Lieschen & Stephen’s Winter Wedding – Beacon Hill

I’ve known Lieschen for a few years now. She is both friend and chiropractor – invaluable on so many levels! I was excited for her last year when she met Stephen and fell in love – and was doubly excited when she called recently to ask me to shoot their wedding just a few weeks later!

The day started at the Liberty Hotel down in Boston. This painting made such a cool backdrop for her dress!

Lieschen & her Mom

yeah, she’s pretty gorgeous

Lieschen’s little nieces were there while she was getting ready – total entertainment for everyone!

FAVORITE!

After she was ready, Stephen came to the suite for the First Look

Everyone had a toast to celebrate

the handsome groom

Then it was down to the courtyard for some portraits. We lucked out and had a really lovely day to go outside! Though, snuggling did make it even warmer :)

Lieschen & Stephen

The wedding was shortly after the holidays, and The Liberty Hotel still had Christmas trees hanging from the ceiling. It was the coolest way I’d ever seen a hotel decorate for the holidays!

Then we headed down Charles Street to The Hungry I for their intimate ceremony & reception

Surrounded by their immediate families, the got married in front of the fire place in a candle-lit ceremony

It was perhaps both the darkest and the smallest ceremony I’ve ever photographed! It was lovely though!!

After the ceremony, everyone headed upstairs for a nice dinner, some toasts, and lots of laughter!

One of the nieces was a little bored at that point, and kept wanting me to play with her… so, you know, I HAD to ;)

The other niece seemed to be having a good time ;)

mmmm, meringue cake!

rings in roses

Love this shot of Lieschen & Stephen chatting with his uncle!

And just for fun, I had to get one with the bride!

Lieschen & Stephen – thanks again for allowing me to be part of your wedding! I’m excited for you, and for all the lies ahead! ;)

The Bride’s bouquet (how much do I love this purple chair at the hotel?!)

I love the detailing on Amy’s dress!

The Reception (last 3 photos by Anne Ruthmann)

The Cake! The Cake Topper was the very same one that Amy’s parents had on their cake when they got married. I’m so sentimental, I love little things like that :)

As always, a big thanks to the wonderful vendors who worked together to make this wedding so fabulous!

Amy & Lawrence’s Orthodox Wedding – Boston

Just a few short days after their engagement session, I met Amy & Lawrence down at the Hilton Boston Logan for their wedding!

We started with Amy while she was getting ready

Love this photo my assistant CoCo Boardman captured

Amy looked so beautiful!!

My second shooter, the fabulous Anne Ruthmann, photographed Lawrence getting ready

and waiting patiently to see his lovely bride

Lawrence’s reaction was priceless!

During important moments, I often keep shooting, even while I’m still focusing. Sometimes this leads to happy little mistakes :) I love this shot of Lawrence lowering her veil!

Anne’s take on the same moment

After they had a private First Look, it was time for some group portraits, and the Tisch and Bedekken. The Bedekken is definitely my favorite part of the Orthodox Jewish wedding ceremony! Its just beautiful!

The Wedding Ceremony

Father of the Bride

Anne captured this great shot of Lawrence fiddling with his ring after the ceremony!

A sweet moment as we drive over to the Harbor for some portraits

Amy really wanted some photos outside, and though it wasn’t nearly as warm as it had been for the engagement session, and it was incredibly windy, it was definitely worth the effort! I love this shot CoCo got of them walking down the path!

SO Happy!

*LOVE*

I was shooting directly into the sun and my focusing went nuts! Another happy “mistake” – I love the focus on the sun flare!

Sometimes, I think it’s fun to share my favorite images with the brides right away, so they can see why I’m so excited :)

After the portraits, we went back in so the real party could start! Orthodox Jewish weddings have the most high-energy receptions! They may be my favorites…

I LOVE this shot that CoCo captured of Lawrence while some of they guys were dancing for him!

And every once in a while, I want to be in a photo too! ;)

Amy & Lawrence – thank you again for trusting us with your wedding day! It was such a fun day! I can’t wait to sit down with you when you’re back in town and start planning your album! :)

Between the holidays, and trying to wrap up all of my 2010 weddings, I’ve completely neglected my poor little blog! I have a bunch of posts to share and will try to get those out over the next few days & weeks. But I’ll start with Lori & Mark‘s wedding details! I already told you how much fun their wedding was, but now I want to share some of the little details that made it really beautiful too!

Lori’s fabulous Christian Louboutin shoes! And the cool hanger a friend had made for her :)

I love when people have their rings engraved on the inside! It’s like a little secret they keep on them all the time :)

Sometimes, I have to multi-task :)

The beautiful jewelry Mark gave her!

