Elyse + Paul's E-Session!

I met up with sweethearts Elyse + Paul at the Burlington Intervale this summer. It is such a beautful location with colorful gardens, grassy fields, farm equipment and mosquitos the size of small aircraft. Elyse + Paul were such fun and so full of love for one another. I truly enjoyed capturing their playful spirit and we can't wait to photograph their wedding at the Burlington Country Club this fall!!

Presenting Mr. + Mrs. Onion!

If I could hand out an award for the most enthusiastic bride of all times it would be presented to Lindsey! Lindsey is a blogger on a very cool website for brides called weddingbee.com. She has helped countless brides with decisions on every aspect of their weddings from invitations, to picking out dresses, to boudoir sessions. She is the best resource imaginable, and she does it in her honest and thoughtful style.
Anyway, we were so fortunate to be her photographers because she has been the biggest cheerleader since their engagement session. It has been a complete blast working with her and ultimately photographing all of the fantastic people and details that made her wedding so special.
And it was amazing! She had dreamed of having an Italian-style dinner party and chose the perfect spot for it at Adrianas on the Church Street Marketplace in Burlington. While photographing her reception I couldn't help but feel overjoyed when the sounds of laughter and conversation filled the room and I realized that her dream was fulfilled.
It was an honor to be a part of Lindsey and Nate's amazing celebration! They are the perfect pair! :-)

Lindsey and Nate prepare for their big day...







Dana at Fresh Studio did another amazing job with the flowers!! I love the colors of the bridesmaid's bouquets...
how darling is this flowergirl!
We had fun running around at University of Vermont to do their photos. I adored Lindsey's dress, it's so fabulous and retro!



I wish I could remember what was so funny!
I love the way Nate is looking at Lindsey here...
Husband and wife!
Lindsey and Nate led their guests from the church to Adrianas for the cocktail hour and reception. It was awesome!
Just a few of the fabulous details...



Nate and Lindsey took a quick break from the cocktail hour to watch this crazy clown on Church Street.
I wonder if you find this as amusing as I do.
so pretty!
As the evening was winding down, the happy couple strolled over to Ben & Jerry's for some ice cream. So fun!

don't you just love happy endings?

Leah + Peter's Burlington Wedding

Leah & Peter's fabulous wedding has the distinct honor of being my 100th post! :-D

There were SO many things I loved about this wedding! Leah and Peter's wedding day was totally fun, fresh and unique. They tied the knot at the Unitarian Church at the top of Church Street and following the ceremony we had such a blast walking down to the reception near the waterfront at the beautiful new Waterfront Theatre.
Words can't describe how wonderful the day was, it will far easier to just show you...

Leah was absolutely stunning...Leah and her favorite friends began their day at the spanking new Marriot overlooking the lake.
what a view...
Yet another beautiful bouquet by Alison Bucholz-Ellis Floral Artistry...

Have you seen a happier bride?
Andy snapped up this beautiful moment after the ceremony...
magic light...
Shoppers and diners applauded for the happy couple and their wedding party paraded down Church Street and a street musician played "here comes the bride" on a pan flute. It was unforgettable!

cool reflection!


Peter was such a dashing groom!
Leah and her girlfriends danced up a storm to Grease Lightning...
Crazy in love...
Some romance at twilight...


Thanks for letting us share in the joy of your wedding day. I adore you both!!

Jessica & Josh e-session!

I met up with Jess and Josh on the beautiful University of Vermont campus recently. The campus has a special significance to them because they met while attending school there a few years ago.
They were such sports while I dragged them from one end of the campus to the other. And speaking of sports...Josh is the head coach of the UVM Men's Ice Hockey Club. What a cool job!
They're such a darling couple and can't you just see how crazy they are for each other?
We'll be photographing their wedding next month at the Stoweflake Resort in Stowe.
See you two soon!
