Marilva + Michael

Marilva and Michael had a lovely wedding celebration in Narragansett, Rhode Island. The day had such a nice flow to it- nothing was rushed so there was time for the little moments we sometimes breeze by when we are busy, like lingering glances, extra long hugs, endless belly laughter...





The lovely bride...





Seeing each other for the first time...





Marilva has the best laugh- I can almost hear it in this image...





One of my favorites...





There were butterflies everywhere...











Love the simplicity of this one...





Absolutely in love with this image...





This image represents the overall mood of the day...







The reception was held at the Narragansett Towers (lots of beautiful natural light).







Some fun dancing going on...







Marilva + Michael,
Thank you for inviting us to be a part of your wedding day. It was pretty magical...

Crystal + Andrew

I have known Crystal since she was in middle school (as a friend of my sister) and I think she and Andrew have known each other even longer...I'm so happy to see the little family they've created. There is just a certain glow to them when the little one is around. Their wedding was one of those beautiful fall days that was so hopefully warm- perfect for taking pictures outdoors.

Getting ready...





The dudes arriving on the scene...









This guy was kind of a show stealer. Every time I turned around, he was doing something that needed to be photographed, but this one was the best. I can only imagine how much he must entertain his friends on a regular basis...





One of my favorite wedding party portraits of the season...Crystal and Andrew gave me 2 hours for portraits so we had some time to create some really awesome images.



And then there were two...



One of my favorites...











The whole family...



This is one of my favorite images of all time- that's the face I imagine one makes upon discovering they can fly...





I know I'm probably posting as many pictures of the little ones as I am of the bride and groom, but that's what happens when you invite sweet children to be a part of your wedding...especially ones that run around enjoying themselves in their own little world, completely camera-unaware.











I love the genuineness of the expression of this little girl.







Crystal + Andrew,
Thank you for your deep trust in my vision and giving me so much space within which to freely create images of your day.
