Happy New Year!!!

What a wonderful year 2011 has been for Matt and I!! Between March and November we photographed 31 amazing weddings, countless engagement and trash the dress sessions, as well as embarking on some new photography ventures (more on that in the coming months)! We are so very thankful to all of our clients and friends who trust us to document such important moments in their lives and in turn allow us to live our dream!

Over the coming months we have lot’s of new projects to work on and goals we are setting to have 2012 be an even more fun and successful year! We look forward to sharing more with you!!

Here is a look at just a few of our favorite images of 2011!

Thanks!!

Meg and Dave Married | A Rockport, MA Destination Wedding

Ariel — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 22:02:53 +0000

Back in July I received a call from Meg who described Dave and her plans to have a very small and intimate fall wedding in Rockport, MA. Their wedding sounded wonderful and I crossed my fingers that Matt and I would end up being their photographers! So needless to say, after we met with them three days later and they decided that they’d like us to be their photographers, we were thrilled! Their day didn’t disappoint, the weather was perfect, the Captain’s House Bed and Breakfast where they held their ceremony and cocktail hour is right on the ocean and just beautiful! Dave’s 7 year old daughter, Lena, helped Meg get ready which was super cute. It was really important to Meg and Dave that we had plenty of time to get some awesome portraits of just the two of them so Meg made sure to leave time in between the ceremony and when everyone headed to dinner for just that. I think we succeeded in getting some great images of these two!

Before I share some of our favorite images, I can’t help but share (With Meg and Dave’s permission) the email we received from them the night we sent their slideshow along. Emails like this remind us how truly wonderful our “job” is!

Hi Matt and Ariel,

We are speechless.

We opened the link very late last night and we kid you not, I think we watched it sixteen times, and cried all the way through the entire thing. We were expecting to have a few wonderful photos–but instead, you put together this incredibly thoughtful, moving, and totally inspired montage, filled with the best pictures either of us has ever seen. We were just bowled over at your talent and how you captured the feeling of the day, and how you illustrated all these random and wonderful moments–many of which we were not conscious of ourselves, as they were happening. Your talents are not just in the technical aspects of what you do, and not just in capturing beautifully composed images, but also with making people feel comfortable–so comfortable that they are not truly aware that you are working hard every second to document events and emotions. All that on top of the fact that you are both so awesome to spend time with as people!

We really just don’t know what to say, except thank you so much for this.

We can’t wait to see more and will have the box of Kleenex standing by…..

Best and Fondest Regards,

Meg and Dave

Meg and Dave, we had a blast with you guys and are so happy that you are enjoying your images!

Okay, enough chatter! Here are the pictures!

I will keep the text short on this post :)
You might remember these guys from their engagement session that we photographed earlier in the year. They got married on an absolutely gorgeous weekend in September at the beautiful Museum of Science, all of their friends and family were amazing. It was such a fun wedding to be a part of!!

Beth and Jonah, Thank you guys so much for trusting us to capture your day, we were honored to be there!

Maureen and Matt Married | Elm Bank Wedding | Boston Wedding Photographers

Ariel — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 19:15:50 +0000

Here are images from Maureen and Matt’s wonderful wedding at Elm Bank just outside of Boston in Wellelsey, MA. These two were married on an absolutely gorgeous day in June (yes, June, that’s how behind I am with blogging!). I started off the day with Maureen and the girls at the house she grew up in a little west of the city. The ceremony took place at St. Mary’s in Brookline, I have to say it was definitely one of my favorite churches in the Boston area, not only is it really beautiful inside but their were absolutely no rules… other than be respectful :) The whole day was filled with cute details and Matt and I had a blast getting some fun couples portraits with just the two of them. We hope you enjoy these pictures!

Romana and Eddie Married | Boston Four Seasons Wedding | Part I

Ariel — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 12:09:39 +0000

Here is another June wedding I have to share with you! We had a feeling right from our first meeting with Romana and Eddie, that their wedding was going to be amazing! When they booked us, they had recently decided to have their wedding at the beautiful Boston Four Seasons, I have to say this really is one of my favorite hotels in Boston to photograph at. From a wedding vendors perspective, they are an absolute pleasure to work with and do a phenomenal job of keeping the day running smoothly for all. Needless to say, we knew that these two were going to be a blast to work with and they absolutely were! We showed up on the wedding day and Romana was getting her makeup done by the wonderful Dani Wagener. Once makeup was complete we had some time to take a few quick bridal portraits… Doesn’t Romana look gorgeous? I mean seriously! The whole day was wonderful straight through to the end of the reception. Stay tuned next week to see images from their ceremony, some wedding party pictures and the amazing reception (complete with Brazilian Dancers for entertainment!).

For now here are some favorites from the beginning of the day!

Meanwhile Matt was with the boys getting ready! Here are a few images from that!

I’ll end with just one of Romana on her way to the church! Love it!
