Lori & Jim’s wedding details were beautiful, simple and classy, and practically perfect in every way!  Take a look at some of my favorites!

They used a huge cork board made from wine bottle corks for the place cards – it was dreamy!  They had to drink a LOT of wine to make it, but I’m sure it was worth the effort ;)  Before they pinned all the cards on it, I had to play with it a bit!

Lori + Jim — Mack House at Cape Cod Wedding in Film

 Gatsby inspired Cape Cod Wedding (Chatham, MA)

I am primarily a digital photographer, but I started out shooting all black & white film weddings – and I miss it sometimes!!  So, every once in a while I take my film cameras along to a wedding and have a little fun with film.  This time I even used some, gasp, COLOR film!  Haha, haven’t done that in YEARS!  Totally worth it though :)

Panoramic of the girls getting ready.  Shot on my Wideluxe with Kodak Tri-X 400.

 Are you ready for this?!  Lori, in her Jenny Packham dress and Jim as dapper as can be, were married at the stunningly beautiful Mack House in Chatham on Cape Cod. It was an amazing day, and these two looked like they were straight out of a movie!

Gatsby inspired Cape Cod Wedding (Chatham, MA)

Lori & the girls got ready at the Mack House where the wedding was held – love that space!  She had these cute pink robes for each bridesmaid with their initial on them – so fun!

Lori & Jim were totally done with portraits, but I just HAD to sit them down for a moment in this beautiful light!  And then they did this… and it’s my favorite photo of the day!  So glad we took that extra 2 minutes to make it happen!

 Oh, I’m so excited to share this weekend of wedding excitement with you!  Let’s kick things off with Lori & Jim’s clam bake rehearsal dinner at Lori’s parents’ house!

Gatsby inspired Cape Cod Wedding (Chatham, MA)

Best thing about having the party at home was that Kayla could come!!  She had an awesome time wondering around, getting her belly rubbed by pretty much everyone, splashing in the creek, and begging at tables :)  She looks so innocent here though!

I love getting to be a part of the rehearsal dinner, and the whole weekend of celebrations.  It’s such a great opportunity to meet all of your favorite people in the world and get everybody comfortable with being photographed by me.  So on the wedding day, not only are you totally comfortable and confident, but so are all your family and closest friends!  It’s so great!!!
