I can’t believe 2016 is coming to a close next week – before the new year, you’re definitely going to be seeing the rest of our weddings from this year!  What a wonderful day we had with Erica & David back in October for their wedding that happened on their dating anniversary :)  These two love to laugh together, and had such an incredibly laid back and fun Monday afternoon wedding.  Having met as kids, and later became roommates when they both were living in LA, it turns out that the two fell for each other, moving back to the Bay state together, and are pretty much the perfect fit for each other.  Erica has the most bubbly personality, and David’s even keeled nature keeps her perfectly balanced, and vice versa.  But enough about me, it’s time to enjoy this Beatles loving pair’s wedding!

I absolutely adore the stained glass windows in the church where David grew up before his family moved to California where he and Erica met!

Just after their vows, the sun created the most beautiful spotlight on Erica.  She was literally glowing after becoming David’s wife!

Erica surprised David with the Beatles groom’s cake, and he was filled with emotion over how much he loves her.  This is quite possibly my favorite image of the day, of Erica immediately taking care of her new husband, and wiping away his tears of joy.

As the afternoon wrapped up, Erica’s dad couldn’t help but take the mic to bust out some Beatles songs himself!

Erica & David, thank you for sharing your incredibly love filled wedding day!  We had so much fun with you!

Happy F-F-F-Friday everyone!  Sorry, that was just my teeth chattering.  It’s freaking freezing out, so before I put on my 367 layers to head outside, I’m going to leave this here for you – it will certainly warm your heart!  I first met Christen & Alex when they were guests at Stephanie & Dan’s wedding, where Christen fell in love with the venue.  I’m happy to say I’ll be returning back to White Cliffs Country Club in 2017 for a reunion with this group of awesome friends, this time for Christen & Alex to tie the knot!  We had such a blast hanging out with these guys in their neighborhood in Somerville, during the hustle and bustle of rush hour.  Alex and Christen couldn’t stop laughing with each other, and we wandered Davis Square, complete with a stop at their favorite date spot!

Thanks for hanging out with us, you guys!

We first met Rebecca and Eric by chance when we arrived to photograph Dana & Alec’s wedding at Endicott Estate, and Rebecca and Eric were taking a tour of their future wedding venue.  Rebecca’s mom asked me for a card when we let them peek inside the bridal suite, and I’m so glad that our serendipitous meeting evolved into us being allowed to photograph their stunning wedding this year!  Take Rebecca’s sweet and quiet presence, add Eric’s gentle and caring demeanor, and dash of a stunning sunset ceremony, and you’ve got a formula for a great day!

Rebecca & Eric opted for a first look to be able to have some time alone before the day got away from them.  Eric was literally breathless when he saw Rebecca.  We love when couples take the time for a first look, and genuinely take that time together to heart.  It always creates some of our favorite images from the day, and they’re always unposed!

After we finished all of the formals, it was time for their Ketubah signing, and then into their sunset ceremony with their guests.

It’s pretty much impossible for anyone to not have an incredibly beautiful and romantic dinner reception at Endicott Estate.













Rebecca & Eric, thank you so much for trusting us with your wedding day!  It truly was a stunning celebration of two stunning people inside and out!

I cannot believe how fast 2016 is coming to a close!  I still have so much to share with you – but the holidays are the best time to share joy and love, right?

Gosh I’ve been dying to share this wedding with you!  Symantha & Marcus met on the west coast, when Marcus was on a trip visiting mutual friends.  After getting to know Symantha, and knowing that he couldn’t be on the other side of the country, he packed up his life and moved to San Francisco to live closer to her, and from then on, the two have been inseparable (even sometimes lovingly known as Marmantha).  Having been able to get to know them over the past year, we can completely understand why!  Symantha has an absolutely infectious smile and laugh, and Marcus knows exactly how to bring it out in her.  We had so much fun documenting their wedding.  Everyone was so incredibly welcoming to us, and treated us like one of their own.  We are so honored that everyone allowed themselves to be completely open to emotion, allowing us to capture honest and true joy, celebrating a completely wonderful couple.

Symantha’s dress waited patiently for her at Bradley Estate.

Marcus had an awesome reaction to finding out what Symantha had gotten him as part of his gift!

Symantha’s mom lit up seeing her daughter in her wedding gown!

Symantha’s mom wasn’t the only one excited about seeing how beautiful everyone looked!

When I saw the way the sunlight fell across Symantha’s face here, I fell in love.  It was such a beautiful quiet moment before seeing her groom at the aisle.

That quiet moment didn’t last too long, Symantha was bursting at the seams with excitement!

Such a hard working little flower girl!

Our ring bearer was not exactly pumped about taking a few pictures without mom ;)

Like I said, Symantha was literally exploding with excitement before her ceremony.

Before we started with any formals, Symantha & Marcus scurried away to the front of the estate to simply be together as husband and wife for the first time.

One of the things that made Symantha & Marcus fall in love with the Bradley Estate in Canton was the way the trees at their ceremony site grew separately but come together at the top.

Before we said our goodbyes, we had to take one last portrait.  Thank you so much, Symantha & Marcus.  We are so incredibly humbled to be able to document days like this for couples like you.

Every time I think of Alisha and Joel, I can’t help but start singing “Everything is Awesome” from the Lego movie in my head.  Not only because they played that song as they left their ceremony as husband and wife, but because everything was truly awesome from start to finish.  Alisha and Joel are so incredibly laid back and relaxed, and despite a wasp hitching a ride right on Alisha’s wrist before the ceremony, the two didn’t stop smiling the whole day. From giggling through putting on her wedding dress, to Joel’s laughter at how far in the air his friends had them during (and after!) the Horah, it was truly a day full of celebrations.

I love Joel’s reaction to seeing Alisha for the first time on their wedding day!  Such joy and soul filling love.

All of the decor was so personal to the couple, with each table being named after a location special to them.

While we finished up with a few formals, guests enjoyed all of the lawn games during cocktail hour.

This Horah launched an entirely incredible dance party – not a single soul could take themselves off the dance floor!

Alisha & Joel, we could not have asked for a more wonderful couple to document their day!  Everything is (and will be) awesome.
