Since so many of Lori & Damian’s friends & family were coming down to Bermuda for the wedding, I offered some Mini-Portrait Sessions to everyone! Because who doesn’t want some great family photos to remember such an awesome vacation?! Check out my favorites from our Mini Sessions at the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum & Zoo!
Lori + Damian — Bermuda Destination Wedding at Coco Reef
Lori & Damian’s wedding began with preparations in the morning, on the cruise ship!
Getting ready is a bit more complicated in a cruise ship cabin, with children & grandchildren around… ;)
A few portraits on the dock before heading to CoCo Reef!
One of my favorites from the day! I love how Damian loves his grandson!
CoCo Reef was a gorgeous place for a wedding!
I love this sweet moment between Lori & her daughter, Emma!
Time to get married!
Best backdrop for a wedding, EVER!
The happy new family!
Just a few moments alone…
The Reception
LOVED these wedding favors! (I use my beach bag all. the. time!)
After the delicious lunch, it was off to the beach to enjoy the day! Talk about a great wedding reception!!!

Lori + Damian — Bermuda Destination Wedding — Welcome Dinner
When Lori called me to discuss photographing her destination wedding, I was all ears! Then she told me that in order to do it all, I’d have to accompany them on their 7-day cruise from Boston to Bermuda, I was like YES PLEASE!! Sign me up! It was such a great opportunity to get to know Lori & Damian, and a lot of the friends & family since half of the wedding guests came on the cruise too. What a fun way to get married!
On our first day in port in Bermuda, Lori & Damian had a Welcome Dinner at the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo. SO COOL! Everyone got entrance to the Zoo as part of the dinner, and had the chance to walk around and check out the wildlife and the views before the party started. The seals were my favorites!
A few portraits with the fishies before dinner… love these!
Dinner & drinks surrounded by tanks of fish on every side – it’s awe-inspiring!
Dark & Stormy anyone?
Much more to come… stay tuned!
Kate + Reid – Surprise San Diego Wedding – The Day After
Here’s just a quick little look into Kate and Reid’s Day After portrait session! This was mostly manned by Allana Taranto as Krista hurt her leg just as the Bride and Groom took off on their bikes :( Alas, they still look pretty cute…
They followed the tradition of my wedding and tied PBR cans to their vehicles of choice…
Reid kept getting his tangled.
The parents tried to help…
And that was about it for the cans! Haha.
Celeste & Troy’s Wedding!
This is Celeste, Troy & Aiden walking around Cabo on our way to our sunset cruise the night before the wedding. Aren’t they cute?? :)
Celeste helping Aiden get ready…
Our Aunt Bethie gave Celeste our Great-Grandmother Celesta’s ring as her something-old and something-borrowed. This ring was given to Grandma Guenin by Grandpa Guenin like 100 years ago, before they were married. Celeste and I never got to meet Grandma Guenin, but since she’s Celeste’s namesake and all – it was pretty special.
Celestey looking beautiful…
This was the setting of the ceremony and reception – it was gorgeous!
Little Aiden again – he’s just so cute!!
Here’s the whole fam!! Well, at least everyone who could come :) We missed the rest of you guys!!
Celeste & Troy enjoying being newlyweds…
It was so fun! And the best part was that after dinner, the hotel was having karaoke night right next to us – so we got to keep having fun, with microphones in our hands :) I’m an admitted karaoke-junkie so I thought it was pretty sweet! No one needs to see those photos though… ;)
Thanks again Celeste & Troy!!! I love you guys!!
