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!

Emily and Adam Engaged | Walden Pond and Charlestown Navy Yard Engagement Session

Ariel — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 19:11:51 +0000

Matt and I met up with Emily and Adam earlier this fall for their engagement session. We started off the session at Walden Pond out in Concord, MA, if you haven’t been there you should definitely check it out sometime! There’s a beautiful walking trail the circles the entire pond, lot’s of people kayak/swim during the summer time, We’ll definitely be going back to play (without our cameras)!

After we spent some time in the woods, we all headed to the Charlestown Navy Yard for some pictures. Adam lived right next to the Navy Yard when Emily and him first started dating so what better place to go back to for some images! The light was perfect by the time we got to Charlestown and parked, we had a blast wandering along the harbor and getting some awesome images with the ships and city in the background.

Hanging out with these two got us even more excited for their wedding next September at the gorgeous Crane Estate in Ipswich, MA!

Lot’s more weddings and engagement sessions to come, for now I hope you enjoy some of our favorites!

Ariel + Matt
