I’ll be photographing Judy and Joe’s wedding this fall but we wanted to take advantage of a beautiful summer day for an engagement session. It was a fun morning of poking around the nooks and crannies of Judy’s childhood stomping grounds, Coolidge Corner in Brookline. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the morning.

Gail and Matt’s Mount Washington Hotel Wedding

I recently travelled up to the Mount Washington Resort & Hotel, located in Bretton Woods to shoot Gail and Matt’s wedding. Here is a preview of some of my favorite images from their day.

Gail and her bridesmaids all got ready in one of the hotel’s suites.

While Matt and the Groomsmen prepared and waited on the other side of the hotel.

It was overcast in the morning but the weather cleared up treating us to a dramatic display of clouds against the mountains for the ceremony.

The resort has some wonderful backdrops for taking photos, including this dark cave.

And I was lucky to have Maine wedding photographer, Andree Kehn along helping to create wonderful images including the gorgeous one below.

Carrie Sartor from Lyndsey Hamilton Events in NYC was the event’s planner, and you can see her attention to detail in these shots from the reception.

All of the toasts featured this trophy sized goblet.

Guests attending from out of the country shared some of their ‘local customs’ with the bride and groom.

The band was rocking and kept the guests on their toes until the last minute.

Can’t get enough? Check out more of my favorite photos from this wedding over on my Facebook page.

Congratulations again, Gail and Matt!

Hell’s Kitchen Finalist Jason Santos

My favorite restaurant in the whole world is Gargoyles on the Square in Davis Square, Somerville. For the past two months Gargoyles’ Executive Chef, Jason Santos has been competing on the FOX reality TV show Hell’s Kitchen. And he’s been doing quite well–so well in fact that he’s made it through all of the eliminations and is one of the two chefs who will be competing for all the marbles on the upcoming season finale. I’ll be at Gargoyles next Tuesday night to cheer Jason on.

Jason asked me to take some publicity photos for his new website. Here’s a few of them.

And of course, any post about Jason wouldn’t be complete without showing off some of his cuisine.

Trust me, Jason’s food tastes even better than it looks. Yum!

Alice & Casey’s Squam Lake Wedding

In my book, you only need a few things for a great lakeside wedding: a beautiful summer day, a happy couple, fun guests, and a lake. But to make it a perfect lakeside wedding, do what Alice and Casey did. Get everyone on boats and head to an island (like Church Island) for an open air ceremony. Hang a tent off the back of your barn for the reception. Roast a pig. Most of all, keep it casual and intimate.

Congratulations Alice & Casey!

Cassie and Eric in Arlington, MA

I just had the great pleassure of photographing Cassie and Eric’s intimate Spring wedding. This wedding was very local for me as I’ve just moved to Arlington and they held their ceremony in the park at the Town Hall. Their reception was held at the Whittimore-Robbins House next door. Cassie and Eric couldn’t have had a more beautiful sunny day to tie the knot. Here are some of my favorite images from the day.

The event was catered by T.W. Food, of Cambridge. It’s a restaurant that I’ve driven by a thousand times, heard fantastic things about, and actually have an unused gift certificate for from Christmas. After seeing the meal they prepared for Eric and Cassie, I can’t wait to visit the restaurant.

And the fun duckie-themed cake was made by Cassie’s Mom.

Congratulations again Cassie and Eric!

We did a couple of wardrobe changes for this outdoor intimate session, but I think the tank top worked out best.
