Coastal New England Engagement Session

Brynn and Tom’s engagement session in downtown Newburyport was filled with all the summer coastal charm you could imagine. It felt like they had stepped out of a Nantucket postcard and right into downtown Newburyport. Cedar shakes, bushes of sea roses, old stone walls, a cotton candy sunset - could it get anymore New England?! Living. on the North Shore and getting married in Chatham later this year, the coast of New England is an important part of Brynn & Tom’s relationship and every day life. It was a joy to capture Brynn & Tom’s relationship amongst the historic charm of Newburyport, a place that they feel right at home.

Pelham House Cape Cod Wedding Photos

Julie & Ryan waited almost two years to tie the knot so when their day finally arrived everyone was thrilled to be together to celebrate. In classic summer on the Cape style, it was a hot and brilliantly sunny day. The ocean sparkled just off the beach of the Pelham House Resort - the perfect backdrop for Julie and Ryan’s laidback beach celebration.

The day was filled with hues of green and sky blue, matching perfectly with the modern coastal vibe of the Pelham House. Julie and Ryan couldn’t have been more happy to be getting married - no nervous jitters for them, just smile for days.

Julie & Ryan’s day was capped with the most perfect sunset, they sky turning a cotton candy pink, a gift for this deserving couple.

Costal Maine Engagement Photos

Phil is a Maine fisherman and the coast plays an important role in Jess & Phil’s relationship. And being the dog owners of one rambunctious Husky, they spend much of their time outdoors in the Pine Tree State, enjoying all that Maine has to offer, including its beautiful coastlines.

One of their favorite spots, Fort Foster, is a place they visit often usually with their pup Boon and often early in the morning. They love the diversity of the landscape and the every changing nature of the coast as the tide ebbs and flows. This is a place that they feel right at home and made for the perfect backdrop for their engagement session.

Fittingly, we met early in the morning - just like they do every. day to walk their pup Boon through this coastal Maine park. With the fort ruins, rocky coast and wooded forest, Fort Foster offered just a little bit of everything for their session, including some epic landscapes. What can be better?!

“These photos are beautiful! I’m obsessed and can’t even pick favorites there are so many I love. Thank you so much for capturing these moments, we cannot wait for the big day!”

South Dartmouth Massachusetts Engagement Photos

South Dartmouth, Salter’s Point in particular, holds a dear place in Cat’s heart. After all, this special slice of coastal Massachusetts has been in her family for over 3 generations and has become an incredibly important part of her family’s history - and now with Tommy.

Cat and Tommy knew that they wanted to host their engagement session at the family home and I was thrilled when they invited me down to explore the quaint neighborhood of summer cottages & sweeping coastal views.

Cat & Tommy eased into their session in the comfort of this familiar place, the family home. They then shared more of the neighborhood with me including the private beach with summer cottages dotting the landscape and panoramic views of the ocean. It was coastal New England perfection and I was honored to have been granted access to such a special and meaningful place.

The Chanler Newport Wedding Photos

Lauren & Freddy waited a very long time to celebrate their wedding day so when the day finally arrived there was palpable anticipation of the day’s festivities. It began with a heavy and dramatic fog that rolled in off Easton Bay and drifted onto the Cliff Walk of Newport. As Lauren got ready in the Renaissance Room of The Chanler, Newport, the fog slowly cleared and the sun poke through just in time for their First Look on the front lawn.

Throughout the day it was clear just how loved and celebrated Freddy and Lauren are. From the gushing toasts to the endless smiles, everyone was delighted to finally have the opportunity to celebrate Freddy & Lauren.

I think Freddy’s Dad expressed it best, “Obviously a parent doesn’t have a lot of say in whom their child dates and more importantly who they choose to marry. But if we did have a say we love a young woman with a kind and caring heart, a generous and giving spirt, a smart and creative intellect, and a loving adoring affection for our son. Well we didn’t have to put in that order because Lauren is all of those things. There’s not doubt in my mind, Freddy, you’ve found your soulmate”.

The Chanler, Newport provided the perfect backdrop for their day, a mix of casual elegance and historic charm - classic Newport vibes throughout. I’m so excited to share their day with you!

Connemara House Tospfield, Engagement Photos

After falling in love with the private feel and location of Connemara House in Topsfield, Mary & Ty knew that this beautiful and historic estate on the North Shore of Massachusetts was the perfect place to host their wedding. Atop a field overlooking a field of apple trees, Connemara offers pristine manicured grounds and gorgeous views of the surrounding valley. For their engagement session, Mary & Ty wanted to celebrate their wedding location and chose to leisurely explore the house grounds on a beautiful spring evening.

Captured by our talented associate photographer Lauren, Mary & Ty’s engagement session was the epitome of spring. The estate’s expansive selection of fruit trees were just in bloom and the main house painted in stately white, stood as a beacon amongst the lush green landscape. Having fallen in love with the historic property, Mary & Ty felt right at home on the Adirondack chairs that overlooked the flowering trees. And who wouldn’t love a quiet moment alone amongst such beauty?

