Allyson and Cody - South Dartmouth, MA

Allyson and Cody were married on August 9, and I have to admit that this is one of my favorite weddings. Here are 16 images that were next to impossible to narrow down from the hundreds that I absolutely loved. The entire day was phenomenal - from the weather, the details and personal touches, to the undeniable support and love that Allyson and Cody have from their wonderful friends and family - it really was the perfect day.

The couple live on their sailboat in Annapolis, MD and when I asked where they were going for their honeymoon, they both shrugged in unison and said "We don't know. We'll sail somewhere, wherever."
I can't think of a better place to go.

Congratulations Allyson and Cody!

Keri and Ed, Happy Anniversary!

Ok, so I am cheating by posting this entry because it isn't a wedding. BUT, I had the pleasure of shooting Keri and Ed's wedding last year (7/7/07) and they just celebrated their one year anniversary in Newport, RI where they were married.
I was thrilled to hear that Ed wanted to surprise Keri with an anniversary celebration. I knew that she would be really touched, especially since the past year has been such a blur with the arrival of their new baby. Only.... my surprise turned to amazement (and then I think I fell over) when Ed explained he not only booked me again to be their photographer but he also got the same exact room at Ocean Cliff Resort they shared on their wedding night, he got the same caterers to make an identical mini wedding cake just for them, got the chefs to pull together the identical menu from their wedding meal, got the florist to recreate a smaller replica of their centerpiece.....am I forgetting anything? Oh yeah, and a violinist to serenade them all the while (which made their baby weep while the rest of us weren't far behind). Wow.
We had a wonderful time cruising through Newport and it was almost surreal to think an entire year has gone by so fast...

Annabel & David, Malibu CA

Just 48 hours after returning from shooting yacht racing in damp, chilly northern Italy, I found it quite easy to slip into the rhythm of sunny California... Trading foul weather gear for flip flops and surfing was fine by me! This three day wedding celebration was exactly what we hoped for - lovely weather, beautiful places and fantastic people. Here are just a few -

Looking forward to 2008!

2007 was a fantastic year. I truly consider myself lucky - I love my job and get to meet new and interesting people all the time. What's better than that? Looking forward to 2008!
