Just gotta love a Greek wedding!

Haverhill, MA – Greek weddings are full of tradition, dancing and money flying everywhere. What’s not to love?

This was a perfectly gorgeous September wedding at the Holy Apostles Church in Haverhill, MA. We enjoy photographing Greek Orthodox weddings because there is always a deep sense of ceremony and family. This leads to tremendous opportunities for us as wedding photographers. John and Jessy chose DiBurro’s for there reception and everything went off without a hitch. DiBurro’s does a great job at taking excellent care of the guests and wedding party. After the formalities the reception just went crazy with traditional  dancing. So much fun and that’s another reason to love these weddings! Stay tuned for the photo booth from this wedding!

Congratulations to John + Jessy!

Ella’s 3 Month Old Portraits!

Lowell, MA – Ella was a doll to photograph during her three month old portraits. Even though it was her first time in the studio, Ella engaged the camera extremely well for this age, so you can imagine our excitement during the shoot.

Ogunquit, ME – On a beautiful evening in May we had the pleasure of photographing Angela + Sean’s engagement session. We always like the couple to choose their location because it gives the experience a little familiarity for them and is a tremendous ice breaker between photographer and subject. They chose their favorite vacation spot, Ogunquit Maine.

“You won’t really know if you got it, so keep shooting”

Lowell, MA - This was one of the most high energy family sessions of last year. But what do you do when these sweet and adorable kids are so full of energy and can hardly stay still? In this case we got a lot of support from Mom and Dad (crucial to any family session), and we also took a ton of pictures. It was like shooting sports, where you follow the action and trust your auto focus. And of course we photographed the whole family together at the beginning of the session, when the kids were still warming up to the studio environment. After that we kind of just let them be themselves (which is our natural style anyway), as opposed to trying to pose them. The best part about a high energy session is that when you are looking back at your images your realize that you’ve captured their personalities perfectly.

Destination Massachusetts

Lowell, MA - Rachael+Ariel are planning their June wedding in Lenox, MA at the beautiful Seven Hills Inn. It’s actually a destination wedding for them and the majority of their guests because they are currently living in Florida. In fact they drove up only days before our engagement session. That’s a tough commute to get some wedding planning done, but we were delighted to hear that we’d have a chance to meet and have an engagement session before the wedding.

It’s pretty important for the couple and their photographers to get to know each other before the wedding. Engagement sessions are an opportunity to break the ice, have fun and make some pictures.

The Anticipation

Plymouth, MA - Between the organized chaos of the girls getting ready and they guys trying to figure out how to put on their tuxedos, there is just so much happening during the anticipation of a wedding. There are quiet moments of reflection, jokes and laughter, maybe some tears and an overwhelming feeling that everyone involved absolutely loves the bride and groom.

As wedding photographers, this is when we are anticipating the moments, both big and small. It also needs to be said that images from the getting ready are important in laying out the wedding day story. Like the beginnings of a book, they introduce the characters and set the tone for the images to come.

Kids Being Kids

As families grow so do its individual members.  It’s important to us to capture each child at their particular stage in their life, so we would never photograph a 2 year old the same way we would a 6 year old. Having them bring in objects (toys, books, games and dress-ups) that they love sometimes helps bring out their individuality. It’s also important that the kids have fun during the session because that’s when we can capture their true personalities.

Sessions with siblings are usually very high energy and it can be challenging to keep their interest for the entire session. However, when we love photographing brothers and sisters together because when they interact with each other it is completely genuine. Even if the photography experience is new to them, they have their support network right there and that adds to the atmosphere both in the studio and on location.

Our job is pretty fun, don’t you think?

A Smooth Transition from Wedding Photography into Family Photography

Lowell, MA – Here’s a look at Addison’s newborn portraits from last fall. She was about a month old at the time and did a great job posing it up for the camera. Of course our favorite photo is the one where her older brother is holding her… priceless!

Our venture into family photography started when our wedding clients began having children. They would call us with their exciting news and in that instant we moved beyond the role of wedding photographer into the role of family photographer. The experience of a wedding really brings us into the lives of our clients, so when it is time for them to start a family they can still rely on our photography to capture the joy and love of family.
