JR and Big T






After Ben and I raided the Vera Wang model shoot and stole Jessica and Ted, we had a wonderful time practicing our technique with these two.

what?

Jessica and Ted were not stolen. They were real people. As in: real people actually look like this and get married. So weird, right? I haven't heard for sure, but I think they're unborn child might be the next Dali Lama. Based solely on genetics.

I could go on and on, but we just shot three weddings in three states this weekend so I'm having trouble finding words. Here's the basic deal:
Jessica Reynolds and Ted Cornell are two of the most kind and gentle souls you'll ever want to meet. Their families are unreal, their friends are fabulous, and their day on Sunday was perfect.
Thank you so much, JR and T. We love you both so much.
Willowdale Estate is where their reception was held, fyi.

Christine and Kevin





Ahhh....New Jersey in June.

Lil' warm, lil' sticky.

The weather did not effect Christine, the ultra relaxed bride du jour, whatsoever. In fact, I can't remember seeing a bride own her own dance floor quite like Christine did! She and Kevin were married in Chatham, NJ and the reception was in the backyard of Kevin's parent's home. It was such a nice party, the food was great, the DJ was fantastic...and even the bartender was rockin' the dance floor.
Thanks so much, C and K. We had a blast.
footnote: Ben Wight is a rock star. After capturing their gorgeous wedding, he drove us home safely to Massachusetts, pulling in the driveway at 2:30am. xoxoxo!

Chris and Laura






Cheeseburgers and mansions. We love our job.

Laura and Chris were married under gorgeous silver skies as the fog hung with a moody pout over the Atlantic behind them. Laura Richards and Chris Milligan, blessed with superly delicious genetics, were looking especially gorgeous on Thursday evening as they married each other. They tied that proverbial knot at The Elks Club. Naaaa, just kiddin. They were married at Mr Milligan's Little Mansion That Could, Astors' Beechwood.
good music, good food, good people, good venue. thanks Laura and Chris. Enjoy St.John...don't worry about the North East corridor of this country. We'll hold it down for ya until your return.
big love.

Danielle and Bo




We're not going to make a big deal of it, but....
it was threatening to rain all day on Sunday and finally started after we finished our shoot.
i'm just sayin...

Danielle and Bo are gorgeous, fun, and great sports when they're being photographed. What more can we ask for? Here's a little preview of our shoot with the Super Hots...

Meaghan and Manu, June 21st






Is it normal to bawl your eyes out every Saturday of the year because you love your clients so much? Sure hope so.
Cried again with Meaghan and Manu. They are so incredible nice, so fun, gorgeous, madly in love, (and generous and grateful and...). We had SUCH a good time last night! Meaghan's family is one of those great Irish Catholic Families that should have been extras on Good Will Hunting. Her brothers are so good looking they look like super heroes and Meaghan and Manu are so likable, it was hard not to get swept up in the excitement. So we did. The weather was perfect, Cohasset Harbor was lookin' pristine, the bride looked like a princess. Tough job. Someone has to do it.

YY2 in Chicago



Hitched Studios just returned from yet another life changer of a week. I know, I know, you've heard it before and we're starting to sound like we're crying wolf. How can The Little Wedding Photography Duo That Could really go to THIS many life changing workshops?
well...credit cards.
Anyway, we went to a workshop called YinYang2 hosted by the mind blowing husband and wife team, DQ Studios and the King of Wedding Photojournalism F8 Studio
We are so incredibly honored to have been able to be a part of such a talented group of photographers and learn from such masters in the field. We should also probably congratulate our clients because you guys get an inspired, growing, ultra excited team to photograph yer lovvvve. Good Choice with Hitched, kids. Good, good choice.

Kate, Jake, and Caterpillar




So, some of our clients have earth movers in their backyards, some have a swimming pool. Kate and Jake have both, and we plan to take full advantage of that. Their October wedding will be in their gorgeous backyard in Gardner, MA. To prepare for the event, Kate's wonderful father is clearing a parking lot for them with some extra Caterpillar equipment he apparently has lying around. And the Coolest Dad Toys award goes to....
And as for the pool.... well, let's just say Kate bought two wedding dresses and the pool is heated. More on that in October.

Laura and Ross!





Laura and Ross and 19 of their favorite people gathered at The Ye Old England Inn in Stowe, Vermont on Saturday, June 7th. It was Day One of our current heat wave, but Stowe was much cooler and it provided the backdrop for a perfect afternoon. Ross and Laura were so much fun! They let us take them all over Stowe village to find the perfect backdrops for their photographs. The highlight of the afternoon was when a bull in a herd of Holstein cows not-so-casually walked us out of the field they were grazing in. We dutifully obliged and left the field...Stowe provided us with endless beauty with a lot less opposition!
Laura and Ross, thank you so much. You were such willing sports, we're so grateful!
