A beautiful setting with meaning to the couple. Check. Clean and simple locations that don't distract from the event. Check. An A+ vendor team who brings their game face. Check. A day-of timeline that doesn't try to cram in too much and allows the couple to feel un-rushed. Check. A lively bunch of family and friends who pour their love on the couple. Check. And finally, two people that are head over heels for one another and make their lives more full by constantly raising the bar for each other to bring out the best in the other. Check check check. It was such a pleasure capturing Laura + Chris' Wedding. Matt and Chuck made for a dream team together and we're loving the photos that represented such a loving and wonderful day. Congratulations Laura + Chris! We know you'll share many years of happiness and adventure.

Jillian + Pat = Married

Jillian and Pat's Newport Wedding (shot by Chuck!) is about as lovely as they come. There is nothing quite as nice as two college sweethearts who have grown into adults together and are taking the next chapter in life by storm. Newport always photographs beautifully, but we are especially smitten with Chuck's work with Jillian and Pat despite the gail force winds they contended with. We love that they had their ceremony on campus where they met at Salve Regina University and thought their stylish and bright pops of color accented the backdrop of the ocean quite nicely.  Jillian and Pat, the two of you have been so wonderful to work with. We couldn't be happier for you and wish you nothing but the best! Congratulations!

Erica + Mike = Married

If you're anything like me, you're probably drooling at all of the gorgeousness by the end of this post. Erica and Mike were married on a beautiful August day that was filled with sunshine, laughter and SO many stunning details. From the very beginning, we were beyond excited to capture their wedding at beautiful Belle Mer in Newport, Rhode Island. Some of our favorite memories of the day were their very sweet ceremony, the heartfelt and thoughtful toasts, and that stunning driftwood table (I might be begging Santa for one this year...). We love shooting in Newport, and if you've been thinking about getting married there, Erica and Mike's photos should help convince you how stunning it can be! Special thanks to our girl Erin for joining the Summer Street Team for the day and sharing her talents behind the lens. Congratulations Erica and Mike! We hope you're sipping Chianti in Italy for us right now. :)

Charlene + Andrew = Married

 

 

There are some days, scratch that, MOST days that we feel completely blessed to have the job we do. Weddings like Charlene and Andrew's exemplify our feelings times 100. Yes, weddings are beautiful events filled with flowers, beautiful dresses and freshly shaven faces. You don't have to twist my arm to enjoy photographing beautiful things....it's inspiring and fun. But all of those things are nothing if you don't have LOVE and JOY. This is what makes our job different than just shooting magazine or blog styled shoots. Charlene and Andrew's wedding was filled with so much happiness. They are better together than apart, and it was clear to everyone that their passion for life and each other far surpassed the glamour and glitz of a fancy wedding day. That isn't to say that their wedding wasn't beautiful. It was STUNNING and every detail was perfectly placed. But despite all of those things, their biggest priority on their wedding day was each other - and it was so joyfully obvious. They exchanged vows at their meeting place and Alma Mater, Bryant University and  The Eisenhower House in Newport, Rhode Island was a perfect backdrop for their laid back tented reception. We absolutely loved shooting their portraits on the perfectly New England coastline in Newport and have to say that our favorite moment of the day was when Andrew surprised Charlene with a song he had written her during the reception. We actually think he may have a career as a rockstar ahead of him (seriously). Charlene and Andrew, Congratulations. We are so happy to have shared in your big day and wish you a lifetime of adventures!
