Anything you do for nearly two decades can start to feel a little monotonous. While each and every one of the weddings I photograph are unique and I treat them that way, there is still the risk of things becoming too familiar. This is especially true being in a creative field like wedding photography. So when …

Weather is second only to available light on a wedding photographer’s list of “things to lose sleep over.” Weather is a very limiting factor as it can dictate where, when, and how long you have to photograph a couple on their wedding day. This can be especially difficult when you are at one of your favorite locations, like …

I’m going to come right out and say it: I love shooting at the Smith Barn in Peabody, MA. There’s something interesting to see, and photograph, at every turn. Apple season is definitely a cherished part of fall for New Englanders. It is not uncommon for families to visit orchards and spend countless quality time together …

The autumn always ushers in a different kind of wedding, one that is definitely unique to the Northeast. With all the changes in color and lighting, you just can’t beat a fall wedding in New England. That is unless you are shooting at a beautiful venue like the Walpole Country Club in Walpole, MA. This was the obvious choice …

Shooting in a new location breaths life into the creative process. While I appreciate the benefits of familiarity when photographing a wedding, its exciting when I am challenged and inspired by new places. Take, for instance, Jonathan and Lauren’s wedding, which took place at the Riverhouse at Good Colorado River. The Riverhouse offers beautiful scenery of lush …
It has been said that art imitates life. Perhaps that is why as people we are able to connect with works of art on such an emotional level. For Paul and Andrea, their deep emotional connection as a couple is with the Disney animated feature, Up. I am not going to spoil the plot for anyone who …

November is not the most obvious choice for autumn weddings in New England. It does not have the reputation that September and October enjoy due to the vibrant colors of the turning foliage. It is the month when clocks are turned back, launching the Northeast into progressive darkness. And there is the obvious chill in the air …

It’s always a roll of the dice with the weather when shooting a March wedding in New England. But with a beautiful location like Spring Valley Country Club in Sharon, MA and an amazing couple, not even rain could stop us from creating some truly beautiful wedding photography. These two were so in love that they weren’t about to …
Massachusetts is a wonderful place to live and to work as a wedding photographer. It is remarkable in its many different landscapes. In one weekend I can capture images of mountains, the ocean, dense urban areas, and secluded rustic farmlands. One of my favorite areas of Massachusetts is the North Shore. This stretch of coastline, which is slightly more …

Out of all the vendors involved in making a wedding happen, it is the photographer who spends the most time with a couple on their special, albeit stressful, day. So needless to say, being a people person is an important trait to have. You have to be adaptable to people’s different personalities and how well …

Every moment of a couple’s wedding day is precious. Woven together, they are the individual fibers that create the tapestry of memories from their special day. That is why I approach wedding photography the way I do. Many of my clients often remark that I captured moments they don’t even remember happening. For Joe and Gina, there …

As a wedding photographer, I am always willing to “go the distance,” especially if that distance takes me to the gorgeous Candlewood Inn in Brookfield, CT. Thanks to Barry and Jodi, I got to shoot at this amazing venue for the first time. With its landscape comprised of the pristine Candlewood Lake flanked by rolling hills, …

Nothing can put your nerves and skills to the test like shooting a wedding for the daughter of a 30 year veteran wedding photographer. While wedding photography has been a way of life for Sonia and her family for three decades, when it came to shooting her and Jaesun’s Portuguese wedding, it was about anything but intimidation. The bride, and her gracious family, immediately …

I like to believe all of the couples I work with are soulmates, but when it came to Brian and Jess there is no denying that these two are made for each other. They have the most amazing chemistry, which is something that can’t be faked or created in a photograph. So I was really excited to photograph their …

Booking a wedding at a new location can be a mix of inspiration and intimidation. Having worked as a wedding photographer in New England for nearly two decades, I have become acquainted with a large number of area venues and familiar with how to photograph each. With booking a new venue, I get to be …
