xo

I had the pleasure of being present at Tracey and Michael’s wedding last weekend! It was a perfect warm, summer evening down in Bristol, RI! They are an adorable couple, so in love and ready to start their lives together! They really enjoyed their special evening with their family! They are all very close and so excited about the road ahead! Here are a few photographs from Tracey and Michael’s wedding!
Tracey and her attendants looked just beautiful!
Tracey’s flowers were just beautiful! An arrangement of hydrangea and the most perfect color pink roses!

So glad I caught their first kiss! Tracey and Michael managed to sneak it in after the lighting of the unity candle after it didn’t happen when they thought it would!
Down in Bristol it was just perfect! We shot out on a dock out over the bay. It was a beautiful setting

This swan came swimming in right on queue as though it had been rehearsed! It was perfection!


I was so impressed when the wedding party knew the name of the famous Beatles shot “Abbey Road”! Of course, the crosswalk was perfect for it!



Tracey and Michael I hope you enjoyed your beautiful evening! It really was perfect in every way! Your family really loves you and I can tell they couldn’t be happier for you two! I’ll talk to you soon! Big hugs!

Ewelina and Matthew’s wedding was the most beautiful affair! Every detail was planned by this lovely couple and executed with love and it showed! Their guests were all fabulous and the smiles during the day were just overwhelming! Ewelina’s smile is infectious and no one could possibly be in the same vicinity of her and feel sad. She is truly the happiest bride I have ever met! They planned their wedding at the beautiful home of Ewelina’s sister and it was truly the most exquisite private home wedding! I wanted to share so many more, but here are a few from their very special day!
The weather was perfect for an outside wedding! The sun was…well….sunny! LOL! So what would the day be without a little warm sun flare!




I have always said that if you’re going to use Japanese lanterns to decorate you should have a lot of them or none at all! Ewelina and Matthew did a fabulous job with them! There were so many and they were perfectly hung, it was stunning!






They even created their own photo booth! It was a great hit and we had to get some fun shots of course!

I wish I could share more! The day was so fabulous! I even enjoyed myself. Ewelina and Matthew and their family and friends are such gracious people and I felt so welcome around them! Thank you for making my job so fun! I’ll talk to you soon! Have a fabulous honeymoon!!! xo

The first wedding of the year was a lot of fun! It was truly one of those weddings that went by so fast it was a blur to me! I must admit the Patriots Place is a fun place and I cannot wait to go back with my family to do some exploring! I wanted to share with you some photographs from this wedding. The bride and groom were just such a fun and adorable couple, I truly enjoyed hanging out with them during their special day! Check them out!


The bride’s suite at the Renaissance Hotel overlooked the Gillette Stadium, home of the N.E. Patriots!

As a synchro skater this bride grew up on skates and the groom was a hockey player in school! It was so fitting there was an ice rink right at Patriots Place where their wedding was to take place! It was just meant to be! A bride and groom on ice skates was a first for me AND for the rink! There was a lot of excitement in the air when we entered the changing hut at the rink! 



And then it was party time! And I must admit, the lighting at the Renaissance Hotel was just incredible!!! It really gave the entire room a fabulous feeling!



It was definitely one of those weddings where everyone was smiling and truly enjoying the occasion! The bride and groom are adorable together and their friends and relatives truly love them and you could tell it meant so much to everyone who was there that they were able to witness this day! N and R I wish you all the best as you travel forward in your lives together! Looking forward to many years of watching your family grow together!
Because Valentine’s Day is right around the corner I have decided that any wedding couple who books and puts down a deposit on their wedding between now and February 14th will receive a FREE engagement shoot with their package (you must mention this when you book)! You free engagement shoot comes with a DVD of photographs that you can play on your wedding day! Contact me for more information on my wedding packages! I do have a lot already booked and I only take a limited number of weddings each year so that I can give each and every one of my couples my individual attention so book early! When you book me, you get me, you will not be getting someone else! Oh and yes, all 2011 wedding packages INCLUDE the digital files! YAY!

I had the honor of photographing this beautiful wedding! What a fun day it was, everyone was so happy and blessed to be together. It was a spectacular and very hot day! I could barely see through my camera as it was steaming up from the extreme humidity! Just as we were wrapping up the outdoor formal shots it started to sprinkle and once we were inside the skies opened up to one of the most torrential downpours ever! But not after giving us the most spectacular clouds in the sky! Francine and Charlie I wish you all the best as you go forward building your lives together!






Your day was a great one that I will always remember! Best wishes!

My clients are truly amazing people. Whenever I get the honor to shoot a wedding I feel like the luckiest person in the world. I get to witness the love of two people who are usually loved by many more, as they become united and start their new beginning together. Their new fairytale, their new story, their new place in the world. For a moment the world stops and there is no one else on earth. Yesterday was one of those days as I witnessed Maegan and Jason exchange vows and rings in front of friends and family at the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Providence. Here are just a few highlights from the day! I wanted to get a quick post up before Jason and Maegan fly off on their fabulous honeymoon trip!
Maegan was a beautiful bride! Here she is doing a final check before she heads down to marry her handsome groom!

Watching the rain on the RI State House from her beautiful hotel suite!

The cake was made by Jennifer Luxmoore of Sin Desserts in Providence, RI and it looked beautiful! I checked out Sin Desserts website and they have the most incredible cakes! You can check them out here: www.eatwicked.com
The flowers were elegant!
I always love to capture that second when a groom first sees his new bride….and here is that exact moment for Jason!


The wedding party…so fab!

Jason and Maegan’s first dance together, so beautiful!
Enjoy your honeymoon and your life together! Yesterday was beautiful! I’ll be in touch when your proofs are ready!
Keep an eye open….an adorable little boy and another beautiful newborn will be up on the blog later this week! Have a wonderful week everyone!

We even did a few really fun shots…not quite trash the dress, but something non-traditional/fun that shows Brittany’s personality!!

Thank you Brittany! I hope you enjoyed the day! It was so fun!
