{Married} Shelli & Rick

What better way to ring in the new year than to be surrounded by your closest family and friends AND get married?! That is exactly what Shelli and Rick did on December 31, 2014 and everyone truly had a blast celebrating a new year and the new married couple all evening. Shelli had the cutest little winter "woodland" details- from her centerpieces to her adorable pinecone cake toppers. She even made her own bouquets and boutonnieres! The beautiful ball gown dress she chose fit her so perfectly and the guys had the coolest super hero cuff links- it truly was a kick-ass bridal party, that's for sure! I was also so lucky to have my assistant Steph with me who now owns an ICE light! It was absolutely perfect to take the couple outside and get some sweet nighttime photos!

Shelli and Rick, thank you so much for letting us be a part of your day AND your new year! We had a wonderful time! Enjoy this sneak peek :)

{Engaged} Jeremy & Christal

For those of you who know me, I REALLY love my job. It's amazing to be able to capture moments for people that they can look at and reminisce on forever... not to mention, I usually have a ton of fun capturing and helping to create these moments in people's lives. Secondly, if you truly know me, I love LOVE... the idea of love, acts of love, and just plain being in love.  So you can only imagine how I felt being able to photograph two of my best friends getting engaged! I was honored to be a part of the whole process- from helping in the planning to sharing lunch with my newly engaged friends. It couldn't have been sweeter than to include their baby boy- Mr. Brody Brown in the proposal with his new engraved dog tag, which asked  "Will you marry my daddy?" Christal never expected something so sweet :) And even though it was pouring rain, it did not stop these three from vowing to forever be a family... and lucky for me, it made for some awesome photos! As I was shivering from nervousness, excitedness, and being just a leeeetle chilly on their porch, I was able to capture this super sweet moment they both will remember forever.

Jeremy and Christal, I am so happy for you both! I can't wait for all the amazing and fun things to come for you guys... and I can only hope that I will continue to witness and be a part of them. Love you TOO much!

{Married} Heather & Jon

Heather and Jon tied the knot on a chilly, but beautiful snow covered December day at The Old Mill in Westminster, Ma. All the colors and details Heather chose fit her winter theme perfectly. From royal blues and creams to the christmas lights and snowflake details, it was like walking in a winter wonderland! Not to mention the heartfelt memories of her Mom incorporated into her day, such as the beautiful pearl earrings she gave to Heather, which Heather then attached to her stunning, lacy gown to keep Mom by her side all day. So sweet!

Despite the cold, these two completely rocked the outdoor formal photos like it was their job! (Seriously, you guys were awesome.) And really, how could they be truly cold when they were surrounded and supported by all the people they love most? :)

Heather, Gumpy, Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your day! I was so glad to be there and witness the silly (my favorite kind!) and warming love the two of you share. Enjoy this sneak peek!

xoxo
