Because sneakers will never be a mistake on a wedding day- especially at a place like Elizabeth Park because you could just spend hours wandering around this place. The Pond House Cafe is home base for the reception, but then you venture out into the gardens and find endless flowers, greenhouses, woodlands, bridges, secret paths, stone walls…the list is endless. I’m at this venue a LOT and because of the variety, I never get sick of it

There are some photo sessions I will never forget

Ramon and Adelaide worked with me on their engagement session back in 2019! I can’t even begin to process how much has happened in life both personally and in the world since then

But this still feels like it was yesterday. The water was ice cold. I remember holding my camera above my head as I slid into the water. I remember how these two had the time of their lives and embraced the chill for the sake of photos that showed their personalities

Iconic. That’s it.

Being a wedding photographer is just way too much fun. I just get to giggle with awesome couples all day

Caitlin and Patrick’s first dance song starts like “They got married in a hurricane. One vow to the other now she’s changing names”

These two are not new to the roller coaster of life and their wedding day at DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum was no exception. The day started off in a haze of smoke from the Canadian wildfires and ended with a rainstorm that would convince you it had finally passed, only to start back up again

Caitlin and Patrick didn’t blink twice at the chaos. They rolled with it, made the most of it, and made the day an explosion of color and joy despite it all

Getting married in an art museum helped. DeCordova is an absolute diamond venue. Amazing architecture, thought-provoking art, and views of Flints Pond in Massachusetts that make you feel like you’re in another world

I won’t be shutting up about this wedding any time soon
