I had such a great time at this wedding. K & J wear their fondness for life and each other in a way that makes my job easy. Everyone else at the party seemed to shop the same designer. See here for yourself…
The event itself was lovely (even with the heat)
St. Paul’s Parish in Cambridge.
This is my shot titled “Hey there, wanna go to this dance with me tonight? All the cool kids are gonna be there…” It pays homage to the fact that this wedding was made possible by the fact that the couple met while teaching. No, they didn’t have their reception in a school gym, but the very lovely MIT faculty Club with the awesome view of Boston. I had just happened upon this row of lockers on the way downstairs to scout out some shots outside.
You can stage a good shot- but happiness is unmistakable and unmissable if you are ready to catch it when it runs past.

paaking in Haavad | Cambridge Engagemnt Session
I got to go around Harvard Square little bit ago to make some photographs with this great couple.
They were pretty great.
I grew up just outside of The Square but it was great to see it through the eyes of a student at the Graduate School of Design.
The (now closed down) Crate and Barrel store in the former Design Research Building. I had actually never noticed it before as a building. Designed in 1969 by the former Harvard Graduate School of Design chairman of architecture, Benjamin C. Thompson.
Here is the Larson Building
I actually went to preschool here. Thats right. I went to preschool at Harvard.
I was discharged once I started pronouncing my ‘Rs’.
They are sycamore trees. Drove me crazy – I had to look up what kind of trees lined Memorial Drive. I love that row.
The divinity building for a couple of divine photos. (yes, I can hear you groaning)
Such a great afternoon. Looking forward to the wedding guys! It is coming up soon!
They brought-the-fun Booth | Boston Wedding Photobooth
This was an AWESOME wedding. How can you tell, you might wonder?
You start with an incredible couple. Then check:
IF the engagement session started like this…(click here to see more)
IF the DJ tells you at the end of the night that he wishes he could have 2 more hours with the group… (Rock on Mr. Ed!)
IF the speeches are able to make the photographer cry…
and
IF the photos from the Photo Booth we had set up come out looking like this…
officially the cutest mother and daughters shot.
This sister of the bride and her husband were awful excited to gain a brother.
Bunny ears shall never go out of style and neither will happy couples.
This couple was too cute… And I think their own wedding may be coming up soon? Congrats!
People were being hung upside down. Thankfully there were no chandeliers within reach!
um…
aww…
These ladies brought their own sweetness to the party. Something to do with chocolate… Now I am distracted.
Dear K&J, Even when the world turns you upside down- may you find happiness.
If the bride’s parents look this happy, you know good things are to follow for a couple.
Sadly this couple didn’t leave a forwarding address.
Sometimes a girl just needs to be dipped and a guy just needs to be held.
da guys.
K and her married-for-62-years-grandparents. A couple who can cut a rug and leave the young in the dust.
Seriously. How wonderful is this family?
All the “new” parents together celebrating the arrival of their newly acquired, bouncing son and daughter in law.
I can’t wait to get through the actual wedding photos. I will be posting some sneak peeks soon!
Congrats again Kyle and Jeff! (And please don’t be proof reading my post- it is really late at night and the dog ate my spellchecker)
She worried he wouldn’t smile for the camera | Connecticut Wedding Photography
Some people feel less comfortable in front of the camera than others. I am one of those people myself.
I know, the irony.
These photos were from a great wedding down in New Haven, CT. The bride loves color and she did such a great job bringing her choices together.
One of the concerns that this lovely bride had was that I wouldn’t be able to capture her fiance (now husband) smiling. I won’t claim that he never resisted some of my attempts, BUT…
it turns out, all it takes to get him to smile was to look at her.
That is a good sign.
Below are some of the folks that lined up outside the church ready to shower the new husband and wife with bird seed.
The brides brother is the one below with the expression of GLEE at the prospect of pelting his sister and new husband.
Gotta love siblings.
Congrats again guys!
Memorial Drive Engagement Session | Cambridge Wedding Photography
I love it when a couple tells me they want to recreate a photo like one from their parents or grandparents. The bride-to-be mentioned that her grandparents have a photo from their wedding day that was taken in front of a gate at Harvard.
We started our session on Memorial Drive near the Skating Club and thought we would make our way down until we found the (a) gate.
But we didn’t know exactly were it was… Because of threatening weather, we jumped in my car for a drive a little further down where we were sure we would find a “Harvard Gate.” But alas the parking gods (nor the Cambridge police) were all to lenient with me. I must have used up all my credits during my youth.
But all that driving in circles did scare away the rain we went back to where we started and we were able to find some great spots along our walk down Memorial
and finally found that (or at least a similar) gate.
Looking forward to October!
