Kim & Brian 06.21.2008

After a wonderful engagement session last fall, and a family 50thAnniversary/75thBirthday party in November, I was quite excited that it was finally time for Kim and Brian's amazing sea side ceremony at the Seacoast Science Center in Rye, NH. Kim arrived with her mom and dad and sisters and met up with Brian at the coast line for a ceremony that had everyone in tears.

I LOVE this photo of Kim as she pulls up in her dads truck - Kim, you looked AMAZING!

their readings and vows were just perfect - not everyone can make the words 'smarter consumer' sound so romantic - but Kim pulled it off with grace.

Brian is so tender with Kim - you can tell that he is just in awe to be around her, and she him - a wonderful match!

What and AMAZING location they picked - and such perfect weather.

Kim's friends from college wanted to give her something to think fondly of them on - when I joshingly suggested the Charlie's Angels pose they knew exactly what to do - and oh did they!

I loved watching all the kids climb around on the rocks looking in the tide pools - I think they might never have stopped and the sun not gone down.

But not with out an absolutely wonderful sunset - I could live forever in the glow of a sunset!

Two thumbs up!! Congratulations Kim & Brian! Your hard work was evident but not nearly as evident as your love for each other!

We've looked at them over and over...LOVE them! You did such a nice job. Many of our friends and family have sent compliments as well! It's going to take a while for us to pick which ones we want!

Thanks,
Kim

75 Years Young!

Dave & 'E' are an amazing couple. They've raised 7 children, are on their way to their 11th grandchild, married 50 years this past October and will celebrate their 75th birthdays 6 days apart come this March. I was thrilled to be referred by one of my brides, Kim to her sister in law who was coordinating this lovely gathering full of old friends, family & memorabilia. They all met up from near and far at the Galley Hatch in Hampton, NH for a great party the day after Thanksgiving.

Kim & Brian's Engagement Shoot

Kim & Brian are one of my wedding couples scheduled for June 2008. They decided to take advantage of my engagement photo option on their wedding agreement and we met up in Prescott Park in Portsmouth, NH this past weekend.

The weather could not have been more perfect; quintessential autumn in New England.

We had to 'work around' the chili festival that was going on, but it proved to be a fun atmosphere and the live band made it feel more like a party than a photography shoot.




























I just love looking at these! I've showed them to many people - youare getting lots of compliments! Brian's sister will be gettingmarried in a few years (when she's out of school) and she was sayingthat she would like to use you!
