Nantucket weddings are special enough as it is, but this one kind of broke my brain in the most fabulous way. I may never get over it.

The sun never stopped shining. Mackenzie and Jake never stopped smiling. The crowds on Centre Street cheered as the post-ceremony Second Line parade went by. The fishermen at the beach all commented on how gorgeous everyone looked. My feet hurt from dancing. I absolutely adore these two and their families. I won’t stop posting this one for a long time 🩷🩷

This weekend, I’m heading out to one of my favorite places in the world to photograph a very special wedding. There is something so magical about Nantucket — it’s like the air is fresher. More elevated. And the sunsets? Dreamy.

Here are some photos from a few years ago when barefoot bridesmaids and a sparkler send-off were the vibe.

Same wedding. Posed vs. candid.

Sometimes these photos are only a split second apart.

I might give you a little direction. Put you in good light. Ask you to move closer. Give you somewhere to put your hands.

And then I watch. Because very often, the photo I’m waiting for happens right after the photo we set up — when you stop thinking about me, look at each other, crack up, exhale, or do something entirely your own.

After 20 years of weddings, I know that the difference between a portrait and a moment can be less than a second.

So yes, I’ll pose you when it helps.

But I’m always watching for what happens next.

Some days, I just don’t have anything brilliant to say. I’m a photographer, not a poet 😆

All of your beautifully considered details live a double life on a wedding day. Lucky them!

The tablescape before anyone sits down.

Pristine is lovely. But so is evidence that people actually lived in the room.

Which do you prefer?

I don’t think the wedding industry gets to decide what a bridal portrait is.

It might be something straightforward and lovely, like the last image in this series. Or it might be something less obvious—a moment Emma wasn’t even aware was happening. A bit of movement. A particular light. A feeling I noticed and knew I needed to photograph.

A portrait doesn’t have to be posed, polished, or perfectly composed. Sometimes it’s simply a moment that feels like her.

Emma trusted me enough to let me see those moments—and to do pretty much whatever I wanted with them. That kind of trust gives me the freedom to make photographs that feel like more than a pretty picture.

Because a portrait isn’t defined by a pose.

It’s defined by what I see.

These are some of the moments that make me giddy behind the camera. The moments that don’t belong to every wedding, but that appear from time to time and make me so happy.

I think staying curious is part of what makes someone a great photographer. It’s what keeps every wedding feeling fresh, every gallery feeling personal, and every celebration worth paying attention to.

And after all these years... I’m still finding new things to love.

When a wedding day feels this good, it’s really tough to choose images for a sneak preview. Kelsey and Liam were absolute rockstars in the humidity, but I think it’s pretty clear that even if it had been the dead of winter, they still would have brought the heat 🔥🧡❤️🎉🍾
