This past weekend I had the wonderful privilege of shooting Dianne and Riccardo’s wedding in Andover, MA. It was a HUGE wedding, with HUGE energy, and above all HUGE love. There is nothing like getting the opportunity to get to spend a whole day with fantastic people documenting, and I am looking forward to sharing photos from the day with you all soon!

It was a beautiful day.

I couldn’t have begun this year’s weddings any better than the day I had with Lizzy and Gavin. When you get to photograph moments like I did at this wedding I am deeply humbled at what I get to do for a living. It is these opportunities that keep me excited about being a wedding photographer. To say Lizzy and Gavin were overjoyed would be an understatement. The love they share and the ways their family wrapped themselves around both of them was such a cool thing to witness. Here is a little glimpse into the story of the day.

Ceremony: Calvary Baptist Church, Peabody, MA
Reception: Hellenic Center, Ipswich, MA

Congrats again Lizzy & Gavin! It was such an honor to be there documenting your special day.

This past weekend began my 2012 weddings, and it really could not have begun on a better note. Some weddings are wonderful days celebrating the beauty of what’s happening all around me… and some weddings are far more than that. It was such a rich day to be able to photograph and I felt so truly honored to have been there. The joy overflowing from Elizabeth and Gavin was so deep and rich that not a single person could escape. It was just fantastic.

Looking forward to sharing with you all the photos. But for now, a little taste (hehe):

Sometimes things happen. People + adventure + way too much delicious food/drink.

That equation is the recipe for AWESOME.

Two of my closest friends I have made in this short life I’ve had live in the far away city called Denver. It had been 3 years since I had seen one, the other it had been since his wedding day in August. Though there are no photos here to show the adventures with Matt, I am looking forward to getting my film back to share some of those moments. But for now, some moments with dear friends… a group knitted together via Evans Hall, Uganda, Wheaton College, Springfield MO, and The Head and The Heart. It was a beautiful reunion with these fellow travelers. And let me tell you, it was NON-STOP.

Miss you all already…

I often get to see sunrises these days, but this past weekend I had the opportunity to spend one with Dianne and Riccardo. These two are getting hitched next month, and I am quite excited about getting to be there to document their day. We had a wonderful time on an early morning shoot in the heart of Boston. It’s not often you see the streets around Faneuil Hall completely empty, so it was fun to explore the space without having to worry about folks getting in your shot.

Dianne and Riccardo have so much great energy and were a joy to work with. I’m looking forward to sharing with you all a glimpse of their wedding in just a few weeks. But for now, enjoy!

Dianne & Riccardo — It was wonderful getting to spend some time with you guys, looking forward to the wedding next month!

There were lots of reasons why this past weekend was memorable. First and foremost it was a significant event in my sister’s life as she took the public step of being baptized into the Church (of the Catholic flavor). It was such an honor for me to be there to support and celebrate with her. I could not be more excited and proud of her.

In addition to the Easter Vigil service on Saturday evening, Sunday was a huge celebration of the gift of family, as all of my immediate family–my half-bro’s fam included–gathered together (an occasion that happens once a year if we’re lucky). My brother in-law’s mother and husband were also able to join us. You don’t often get days with people who know each other so and at the same time love being together. I am eternally grateful I have been blessed with a family that finds joy in being together, and immediately begins counting the days to the next meeting.

Photos help me tell stories and remind me of stories I need to hear. So here is a bit of that from this weekend:
