Jennifer & Alan- Married- Southbridge/West Brookfield, MA

Jennifer and Alan met while attending Art school. They are both teachers of one of my favorite subjects; ART! The day started off with Jennifer at the Vienna Restaurant & Historic Inn in Southbridge.  Such a beautiful place!  This place totally blew my mind!  Let's just say sensory overload!  We headed over to the church, had a beautiful Mass then went to the reception held at The Salem Cross Inn in West Brookfield, MA.  Another amazing venue to throw me into sensory overload.  Enjoy the teasers and be sure to watch their slideshow by clicking the play button at the end of this post. :-)

Some details I grabbed while the girls were getting ready.

There is just something about this, I LOVE!!!

The Ceremony.

The weatherman forcasted thunderstorms! So glad he was SO WRONG!

Thanks for having me Jennifer and Alan and congratulations.  Thanks to Amanda for assisting me on this wedding.

Matt & Taylor - Married - St. Clements Castle

I hope no one goes into cardiac arrest at the amazement that I am blogging again. This wedding season has totally snuck up on me but I am so excited to share so many shoots and weddings with you. Starting with Matt and Taylor's wedding. It was a gorgeous day with a gorgeous couple and wedding. Taylor is an amazing person. So enthusiastic about life. She had me in tears as most of my brides do. Take a look at her beautiful wedding with a few images.

Here is beautiful Taylor as her mother helps her with her jewelry.

Pretty details.  The lace under the satin ribbon on Taylor's dress was from her grandmother's wedding dress, so awesome!

Announced husband and wife.

I couldn't ask for more beautiful light.

What to do when the groomsmen are being silly.  Go with it!  Capture it!  True personality!

The girls showed their personalities too!

Matt and Taylor had a beautiful dance routine.

Father/daughter dance.

Matt was a Marine and most of his guest were his marine buddies.  They ended the night with serenading Taylor.  "You've lost that love and feeling......whoa, that love and feeling....You've lost that love and feeling...now it's gone, gone, gone...whoa, whoa, whoa.  Badum, badum"  Sorry if it gets stuck in your head because I know it's stuck in mine now.
Enjoy the slideshow.  Thanks to Nikki Nicole for team shooting this with me!

Erica & Frank - Married

Erica and Frank had such a beautiful wedding.  Surrounded by friends and family the vowed to love another for the rest of their lives. Here are just a few of the images captured on their special day.  A special thank you to the staff of Water's Edge Resort & Spa for being so attentive. 

 

Her shoes and dress were gorgeous!

Stunning!

We were lucky enough to end up behind them on our back from the church to the Water's Edge

Frank and his crew.

America's Top Models are what?

WooooHooooo!

Had to incorporate some texture!

One of my fav's of the day!

Love the bubbles during their first dance!

During the Mother - Son dance, Erica held their daughter as she watched; I love how the bond of this family shows in this moment.

Frank and Erica were a joy to work with.  I truly felt like a guest rather than a vendor.  A huge shout out to Candace Jeffery for teaming up with me on this one :-)

Erica & Brad - Married

Erica such a beautiful bride with a beautiful smile! David Apuzzo of David Apuzzo photography contacted me asking if I can help him out with this one. Second shooting is so fun. I love shooting all the details of the day. Erica chose such great colors, purple and mint green. Such an awesome combination! Here are some highlights from my perspective of the day :-)

I started out in the balcony for a birds eye perspective.

I love watching the expressions of the parents of the bride and grooms as they say their vows to one another. Here the bride's mother looked over at her husband when their daughter said "I Do" I bet it brought her back to the day she married; they still seem very much in love :-)

She has such a gorgeous smile! I caught this moment during the receiving line.

Just look at the great smile the mother of the bride is sporting. Must be where Erica gets it from.

Details. Her dress was beautiful!

Details, details, details. I love the great color combinations Erica chose. Such beautiful flowers!

Working with David was great in that he allowed me to guide Erica during her bridal shots. I love when I see so many great shots in my head that I can bring out through my lens. Thanks, David :-)

Since we were short on time and we were both shooting away with her in the balcony I ran inside for a different point of view.

Gorgeous, I could of photographed her all day!

I love capturing emotions during the first dance.

Thanks David for having me help out on this and Thank - You Erica and Brad the best of luck to you both.
