Providence Wedding Photographers | Newport Wedding Photographers | Rhode Island Wedding Photographers – Mark Andrew Photography

This photograph was taken when I was hanging out with the groomsmen for a few minutes before the bride arrived by limo for their ceremony at Saint Teresa’s in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. I got a few group formals with the guys, but wasn’t  getting what I was looking for so I basically told them to just get in a circle with a gap so I could see Chad the groom. I fiddled with my camera so they thought I was changing settings and soon they forgot about me and a couple of the guys lit up cigarettes and they all relaxed and started shooting the shit. This is when I stepped away and onto the sidewalk by Saint Teresa’s. I got a few of these shoots and this one was my favorite of Chad and the guys.

These images were made at a local wedding in Providence, RI. I love dancing at every reception because it really shows the emotion of all the couples who get caught up in the emotion of the wedding day. People really let their guard down and some intimate moments present themselves. I step back and use my long lens so I’m not intrusive and people tend to forget I’m there and that’s when I’m happiest because as a wedding photojournalist I want to be invisible for ninety percent of the day.

Pawtucket and Providence Wedding of John and Vanessa- The couple had a rainy Saturday wedding this past weekend. The weather may have been a little gloomy, but everyone at the wedding and reception was blowing it out and having a great time. I love it when things may go astray with things like the weather, but no one cares. They just make it a unique part of their day. It was a privilege to shoot their big day and to see the love that they have for one another and their family and friends. The carousel and botanical gardens at Roger Williams Park in Providence were a nice touch for the couple of hours between the ceremony at St. Mary’s in Pawtucket and their reception in North Providence.

The Five Bridge Inn in Rehobeth, MA was the site of a great wedding of Cailyn and Nick. Itwas a gorgeous day until the ceremony and then storm clouds came in during the ceremony, but luckily it did not rain, but added a little drama to the ceremony. It was a touching ceremony with Nick’s brother acting as the officiant. There were some touching stories and  the ceremony notes were even in the childhood book that was a favorite for Nick.

Cailyn and Nick’s wedding was Saturday the 27th in Rehobeth, Massachusetts at the Five Bridge Inn. It was a location close to home, but unknown to me so it was a real treat to shoot there. The Inn and grounds are beautiful and Cailyn and Nick really took the time to take care of the small details that make each wedding unique.

The Stonehill College and the Milton Hoosic Club were the sites of Julie and Pete’s wedding and reception. The Stonehill College Chapel was appropriate as Pete and Julie met as undergrads and where there romance began. The Milton Hoosic Club is a beautiful reception site and is located on the South Shore. This was my first time shooting there and I look forward to many returns! They have a wonderfully helpful staff  they really made it a special evening for the couple and all their family and friends.
