Sandra and Chris picked a wonderful day to celebrate their wedding. The chose Old Sturbridge Village and the setting was unique and inviting. When Sandra was getting ready she mentioned that she has a hard time getting Chris out on the dance floor and that she was excited because today he’s HAVE to dance with her. I try to be on my toes the entire wedding day, but I knew that theses pictures would be one of the special moments that Sandra would like to look back and remember.

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.

Interlaken Inn Reception for Dave and Monica was a blow out and everyone had a great time! Everyone was dancing and having a great time and the bride and groom were leading the way! Dave’s brother could have been cast in a SNL dancing skit. He was a riot and if you spent two minutes around anyone from either side of the family you had to just laugh out loud. This was the type of wedding that I hope I get every weekend because it never feels like I’m at work when surrounded by wonderful people who love to party and just make life a little more spicy!

The Interlaken Inn is a wonderful place and I hope to shoot there again soon.

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 Nonantum Resort is a wonderful venue in Kennebunkport, Maine. I arrived early and stayed late and got some wonderful shots of their grounds and the schooner arriving with the couple.

I always feel like I’m moving at 100 mph at every wedding, but I always try to get 5 minutes to sneak off so I can take a photograph of the venue where the bride and groom have their ceremony and/or reception. I think it’s important to document ”where” of their day as well as the who and why. It really help to put the setting in context in regards to telling a story through their album.

These guys were a blast. I just found this image as I was doing an edit. Yes, they were all sober, but these guys could make a party happen in an igloo in the middle of a blizzard. Everyone at Eric and Cheryl’s wedding was amazing!

As a daddy I see this image and it always pulls at my heart. She was her true daddy’s girl that day and the joy he took in dancing with his daughter reminded me of why being a parent is worth every minute of hard work. By the way the wedding was such in Foxboro about 10 minutes from my house at Lake View Pavilion
