Jason & Shauna The Meeting House, Tiverton, RI November 1'st 08

Our Last wedding of our second season out. A nice day in RI to wrap up our season was all we needed. Shauna and Jason are the most down to earth, calm, collective people we have had all year. Their great spirits carried throughout their short winded ceremony, finger food reception, and their quaint gathering at the Meeting House in Tiverton, RI. They couldn't have had a warmer day!!! We left NH wrapped in top the line polartech fleeces, gloves and scarfs to shoot all day in short sleeved shirts!
A lovely catering company call Smoke and Pickles filled everyones tummies with an array of finger foods. From grilled pizza, lobster rolls, smoked chicken, and traditional lentil tortillas stuffed with curried goodies!! Everybody at the wedding really loved the short, hilarious ceremony well spoken by Jason's college buddy PJ, who was an absolute doll and pleasure to meet!
We can't thank this couple enough for having us be apart of their humorous planning emails, the actual wedding and a future thanks to many more hilarious email we will share together. We REALLY hope you enjoy the photos!!

Megan's Senior Portraits.

So occasionally time allows us to do other types of photography. That hasn't been too often this year. We had the pleasure of shooting long time friends, (practically family) Katelyn and Megan Fontaine. Megan is a senior at Kingswood this year and we were so excited to get to capture some unique shots for her. I think they'll really stand out in her yearbook since we took her to Kittery Maine, a different scenery from Wolfeboro! We visit Seapoint beach, Fort McCleary, and some randoms persons barn that we all fell in love with!
We brought Katy along to get some amazing sister shots, you can see the love!
Thanks to the both of you!!

Derek & Melissa- Nantucket, MA

Derek and Melissa had an intimate wedding right on the beach on Nantucket Island.
A first time visit there for them and us. What a beautiful island, and not mobbed this time of year.
Derek and Melissa accompanied by their three wonderful daughters, and grandparents had and easygoing, relaxed wedding. Derek is a firefighter in Derry, NH and was dressed in the traditional formal fireman suite.
The minister was great, he made sure the girls were right there through the whole ceremony, and didn't let them get too distracted, which is a task in itself. The girls were so excited they could all call themselves sisters!
Beautiful couple, beautiful daughters.
We all had a great time scooting around in the rented jeep, although Melissa and I could stand never trying to get into the back of one of those things again haha.

Derek and Melissa are holding a Reception in Manchester NH on the 18'th, so blog #2 will arrive shortly.

Brian & Judy - September 20'th 2008 Algonquin Club, Boston MA

This wedding was over the top and every way! Amazing couple, amazing venue, and amazing friends! You could tell there was so much effort put into making this wedding an event every one remembered forever. From the gorgeous flower arrangements that stood nearly four feet tall to Judy's stunning dress, (She looked like a princess!)
The Algonquin club was spot on every minute of the day! A big thanks to Lassaad for keeping us all in order!

A MASSIVE thanks for Brian and Judy for having us photograph their big day, Hope your honeymoon to Europe is everything you imagined! We'll never forget this wedding, no matter how many we photograph!

Kyle & Julie Ricker, September, 2008

Congrats Kyle and Julie! Your wedding was so much fun, and right up my alley, and your guests loved it too! Down and dirty yet elegant all at the same time. A mixture of friends, family, and of course animals came together for a short ceremony and a big party! Angus (Kyle and Julie's pug) made about everyone tear up ((even me and I've been to a ton of weddings))
He sat beneath Julie's feet, dressed to impress patiently waiting his next move. Then followed Kyle and Julie out of their ceremony. None of this planned mind you. It was sweet as could be.
This entire day could be a novel I swear. From the amazing rope swing stunts into the river, a little mud fighting, a horse drawn wagon, awesome color scheme and flowers and a boat load of cool people!
Everything fell into place, and we beat the rain!!!
Nothing could be better for these down home folks. Enjoy your trip to Jefferson!!
We enjoyed every minute of this wedding, It really said New Hampshire all over it!!

Joshua & Jillian ~Childhood Friends~

August 22, 2008 -Joshua & Jillian Stevens-

Josh and Jill have been together what seems to be forever. We all grew up together in the small town of New Durham. I remember them dancing at the 5'th grade dance and everything. It was almost surreal for all of us to see them get married, It was ACTUALLY happening. All throughout the day everyone was saying, OMG! They are really getting married!
Gunstock put on a great wedding!

Obviously Dan and I had a blast shooting the wedding since these are all very close friends of ours. It was an honor to do a friends wedding! It meant so much to us to photograph this wedding. To create images for such close friends, that we know will hang out their walls until the end of time is truly something special.
I will wish you two the best of luck, but I know you'll have a great married life, be excellent parents and be living in your dream house in no time.
It was great to see everyone!!

Curtis & Jaclyn ~8-8-08~

The number '8' is as lucky as you can get in numerology obsessed China. After all, 8 on its side is the symbol for infinity, which must be a good thing right?!
Curtis and Jaclyn are as laid back as it gets. Having a small gathering in a beautiful place was all they needed for their unique wedding. Held at the largest wine cellar in New England, the Stonehedge Inn located in Tyngsboro, MA on a stunning Friday night. This dreadful non stop rain seemed to let up for a couple hours, just long enough to do the ceremony and formals outside, and thats all we needed. The sky was so pretty after the storm, bright but dark and moody. Their accent color is amazing, ORANGE! Doesn't get better than this.
Congrats to them both, and we wish you an amazing bright and happy future together. Thanks for having us! -Dan & Jeni

Tom & Carol Married July 26'th Colby Hill Inn

Tom and Carol had a sweet small wedding at the Colby Hill in located in Henniker, NH. After all the rain these days everyone was so delighted with the bright shining sun. Tom and Carol's guests were gifted with fresh picked local blueberries, a thoughtful gift I think, and also a gift of all the songs they picked for their big day. So original! I love it!
Everything fell right into place as planned and it was a beautiful wedding. I hope to see pictures of their honeymoon to the Florida Keys soon!
Congratulations to them both! We wish them a happy future!
