Private Estate Wedding on Boston's North Shore

It’s always a treat to photograph a wedding on my “home turf”, here on the historic North Shore of Massachusetts. It’s even more exciting to work with couples who also share a special connection to this coastal part of the state. When Cari & Cam contacted me to share details about their family centered wedding celebration hosted at a gorgeous private estate here on the North Shore I was thrilled. Full of charm and beautifully decorated, the expansive property offered a unique experience to Cari & Cam’s guests, many who were traveling from across the country to celebrate with the couple.

Expertly designing and executing the day was the team behind Prepped and Primped. Hues of creams, blues and greens accented the lush garden landscape of the estate. Guests danced the night away under a clear tent with perfect views of the starry sky above. Cari & Cam made their grand exit in a family friend’s vintage convertible - it was truly a night to remember!

Connemara House Wedding

Tucked away in the rolling farmlands on the North Shore of Boston sits Connemara House. Driving up to the main estate feels like stepping back in time and a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This privacy and tranquility of Connemara House is what just what drew Mary and Ty to select the estate to host their wedding. 

Taking full advantage of the sprawling grounds, Mary & Ty hosted their entire celebration from start to finish at Connemara - both getting ready in the main house, choosing their first look among the gardens and dancing the night away under a sailcloth tent. 

Relaxed elegance was the goal. With delicate floral arrangements, custom sips from Cisco Brewery and casual seating for guests along the lawns - it was exactly what Mary & Ty envisioned for the start of their new adventure as husband and wife.

Summer Wedding at Turner Hill with Prepped & Primped

Matt & Katie’s North Shore wedding was one for the books - on a perfect summer day they finally tied the knot in a personal ceremony in Marblehead, after waiting over two years for the moment to arrive. Thanks to the pandemic, their original plans had to be postponed but when the day finally came, Matt and Katie along with their loved ones, were beyond ready to celebrate this special couple.

Lovers of golf, they selected Turner Hill for is historic and charming estate nestled amongst on of the best golf courses on the North Shore. They leaned heavily into a classic & timeless style with preppy, nautical touches throughout, tying back to the coastal vibe of the North Shore.

For me, the BEST part of their day with the endless smiles. From the moment the day began to the final song on the dance floor, Matt & Katie could not keep their joy contained. Their warm and inviting personalities ensured everyone felt at ease and ready to celebrate, making sure each person who attended felt loved. They embraced their day with unreserved joy and appreciation.

Farm Engagement Session on Boston's North Shore

I first met Jared & Willoughby at Willoughby's family home, a sprawling working farm on Boston's North Shore. They will be getting married at this beautiful place later this summer and it was important to them for me to experience it for myself. I absolutely love how personal this place is to the couple, especially Willoughby, and how they are thoughtfully planning their wedding day to reflect their personal connection to the farm along with its beautiful natural backdrop. 

When it came time for their engagement session it made sense to explore the farm. We meandered through the tall tree groves and winding stone wall lined drives on a glorious summer evening. Just spending a few minutes here its easy to understand why Willoughby and Jared feel such a connection to this place.  

Jared and Willoughby thank you for inviting me to this place, a place that means so much to you. I can't wait for August!! Enjoy some of my favorites from their session!!
