Documentary Wedding and Portrait Photography

I don't need to tell you I am passionate about photography, people, or weddings. Simply check out the portfolio link above (taking you to my main site) and you will know.

I opened JLM Studio in 2004 and am still genuinely excited to meet new couples and be a part of their wedding experience. In the past 7 years I have been so thankful for amazing clients who trust my creative instinct and are thrilled with the final product. Part of this success is because I take a limited number of clients each year and strive to give them an amazing experience and fine-art products that quickly become family treasures.

Like what you see? I can't wait to meet you! LOVE what you see? call quick - I am now booking for 2012!

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!

The Towers

Newport, Wedding

Michelle and Everett held a heartfelt and long-awaited wedding at the Towers in Narragansett. The towers is a really unique location and I absolutely love it because of the textures and, of course, the light. I even got the happy couple outside for a few romantic night shots before the end of the evening.

I only posted a few from this because I don’t want to give away too much. I chose this wedding as my new sample album. I can’t wait to show it to you!

Christina and Shayne

Newport, Wedding

A fabulous couple, historic location and attention to every detail…even the rain that was pouring down all around Bristol, RI couldn’t touch this wedding! Christina did a great job from the colors to the lighting inside and outside the tent. And it really didn’t rain even one drop until every song from the band had already been played. A wonderful evening!

Juilet and Ben were married at the Chanler Hotel in historic Newport, RI. Every part of their day had that historic, Newport feel. A wonderfully warm atmosphere to get married!

Oceancliff

Newport, Wedding

Jennifer and Justin chose Oceancliff in Newport, RI for their ceremony and Reception. I love this location because it is out of the way of tourists, it’s breathtaking views and the ballroom has a second-to-none design with large windows in a half-circle so you can see the ocean. Simply elegant and beautiful!
