Jerry and Jason

This wedding was unlike any other in so many ways, but the biggest one is that the groom has been a very close friend of mine for over 10 years.  I always get the warm-and-fuzzies when I see clients so happy an in love – how could you not?  But I have to admit I think this is the first wedding I have become a little misty  :)

Jerry is an artist who worked tirelessly all summer on the color, details, and setup of this wedding.  Guests were treated to a truly a one-of-a-kind event, with custom designed centerpieces, handmade decorations and even a hand painted rug just for the wedding!   But most importantly the energy of the day was fantastic. Congratulations Jerry and Jason!

Lisa and Daniel

Lisa and Daniel were wed in a sun-drenched ceremony at the end of a long pier in Hull, MA.  Their cocktail hour was just steps away at the SeaDog’s Bay View Room and had the backdrop of one of the best sunsets I have seen all year!  Breathtaking!  This was a new location for me and I am definitely looking forward to going back.  From the unique ceremony site to the fabulous deck overlooking the water and the open post-and-beam New England style reception room that is filled with natural light, this place was a lot of fun to photograph!  www.seadoghull.com


The Flower Girl

Bethany did such a great job at my last wedding that I wanted to share some photos of her work.  Here is what she had to say:  ”It was a pleasure working with Shannon to create the perfect details for her wedding day. The scent of lavender was really her only request. I incorporated both fresh and dried lavender throughout the ceremony and reception flowers to create the scent she craved.”

Beautiful work!  Check out more at www.bethanytheflowergirl.com

Newport Wedding

Here are a few of my favorites from Shannon and Sean’s Newport wedding last weekend.  What a beautiful day!  The ceremony at Trinity Church was heartfelt and historic, after that we went to a few locations for portraits and then off to Regatta Place for the reception complete with rockin’ band and ice cream bar!  The evening finished with Regatta Place’s boat, the Aurora, taking guests (all decked out in their newport-boating-best!) on a sunset sail – how romantic is that?  Congrats to Shannon and Sean!

Boston Engagements

One of my favorites from a recent engagement shoot on a rainy, foggy night in the seaport district.  Of course, that weather isn’t all bad – it can be really romantic!  I can’t wait for Jerry and Jason’s wedding this summer!
