Lulabelle Cupcakes

One of my lovely brides, Lori, recently decided to start her own cupcake business – Lulabelle’s Cupcakes. I was super psyched when she asked me to take some photos for her – in large part because I knew that meant I’d get to EAT some CUPCAKES!! Yes!

I love that her cupcake papers fit my branding :)

Yum!

Lori’s specialty… red velvet…mmmmmmmmmmm

you know I took that bite!

Lori – you’re amazing! Thank you for the deliciousness!

Elizabeth & Ryan’s Wedding – The DETAILS

Not only was Elizabeth & Ryan‘s wedding joyous and emotional, it was incredibly lovely as well! They got married at Elizabeth’s parents’ home in Marion, down on Buzzard’s Bay, and did a wonderful job making it a classy and beautiful event! They had 3 separate tents for the ceremony, dinner and reception and the flow of the day around the property created an air of anticipation and excitement. From the flowers, to the cake, and the setting – the whole thing came together perfectly. It’s amazing to me how the combination of little details can make such a big impact on the feel of an event…

The back of the house, where the ceremony was held.

Here’s a taste of some of the details in the house

The patio for cocktails and the view of the back yard

The dinner tent was set up over their pool. I’ve never seen that before, doesn’t it create such a cool ambiance?!

The tables were lavish and interesting, with big candelabras and antiqued vases of all shapes and sizes full of flowers lining the whole table. It was beautiful!

In these photos you can see the house, the ceremony tent, the cocktail patio, and the reception tent, and just barely the dinner tent in the back. It was so neat to have everything in one location, but they were able to give each piece of the day it’s own space with it’s own feel.

It’s so great to see all the planning and dreaming and designing come together and give a wedding such a wonderful feel!

Special thanks to:

Gregory’s in Wakefield, MA for the amazing flowers

Annika’s Bat Mitzvah

This past Fall, I had the pleasure of photographing Annika’s Bat Mitzvah at the Museum of Science. It was such a cool location for a party! I got there early and spent some time wandering around the museum, and capturing some of the details planned by the lovely & talented Nathalya Mamane…

Food from the amazing Catering by Andrew

This was basically the coolest spot in the place! Fine dining under the T-Rex – how awesome is that?!

Then the family arrived and we had a little time for some quick portraits around the museum.

The beautiful Bat Mitzvah girl

The whole family

Annika’s parents are such a fun couple! When I first met them cutting it up on the dance floor at Julia’s Bat Mitzvah, I knew they were going to be great to work with!

They kicked off the party with the Horah! Always my favorite part :D

This family loves to dance!

I think Annika had a great time!

Annika, it was so great to meet and work with you and your family. What a great party! Congratulations once again!! :)

Julia’s Bat Mitzvah

Wow, it’s been a couple weeks since I posted on the blog!! I hope you all weren’t worried ;) It’s been a busy few weeks with a sinus infection just in time for my parents to visit, and then a lovely bout of vertigo just in time for my birthday. Trust me, it’s been a blast (insert sarcastic tone here). But, I’m feeling better, finally blew out my birthday candles, and am back in business!

So without further ado, I present photographs from Julia’s Bat Mitzvah!

The lovely Bat Mitzvah Girl

And her wonderful siblings

Julia’s Dad, Andrew is one of the best caterers in Boston. I was absolutely honored to photograph this special event for their family!

And what an event it was! The party was huge, everything was so colorful, the decor and the details were so gorgeous, and of course the food was amazing! Special thanks to Nathalya Mamane, flowers by Carol Silverston, and Rentals Unlimited!

The dance floor was definitely my favorite part of the whole day. This was one of the most energetic dance floors I’ve ever photographed. I got knocked over, feet jumped on, and bumped all over the place – it was totally awesome! Music by the Nafshenu Orchestra out of New York.

I LOVE the Horah!!

More dancing…

And what’s a celebration without a few toasts?!

Thank you Andrew and family for having me as part of such an important day for your family – and for such a great time and an awesome party!!
