Fantastical, Historical Autumnal LGBTQ Providence Wedding

I’ve been waiting with bated breath for Marlowe and Rae’s wedding day. Ever since meeting them at their enchanted forest tea party engagement session, I knew this would be something absolutely spectacular. These two have been working tirelessly to create an experience for themselves and their guests that would be unforgettable, beautiful, drenched in detail, and fantastical in nature. Marlowe and Rae both designed their ensembles, as well as made them by hand. Their first look was drenched in sunlight through the trees by a fountain, where they could both enjoy the fruits of their labor coming together beautifully.

Autumnal, Woodsy LGBTQ Wedding

Shira (they/them) and Colin (he/him) were wed at a lakeside summer camp in New Hampshire. They both have a deep love for the outdoors and sought to share that with their many loved ones on their wedding day — and boy did they succeed! It was a day of music, joy, song and dance — and really, really good food. And, the rain even stopped right in time for them! What more could one ask for on their wedding day?

Genderqueer Springtime Wedding at Hartman's Herb Farm

Laughter erupts over the swath of white chairs dotting the lawn at Harman’s Herb Farm. What the Studio Audience does not know is that in another minute they will be crying. (What the wedding photographer does not know is that the hanky they snatched from the strategically-placed-hanky-basket at the greeting line will not, after all, be exclusively used for polishing their lens.)

Bet you’ve never seen a slam poetry reading at a wedding. Bet you’ve never seen several. But that’s just the way Truj and Brian roll.

Tea and Fantasy: An Enchanted Forest LGBTQ Engagement, Providence RI

Rae (he/him) and Marlowe (they/them) have what I personally believe to be the Ideal in a relationship: creative harmony. They constantly pursue enrichment through the arts: from their professions, to their communities, to the clothes they wear — often handmade. When they contacted me about capturing their engagement and wedding, I knew from our first conversation we would get along. Rae and Marlowe’s lives are opportunities for creating, and I felt that when I met them, and felt that even more when I captured their engagement.

Autumnal LGBTQ Vineyard Wedding - Virginia

I met Nate at Emerson College back when we were in school - it’s kinda crazy how time flies, thinking about it. Amidst marketing major blues, Nate was a pal that I could always sit next to and crack jokes with (I mean, totally pay total one hundred percent attention, totally!). So when he asked if I could photograph his wedding with his beautiful bride CJ, I was really touched and excited.
