Dana & Frank’s Wedding – Charlevoix, Michigan

August 10th, 2011

Dana and Frank had a beautiful wedding ceremony right on Lake Charlevoix, followed up by reception at the Dhaseleer Events Barn. This was my first trip to Michigan, and it turned out to be a gorgeous weekend. Dana and Frank (mostly Dana!) incorporated a lot of personal touches such as the scrabble neck tie clips for the groomsmen – Frank actually proposed to Dana by hiding the engagement ring in the letter bag during a game of scrabble. I was a big fan of the late night hot dog bar – a hot dog and a Bell’s Two Hearted Pale Ale hit the spot for me after close to ten hours of shooting!

Madalene & Sam’s Wedding – LaPorte, Colorado

July 27th, 2011

Sam and Madalene celebrated their wedding in LaPorte, Colorado in the back yard of her family’s home. The theme was 1930s – family and friends were dressed very well for the occasion! Madalene and Sam planned many nice personal details for the wedding, my favorite of which was Madalene walking into the ceremony to Rhapsody in Blue played over an antique radio rigged up as an ipod dock. Sam gave me a great late night surprise when he tipped me off that he and his friends would be doing some fire breathing out on the lawn – that’s the first time I’ve seen that at a wedding!

Caroline & Justin’s Wedding – South Stoke, England

July 1st, 2011

I travelled all the way to England to photograph Caroline and Justin’s wedding in South Stoke, West Sussex. They found an amazing venue for their wedding and put a lot of work into creating a magical day for all of us who were lucky enough to be there. The blessing ceremony was held in St. Leonard’s church, which I was told was built in 1082 AD with the reception following in a nearby barn.

Neo & Peter’s Wedding – Jake’s – St. Elizabeth, Jamaica

May 23rd, 2011

I met Neo and Peter last summer at Peter’s brother Michael’s wedding, and I was lucky enough to be able to see them dance their way down the aisle at Jake’s in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica on Treasure Beach. Dr. Neo and Dr. Peter both practice medicine in Africa; Peter in Rwanda where they met, Neo in Botswana where she was born (soon to be reunited with Peter in Rwanda), and both occasionally in Boston. The night before the wedding, I took some pictures of Neo and Peter and some family members from both sides in the traditional clothing they wore for their first wedding in Botswana which was a few months ago. My wife Leah and I spent a week down there (tough work but somebody has to do it!) – it rained most afternoons, but the rain held off for the wedding day.

Neo and Peter took another week together in Jamaica to wind down from all of the wedding festivities – they were fantastic hosts!

Anna & Bennett’s Wedding – San Francisco, California

May 19th, 2011

Anna and Bennett’s wedding was held at the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco, California. We did some portraits out on Chrissy Field, which has a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, and at The Palace of Fine Arts, which is also nearby. Anna and Bennett both just finished medical school and are moving to San Diego to start their residencies. We were blessed with a perfectly clear day.
