Alanna + Edgar's wedding, part 1

Alanna and Edgar discovered me through mutual friends. We met last year while they were living in DC and I visited for some work; we became fast friends. Their recent wedding in Boston was a great day for both of them, their families, and their friends. Here are a few from Alanna's preparations at a friend's house.








Jamie + Jim's wedding, part 4

We knew that post-ceremony outdoor light would be quickly waning, and that the temperatures would be quite cold, but we ventured out anyway, moving as much as possible while photographing. Jessica held a wireless flash off-camera for some of them, which became increasingly necessary as the sunlight faded.






Jamie + Jim's wedding, part 3

As a graduate of Saint Anselm, Jamie married Jim in the Abbey Church. What was unique, though, was that the ceremony was held in back part of church, in the choir stalls. This is where daily Mass and the Divine Office is said, and photographically it is almost an entirely different church: it's intimate, has stronger lines, and the background is the large (and thus bright) stained glass windows.

Jen and Dave's wedding was a mini-reunion for many of us, which gave many of the photo opportunities a special character. It also happened that some extra time at the beginning of the reception and relatively good light allowed me to catch some unguarded moments via a long lens.







Jen + Dave's wedding, part 1

Dave and I were friends at Saint Anselm, and he graduated from a couple years before I did. I saw him and met Jen last spring while we were in Albany for another friend's first Mass in his home parish as a priest. We chatted, and they still needed a photographer for their wedding. It was pure serendipity, and we were all excited and grateful.

Thanks to my friend Sara for assisting and seconding for the day. Here are a few from before the ceremony.
