Fun Friday | Backyard Fine Art

It's been a while since my last Fun Friday post and I'm super excited about these images. Maybe the most excited I've been about any personal fine art work in a while. One thing I personally struggle with is to see the beauty that surrounds my everyday life. I get caught in starting into a computer for hours mode, or running errands, or another one of my goals this year to get back into long distance running, or gym and the list goes on....So it's easier to plan a dedicated photo trip, an adventure somewhere I've never been or a place I love. To see something for the first time often has a more immediate sense of wonder to it. Yosemite, The Tetons, Big Sur, Acadia to name a few favorites. But it's always rewarding to look deeper and more closely at what we walk by each and every day. My backyard happens to be a State Park, and I am so grateful for it. It doesn't always present itself with a wealth of photographic opportunity but after the other night I think I need to simply look closer (and having a camera with me doesn't hurt). Enjoy and happy Friday.

Willowbend Country Club | Cape Cod wedding photography

Cape Cod weddings always feel like a little destination get-away. Sure it's only an hour or so from my house but you've got the beach, the ocean, beautiful people getting married...they are always a blast. And one of my favorite venues is in Mashpee, Willowbend Country Club. Top notch in so many ways. Gorgeous property, great suites for the bridal party to get ready in, the food is always amazing and if you like golf then it's pretty much a given :)
But to Emily and Rob. I actually went to high school with Emily (way back in the day), and I was really honored when she inquired about me photographing her wedding. Maybe I say it too much, or maybe not enough, but I truly do think it's an honor to be asked to photograph someone's wedding day. That person puts a lot of trust in me to create beautiful photographs and to document one of the big milestone days in their lives. Even though I'm always trying to have fun with every client and especially on the wedding day, I never forget what a big deal it is to each and every couple. We met up a few months before the wedding day and did their engagement shoot around Fenway Park so that was a great way to tie into some of the Boston roots. Emily and Rob were traveling from NY to get married on Cape Cod and I am so glad they had such an amazing day. Here's a look at a few favorites - thank you again guys!
