Brittany and Jim’s Bridgton Maine Engagement Session

On the way up to Bridgton, Dan asked me to tell him a little bit about these two since he wasn’t able to be there for the original consultation. All I could tell him other than the details and logistics of their upcoming wedding day was that Brittany (who I talked on the phone with) was ridiculously kind and sounded like a precious person. In person, she is exactly that, but even more. Her tiny frame just melted into her fiance Jim, who was always up for a cuddle or hug. It was such a casual engagement session with the two of them. They made US comfortable. Brittany and Jim actually hired us before they were officially engaged. They saw no reason to hold off the wedding plans that they knew were inevitable. Although this is rare, I can understand it and completely get knowing you’re definitely getting married before the ring. I am happy to announce that they are indeed engaged and we got to take some super fun images of them at her family’s “upta camp,” (Mainer’s will get this). When we saw how calm the lake was, Dan could not contain his excitement. The reflection was breathtaking. I definitely took a few landscapes for my own personal photo collection. We get to visit so many awesome places!

So snuggle up with a cuppa tea and enjoy this very Maine engagement session with Brittany and Jim. #loves

Roshan and Karen’s Newport Rhode Island Engagement Session

I don’t remember the last time we went to so many spots for photos. I think we hit six locations for this session including two state parks, one town park, and three side of the road spots that just looked awesome. As I was editing this session I could not get over how stunningly beautiful New England is. Just pulling off the side of the road and capturing scenery like this is commonplace here. I can’t imagine a more inspiring place for my soul… here, and hawaii, and the coast of NC, and what I imagine Ireland to be… perhaps that means I just can’t get enough of this beautiful planet!

Roshan and Karen were guests at Mara and Will’s wedding. I remember seeing them dancing at the wedding, completely lost in the moment and loving on each other. What an honor it was when they reached out to us for their own wedding this September! They are both gorgeous, stylish, successful, and most importantly, in love with one another. Spending a sunset with them was just my cup of tea.Roshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0007.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0004.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0021.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0038.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0048.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0065.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0072.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0097.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0090.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0105.JPGRoshan and Karen Engagement 0147Roshan and Karen Engagement 0136Roshan and Karen Engagement 0130Roshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0107.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0125.JPGRoshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0123.JPGRoshan and Karen Engagement 0132Roshan-and-Karen-Engagement-0117.JPG

Kim and Justin’s Gibbet Hill Barn Wedding

Kim and Justin are New York City dwellers, which is where we photographed their engagement session.  Him coming from a farm in Pennsylvania and her from Massachusetts, they chose to have their wedding at The Barn at Gibbet Hill in Groton, MA. It was a perfect place for their rustic winter wedding. Both of them have large families with lots of siblings. It was so fun to see them all become one big family on this, their wedding day. I loved how much Justin made Kim laugh. A lot of the images we got, she was laughing and so was he, showing what a joyous day it really was for them both. The speeches were heartfelt, and the details were spot on. After a delicious dinner, they danced the night away with huge smiles on the faces on both guests and ourselves. It was a great way to spend our Saturday, with these two happy people, very much in love.

Logan and Jay’s Intimate Vermont Wedding

A dozen people, a few short hours, and a wedding that we will never ever forget… this was Logan and Jay’s wedding.

It snowed all day, beautiful dreamland snow, the kind of snow that you picture when you think of romantic white fluffy Vermont snow. We met them in a lodge where there closest family were all together preparing to witness Logan and Jay exchange vows. They had flown in from places as far away as California and Florida. Their first look took place in the falling snow… I don’t know how to properly convey that scene other than to share the images. It was complete and total first look perfection. The had their ceremony in the snow on the back porch of the cabin. It was so casual but yet so serious… one of those ceremonies where you can feel the sacred vows. After the kiss, it was on to a sleigh ride in the snow followed by dinner, cooked by the chef right there in the cabin. What could really be better?

I hope that the images convey just how unforgettable this small wedding really was. Pinch me ok?
