Ashley + Joe — Exchange Conference Center Wedding in Boston

Spring Wedding at the Boston Exchange Conference Center

I’ve gotta be honest with you… I think Joe & Ashley’s wedding was my absolute favorite for 2014!  Maybe it was because they totally trusted me, and gave me the freedom to focus on the moments?  Maybe it was because we had an hour to ride around Boston shooting wherever we wanted with just the two of them?  Maybe it’s because they love black & white photography as much as I do?  Or maybe it’s because they fed me pizza after the ceremony?!  It’s hard to say… but just take a look, and I think you’ll understand!

I started with Ashley & the girls, and my lovely assistant Cristen, over at the Seaport Hotel

Rose + George — Boston Seaport Hotel Wedding

Wedding at Seaport Hotel in Boston

Rose and George were married at the Boston Seaport Hotel. It was such a lovely wedding. Rose had this amazing and unique kiwi and persimmon color scheme that was carried through almost every element of their day. Their families seemed so fun and supportive and absolutely thrilled to be witnessing their nuptials. And some Krista Photography alums Jessica and Albert were there! It’s always fun to see past couples out on the dance floor!

Krista and I started out with Rose and her ladies up in her hotel suite.

Katie & Joe’s New Year’s Eve Wedding – Boston

The 2009 wedding season ended with a bang!  Literally.  My last wedding of the year was Katie & Joe‘s rockin’ wedding at the Seaport Hotel on New Year’s Eve – complete with fireworks provided by the city of Boston!  This was the first time I’d ever photographed a wedding on New Year’s Eve, and I actually loved it!  I’ve always found New Years to be a bit of a let down – expectations are high for some big fun time, and it’s never quite as exciting as you’d hoped.  But celebrating at a wedding and dancing the night away with my camera in hand definitely did not disappoint!

The evening started with the bridesmaids helping Katie get ready.  She was so cute and excited that as soon as I got there she wanted to get into her dress!

I LOVED the shots of the girls helping Katie bustle her dress!   Melissa’s take was particularly beautiful…

My take on the moment…

After we got Katie all bustled, we ran outside to the bridge to the World Trade Center for a few night shots with the city lights.

And perhaps my favorite part was that Katie ended the night singing a little Journey with the band.  A girl after my own heart ♥

New Year's Wedding @ The Seaport Hotel - Boston

Katie and Joe – thank you so much for inviting me to document your wedding!  It was an absolute pleasure to spend New Year’s Eve celebrating with you and your friends & family!

And thank you, Melissa for giving up New Year’s with your husband to shoot with me!  You were a huge help, and so fun to work with… not to mention you got some great photos!  :)