Singing Beach Club Wedding Photos

Though downsized from their original plan, Colby & Jen made sure that every moment of their wedding day was magical - and it truly was. Their joy to be together is infectious and the intimate nature of their celebration meant that they could share that joy with each guest who attended. To witness the small and big moments they celebrated together was such an honor and made capturing their day so much fun.

Each with close ties to the North Shore, Colby & Jen chose details and locations that reflect this unique part of Massachusetts. Jen got ready in the home she and Colby share together, a historic carriage house with classic New England touches. Colby prepped for the day at his childhood home not far from the beach and their venue.

For the ceremony and reception Colby & Jen chose the Singing Beach Club, a private beach club located directly on the shore of Singing Beach. The club’s location provides sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean and offers a classic beach club feel with accents of vibrant navy and crisp white. The manicured and private grounds were an intimate respite for their ceremony and cocktail party on the lawn. With a paired down guest list Colby & Jen were able to greet each of their guests, sharing laughs and hugs with deep appreciation to be together.

Some of my favorite moments of the year were captured during Jen & Colby’s celebration - the genuine joy and happiness to celebrate amidst such an uncertain and challenging year was an honor to photograph.

Spring Wedding at Granite Links

Originally scheduled for a spring 2020 celebration, like many couples, Wes & Michelle found themselves postponing their wedding day to the following year. It was well worth the wait and this past spring they finally had the chance to celebrate their journey surrounded by the important people in their lives. 

Their day was unseasonably hot but you wouldn’t have known, because despite the oppressive heat, Michelle and Wes were determined to enjoy every minute of their long awaited day, no matter the weather. In fact, it was this infectious joy that was my favorite part of capturing Wes & Michelle’s day - the perfect accessory.

Elegant Spring Wedding at The Crane Estate

Originally from the Midwest, Mary Beth & James, envisioned their wedding day to be one of bringing their two families together all while sharing with them the unique beauty that is the North Shore of Massachusetts. The Crane Estate with its historic mansion, manicured gardens and sweeping view of Crane Beach, offered their guests a luxurious experience all while introducing them the beauty that is New England in the summer.

James & Mary Beth’s black tie affair filled was with meaningful touches throughout - such as the Omega Moonwatch from Radcliffe Jewelers gifted to the groom, the heartfelt toasts shared by their parents or the heirloom engagement ring purchased at the same store James’s parents purchased their own engagement ring years before.

Mary Beth chose a palette of forrest green to accent the day, which complimented the gorgeous natural backdrop of the Crane Estate. Soft florals filled the tented reception while a delicious array of passed hors d'oeuvres entertained guests during cocktail hour.

As one who is from New England may know, weather is always variable, no matter the time of year. So when presented with a beautiful day, one does not take it for granted. Mary Beth & James has a gorgeous spring day, punctuated with a cotton candy pink sunset - the perfect ending to a perfect day.

Coastal Wedding with Kate Murtaugh Events

Brittany dreamed of a wedding day filled with pink details, as bright and cheery as her radiant personality. Hues of rose gold, peach pink, and white accented Mateusz & Brittany’s coastal New England celebration, expertly designed and executed by Kate Murtaugh Events & Design . Brittany shared with me before the wedding that her “dream day is a fun lighthearted party that we can enjoy and be present for.” I think Brit and Mateusz acheived just that.

After a morning of primp and pampering Brittany & Mateusz invited their guests to an intimate ceremony, where they shared their emotional and heartfelt vows, supported by their closed loved ones. Following, their guests were treated to lawn games & appetizers capped off by a beautiful cotton candy sunset.

Brittany gushed about Mateusz, “My favorite thing about my fiancé is how he supports me, makes me laugh and always pushes us to look toward the future.” Their supportive and FUN relationship is an inspiring example and it was a joy to capture their day.

Modern & Elegant Wedding at Cliff House, Maine

Hannah & Rob’s wedding day was a dream come true and not just because of the epic feat it was to bring this day together in the height of the Covid crisis. From start to finish the day was beautifully executed by Hannah’s sister and planner Kate of Kate Evans Events with gorgeous details throughout. Add in the fact that Hannah and Rob are one of the sweetest and most welcoming couples, well it made capturing their day an absolute dream.

As head of Boston University’s Covid response team, Hannah knew a thing or two about hosting an event during this unprecedented time and ensured that her guests were not only safe but had a great time celebrating too. Having had almost an entire year off at that point from capturing a wedding day, it was a thrill to document Hannah & Rob’s day - masks, Covid tests, temperature checks and all.

Having visited the Cliff House as a child, Hannah had fallen in love with this magnificent resort on the rocky cliffs of Maine. Directly on the water, the property offers sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean with dramatic rocky cliffs (hence Cliff House), dramatic waves and gorgeous sunsets. As a lover of the ocean, it was a dream to work in such gorgeous New England scenery with a couple who appreciated it’s beauty just as much.
