Katie + Keith — Mystic Seaport Winter Wedding – xo, CoCo

We really lucked out for Katie and Keith‘s lovely and intimate winter wedding, it was surprisingly warm and man did we get some fabulous light! These two were total troopers as we led them around the grounds of the gorgeous Mystic Seaport. They had a fabulous time partying with all their RIT friends and loving families, and we were so happy to be there to document it! Enjoy!

Krista was my second shooter for the day and grabbed this as Katie got dressed.

This little guy was cracking me up!

Krista set Keith up for his first look of his bride!

Such a gorgeous spot, huh?!

Krista, the master of the sun flare, grabbed this :).

So cute!

And we’re off! It takes quite a crew to move a bride!

So much anticipation…

After the ceremony, we hung back for some more portraits, Krista caught this as well.

They had very sweet simple details, love those little birds!

Love this ring shot from Krista!

Get down guys!

Katie + Keith — Providence, RI Winter Engagement – xo, CoCo

Katie an Keith came to us through a very dear friend but we quickly discovered that we had another connection, they both went to my alma mater, RIT! It was great to reminisce a bit about our favorite Brick City while we walked around downtown Providence for their engagement session. It was freezing outside so we found some fabulous indoor spaces to shoot at The Arcade and the gorgeous interior of The Dorrance around the corner. Take a look at a few of my favorites!

I’m so happy the generous staff at The Dorrance let us come in for a few portraits! This place was gorgeous!

We braved the cold for a minute or two, it was freezing!

I’m so glad we had this time to connect Katie and Keith! Check out Facebook for more and stay tuned for their wedding post as well!

Lephan + Scotty — Providence, RI Engagement – xo, CoCo

I don’t think it’s possible to love a couple more than I love these two! Is that weird to say? I don’t care, I’m sticking with it! From the moment I spoke on the phone to Lephan, I knew we would be a perfect fit. MANY silly emails ensued in regards to her wedding, engagement session, and who KNOWS what else, and the rest is history. I met up with her and her handsome and adorable fiance Scotty in Providence while they were in town visiting for Christmas. Amazingly, we got some gorgeous light and weather, and had so.much.fun. We started out walking around DePasquale Square in Providence’s Federal Hill area, enjoy.

Aaaaand the laughing starts… I just LOVE her smile!

So dapper, no?!

Then, there was this amazing yellow wall in a weird alley, we took a chance and I LOVE it!

Then a quick jaunt over to College Hill, the streets are so beautiful!

I was taking the train home and about to miss it but just couldn’t resist this light!

Lephan you are just gorgeous!

Even if I did miss my train it would have been worth it! Lephan and Scotty I am so excited to see you again in November! Thank you for being so open and honest in front of the camera, however awkward you may think you are! ;) It was such a pleasure, you are the best!

Christina + Preston — Boston Back Bay Engagement – xo, CoCo

I don’t know how it happened but we got the most perfect weather and light exactly when we needed it during Christina and Preston’s Engagement session. Not only did they meet for the first time at Back Bay Station, they actually got engaged there as well! This was obviously a special place for them and provided a really fun backdrop for me. We ran around the city, found some wonderful color and light, and I tried not to die of jealousy talking about Chicago with them, one of my favorite cities ever, and where they just happen to live! Enjoy!

I mean come on!

We found some really fun light reflecting off the buildings downtown.

And a nice little spot to cuddle…

At the very spot where they got engaged!

What a super fun afternoon this was guys! I can’t wait to see you again this Summer!! If you’d like to see more, head over to our Facebook Page!

Nichole + Steve — Church Landing Wedding – xo, CoCo

Oh, Nichole and Steve, where do I start?! Well first of all Nichole is a friend of Krista’s so when she came to us for her wedding photography, we just couldn’t resist! You may remember them from their North End Engagement, and also remember that they are totally adorable. They were married on one of the last few beautiful Fall days in late November at the beautiful Church Landing in Meredith, New Hampshire. We had the run of the place for the day and could not have been more grateful for the gorgeous light and weather. Not to mention this couple and their wonderfully welcoming families and friends, what a fun day!

He obviously took his job very seriously…:)

Krista was my fabulous second shooter for the day, Nichole is a good friend of hers after all! She started out with Steve and his dudes.

Love.

LOVE.

Oh, Nichole you are such a beauty!

Krista grabbed this of Steve when he first saw Nichole!

Workin hard :)

This is Krista’s view of the dock, love the blue!

And mine.

The next few are Krista’s, man we got some gorgeous light!

Make love to the camera Steve…

Then into the library with the bridal party!

We just had to take advantage of this hallway with branches, it was so cool! This is Krista’s view with ambient light.

The girls needed to kill a little time before the ceremony, so might as well sing “Wheels on the bus!”

The next two are from Krista.

Krista’s view of the kiss!

We found time for a little night photography right after the ceremony, here’s a long exposure of the building from Krista, gorgeous!

And some fun with lights in the trees from me!

Steve’s mom was killing it, love those heels!

Fun with their Photo Booth pictures :)

Steve’s dad, also a champ on the dance floor. :)

Not to mention Nichole!

Woohoo! What a fabulous day it was, thank you Nichole and Steve for being so incredibly easy to work with, you and your wonderful families. We wish you all the best! Find more on Facebook! We also have these wonderful vendors to thank for such a gorgeous day!

