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 …

What better way to bid a fond farewell to summer than at the amazing Zukas Hilltop Barn in Spencer, MA? Thanks to Rob and Samantha, I got to spend my official last Saturday of summer doing what I love the most: photographing their wedding. With the billowy clouds, gorgeous sunset, and amazing light we had, …

Being a New England wedding photographer, I get to shoot in some really unique and beautiful locations. Many of these locations are thanks to Jim and Briana’s family. I first met Jim while photographing his brother, Tim’s wedding in Woodstock, VT. Last year, Jim’s sister, Maura, kept the tradition alive with her Waterville Vally wedding …

I don’t think I have ever met two friends with more in common than Donny and Mike. These two not only grew up together. They have followed each other through every major event of their lives, and have just about everything in common. They went to the same schools, married best friends (whose names just …

As a wedding photographer, I really enjoy the opportunity to work with many different cultures. Take, for instance, Angelo and Grace’s Tewksbury Country Club wedding in Tewksbury, MA. Both being Greek, it was very important to them to incorporate their culture into their special day. Their ceremony took place at the Holy Apostles Greek Orthodox Church in Haverhill, …

For me, the greatest compliment I receive as a wedding photographer is when a family continues to hire you to shoot their weddings. Referrals of all kind are great, but the people you work with the closest on a wedding day, and even after, are the families. Their willingness to continue to work with you …
While I lament the loss of summer just like everyone else, there is one thing I get excited about this time of year. As summer slowly fades into fall, the lighting in New England during this transitional period is breathtaking for photos. I think Nick and Eliza’s wedding was the first time this year I …

It does not take long to be welcomed into the fold by Chris and Jennilee’s close-knit, warm, and friendly family. That is why photographing their wedding felt less like work and much more like fun. Both bride and groom started their day by getting ready at the beautiful Salem Waterfront Hotel in historic Salem, MA. Thanks …

The beginning of fall always ushers in a special kind of wedding, one that is definitely unique to the area. With all the changes in color and natural lighting this time of year, you just can’t beat an autumn wedding in New England. That is unless you’re like Pierce and Allison and have your wedding at one …

You can always tell when two people are genuinely happy to be getting married. It’s an emotion that can’t be forced, faked, or director, no matter how many years you have been photographing people. Emotion is as essential to wedding photography as exposure. And while shooting at the beautiful Saint John’s Church in Worcester presented a …

It is always a welcome opportunity to return to the gorgeous Zukas Hilltop Barn in Spencer, MA. It has been a long standing favorite of mine for shooting weddings. Not only is the scenery and location exquisite, but the staff is remarkable. You are hard pressed to find a group more professional and friendly group of …