The reception was located on The Odyssey which sets sail from Rowes Wharf

Lori & Mark’s Wedding – Boston MA

One of the things I love about my job is that no two couples are the same. While some brides may end up with the same shoes, or the same flowers, or the same location… each couple totally unique. Lori & Mark are no exception! From the outside, these two look about as different as you can get. Mark is 6 foot something, while Lori is just under 5 feet tall. She’s very bubbly and expressive, while he is quiet and stoic. But when you meet them, you can see just how well they fit together! It was awesome to get to celebrate with them as they got married at the Boston Harbor Hotel and then celebrated with a reception on The Odyssey earlier this Fall!

Love this shot of Lori getting all dolled up!

Mark waiting with the guys

The bar wasn’t open yet, but we still used it for a few photos :)

Lori’s reaction to Mark’s wedding gift was priceless! Mark definitely did well picking out jewelry for his bride!

Love this shot of Lori getting ready!

she has such beautiful eyes!

Prayer and laughter just before the ceremony

The ceremony was held in the pavillion [Photo by my assistant Coco Boardman]

We shot through the windows quite a bit to get the best view!

Photo by Second Shooter Erin Chapman

After the ceremony we headed to the archway for some portraits

I love this one of Lori & her Mom! So sweet!

The girls :)

The men

Then it was time to climb aboard the Odyssey for a few more portraits before the party got started.

Celebrating with the Bridal Party

First Dance

Another great shot by Erin

The Best Man, Mark’s brother, gave a great toast that had everyone laughing and crying

Cutting the cake

Lori & her Father

Don’t you love the short little dress Lori changed into for the reception?!

After Party!

Lori & Mark – thank you so much for trusting me, Erin & CoCo to capture your wedding! It has been so fun getting to know you guys and your wedding was a blast! I’m so glad we could be a part of it! If only woofs had been there… ;)

Angie & Matt’s Wedding – Black & White FILM

Angie & Matt’s wedding was awesome, but one of my favorite things about it was that I got to shoot a bunch of FILM for them! I got my start in wedding photography shooting for an all black & white film studio, and I still love it :) Digital is fabulous, and totally has taken over the industry. But, film still has a place, in my opinion. There’s nothing quite so timeless as black & white film. It just looks classic. Clearly, I love it. Anyway, here are a few of my favorite film shots from Angie & Matt’s wedding day…

Angie getting ready (shot with 35mm Tri-X 400 on my Nikon F100 & 50mm f/1.4)

The ceremony (shot on 35mm Tri-X 400 with the Widelux)

Portraits in the Public Gardens (shot on 35mm Tri-X 400 with my Nikon F100 & 50mm f/1.4)

(shot on 35mm Tri-X 400 with the Widelux)

The View from the Taj

The Taj set up for the reception (shot on 35mm Tri-X 400 with the Widelux, then with the F100)

A few from the reception (shot on 120 Tri-X 400 with the Holga and a Vivitar 283 flash)

suspenders!

Chucks!

looooooove the black & white tile! It’s so perfect for b&w film!

Double Exposure

Last shot of the night! (35mm Tri-X 400 with Nikon F100)

Angie & Matt – HUGE thanks for giving me the freedom to shoot some film for you!! I hope you love how it turned out!

As always, you can see more on Facebook!

Angie & Matt’s Wedding at The Taj – Boston MA

I remember when Angie first called me – she got right down to business and asked what they needed to do to make sure I was at their wedding! I usually meet with clients before they book so we can all make sure we’re a good fit, but Angie was calling from Chicago and it just couldn’t happen. Besides, she’s a woman who knows what she wants, and no sense in wasting any time making it happen! I liked her right away ;) When we finally met for their engagement session, I was totally excited to get to know them both and hear a little more of their story. And that just made me more excited for their wedding day! When the day finally arrived this Fall, it ended up being just as gorgeous and fun as I expected. This was definitely a celebration, a real party! That’s my kind of wedding :)

We started out the day at the Taj Boston, where Angie was getting ready…

I love this series of Angie as she realizes that she’s getting into her wedding dress and she’s actually about to get married!

The ceremony was held right next door at Emmanuel Church

My second shooter, Lori DeSantis, grabbed these lovely shots of the bridesmaids during the ceremony

Married!

After the ceremony, we headed over to the Public Garden for some portraits.

The guys had purple argyle socks and were tucking them into their pants to show them off… haha!

loving the lamp post behind Angie & Matt!

Such a gorgeous couple!

Back to the Taj!

Let the fun begin!

My assistant, CoCo Boardman, captured this fun shot during the bridal party dance

The dance floor was going all night!

Last Dance…

Angie & Matt – thank you! Thank you for trusting me with your wedding, even before we’d ever met! And thanks making it such a fun party to photograph! Everyone had an amazing time, and I’m so glad we could be a part of it!!