Kate + Peter — Jamaica Pond Engagement Session – xo, CoCo

I met with Kate and Peter for the first time at one of my favorite coffee shops, Simon’s, in Cambridge. Not only were they excited for our meeting, which is always great, little did I know Peter had actually just proposed to Kate hours earlier! Now, these two had obviously been planning their wedding for months, and Kate knew they were going to get engaged very soon, but it was still so fun to see how excited they were and to see them basking in that just engaged glow. And I love that even though both Kate and Peter knew this was going down, Peter still pulled out all the stops and even got a small orchestra to play for Kate! So romantic! We got together for their engagement session not soon after at Jamaica Pond, and caught the very end of the beauty that is the Fall in New England. It was fabulous, though we couldn’t have pulled it off any later, it definitely got pretty chilly towards the end of the night!

Kate’s leopard booties are to die for, am I right?!

This is the spot that I believe was their very first date, years ago in feet of snow! I saw pictures, it was adorable…

Kate and Peter thank you for being so awesome and so in love! I can’t wait to see you in April! Check out more on Facebook!

Sarah + Mike — Corn Maze Engagement Session – xo, CoCo

Back in college, one of Sarah and Mike’s first meetings was at a corn maze, or a Maize Maze as we called them in Virginia, with a group of friends. It just sounds so perfect doesn’t it? Getting lost, making eyes at each other through the stalks, definitely sounds like a classic college love story to me :) So when Mike suggested and researched the heck out of Corn Mazes on the North Shore I thought it sounded like super fun idea. We ended up at Marini Farm in Ipswich, which was absolutely perfect. We more or less had the place to ourselves, it was late Fall and the light was INSANE. This definitely ended up being one of my favorites shoots of the year. These two are quiet, thoughtful, sweet and most of all FUN. Enjoy!

I love Sarah’s mini-skirt and boots, the perfect Fall getup!

I could NOT resist the bouncing pillow outside the maze, all the little kids were bouncing around Mike trying to get a good bounce out of him, it was so fun!

I *think* these guys had fun too. :)

Thank you Sarah and Mike for making my job so easy. You guys are the best!

Like us and see more of these two cuties on Facebook.

Henia + Jay — Intimate Davio’s Boston Restaurant Wedding – xo, CoCo

Meet the two cutest people in the whole world, Henia and Jay. These two are so adorably in love I can’t even take it! It was such a pleasure spending the day with these two, Henia’s beautiful daughters and their closest friends and family. Their day was low-key, intimate, emotional, and exciting all rolled into one! We started out at Henia and Jay’s home in Andover, and caught some beautiful late Fall light.

Of course we had to snag some portraits with their adorable dogs!

Such sweet ladies!

By far, my favorite.

Their ceremony space was just outside Davio’s in downtown Boston, it was a cool set up.

Jay’s father’s speech was so sweet, his parent’s seemed so proud!

Absolutely LOVE these two! Thank you Henia and Jay for sharing your love with me, it was such a pleasure! See more on Facebook if you dare!

T + P — Boston College Club Wedding – xo, CoCo

I dare say, I have never heard “Thank You” as many times in one day as I heard from T & P on their wedding day. These two and their families are so wonderfully genuine, kind, and altogether fabulous, it was such a pleasure spending the day with them, let alone photographing them! T got ready at her parents’ house, full of bridesmaids, kids and family, it was frantic and fun.

This guy wasn’t too pumped about his bow-tie :)

Such stunningly simple dress, love.

Trying to get a sneak peak of the ceremony…

It was drizzling but everyone made the most of it!

The fabulous Cris Llerena of Nom de Plume Photo joined me for the day and grabbed this great wide shot.

We ran over to the Public Gardens, full of colorful leaves, and lots of tourists, for some quick portraits.

At the very spot where they got engaged, so sweet!

One more stop at Post Office Square, love the city scape!

Cocktail hour was in full swing at the BC Club as the sun set.

Such a great view from up there!

The speeches were a hit!

Woohoo! What a fabulous and fun-filled day, thank you T & P for being so gracious and for loving each other so much! You make my job easy! Find them on Facebook too!

Gigi + Jason — Hyannis Private Estate Wedding – xo, CoCo

Oh, Gigi and Jason, where do I begin?! I had the BEST feeling about these two when we first met over beers in Porter Square. They seemed genuinely excited and perfectly in love. Gigi giggled and smiled the whole time, more of that below :) While Jason and I nerded out on beer. Fun fact, Jason and I later ran into each other over the Summer, way the heck out in Vermont at Hill Farmstead, while he was on his bachelor weekend, great minds…

Well all that positive energy continued through to their wedding which was sunny, beautiful, and filled with LOTS of love and laughter. No joke, as I walked around the property in the morning, the first thing I heard was Gigi giggling up in her suite. Just LOVE her. OK, so here we start at this beautiful private estate, with big thanks to Jason’s family for their kindness and hospitality.

These shoes reminded me of Sex and the City, am I right ladies? Hello, Lover.

Gigi’s mother lives in Egypt and I was told she doesn’t get to see her daughters together all that often. She was just incredibly sweet, kissing, hugging and singing all day.

Gigi must have slipped this into Jason’s garment bag, he got ready just down the hallway from her.

I was very lucky to be joined by Paul McNerney of Studio Foto for the day! He grabbed this of Jason, and the next two of their first look.

Love these shots from Paul, Gigi was so nervous and sweet.

Paul also ran upstairs to grab this during the ceremony, absolutely stunning! (Look closely, that’s the Kennedy compound in the distance).

Gigi’s dad, such a sweetie.

Gigi you are killing me!

Love this from Paul.

This lookout felt like the hottest place on earth at the time, but totally worth it!

We grabbed the couple at sunset for a few more portraits, some of my favorites!

Paul‘s view, love.

Paul grabbed this as well.

Gigi and her sisters were killing it on the dance floor.

Gigi and Jason you two are so dear to my heart, thank you and your families for being incredibly welcoming and loving. Thank you for letting me photograph your love! Head over to Facebook for more!
