Michelle & Jacob: Rockport, MA Wedding!!

Like so many couples, they met at work. She was new and a colleague stopped her so that she could meet the IT guy and get a new company phone. She looked up and her eyes met those of the IT guy and and they shared a moment. One of those moments. Call them what you will…game-changers, watershed moments, kick-you-in-the-shins-and-knock-you-over-with-clarity moments. Whatever your name for them, these moments alter you irrevocably and, sometimes, the course of your life takes a turn you never saw coming. They grabbed their shared moment softly, beginning with lessons in how to use Michelle’s Blackberry and allowing it to deepen into friendship and abiding respect and eventually into love. Jake’s an amazing listener and makes those around him feel valued. Michelle knows her mind and isn’t afraid to love wholeheartedly. Their love and lives grew together over rounds of golf and the world’s cutest puggle, and I couldn’t be more thrilled or honored to have been a part of their wedding day!






The guys all had custom ties!



Michelle + Jacob chose to see one another and connect before their ceremony! First look by the adorable Pigeon Cove? Yes, please!!










The ceremony on the staircase of the Emerson Inn By The Sea was so intimate and warm!



Married!

Thank you Cindy!!! We love the photos!

Kaitlin & Matthew: Newburyport Engagements!

Kaitlin and Matthew met on UNH’s campus…college sweethearts who turned into so much more! It was only natural then that we grab some engagement portraits where their story began before heading to their current home in Newburyport, MA!

You know I love a little fur-baby action!! How adorable is their sweet cat!?!?!

Kaitlin and Matthew!! You guys are awesome!! I can’t wait for next fall!!
