I’ve shot in Rockport, MA a few times in the past year, so when Ashley and John got in touch to ask about coverage for their wedding day by the sea, I couldn’t wait to hear what they had planned. They are based on Long Island in New York and were going to be traveling to Rockport to have their special day by the coast with their friends and family and I had the pleasure of capturing their photos.

I knew these guys were going to be great fun the day that I met them,  and that it would be another fun day photographing in Rockport. Although I’m not based out of Rockport, I will always gladly travel to this wonderful part of the state to cover a wedding. It has become one of my favorite spots along the Massachusetts coastline.

Ashley and John were getting ready at the Rockport Inn and Suites, a location I have actually shot at a number of times before, so it was a nice familiar start to the day for me. Both the bride and groom were very relaxed, and with John joined by all his brothers and Ashley with her sister and friend it was a very fun and easygoing morning all around.

Ashley and John were due to get married at Halibut Point State Park, but the late Fall weather turned a little too cold that day, and they decided to make the call early and move the ceremony indoors to the Rockport Arts Association instead. This turned out to be a wise call and was a good example of why it is important to have a back up plan for your outdoor ceremony in case  Mother Nature turns up in a bad mood.

Ashley and John were doing a first look, and we were able to get ready for this at the waterfront in the very heart of Rockport. It was a great setting, and the local candy store allowed us to shoot from inside their premises, which gave us a few unique images and some amazing double chocolate fudge as well! As Ashley and John had decided to do a first look, it meant that we had lots of opportunities to explore the area and get their Rockport wedding photos in a number of different locations. We also had the time to head to Halibut Point State Park to get all the family and bridal party shots as well.

Although the weather wasn’t the best that could have been hoped for, it was still nice enough to head to the State Park and spend some time there. After capturing all of the family groups, we took a little more time and got Ashley and John some great images outdoors at the State Park as well.

The ceremony had moved into one of the fantastic rooms at the Rockport Arts Association and it perfectly fit all of Ashley and John’s friends and family. This is a really great room and a wonderful space to hold a wedding. After the ceremony, it was straight into the festivities and it was an absolute pleasure to have been able to capture these in full until the end of the night for the newlyweds. Thank you to Ashley and John for letting me be a part of their wonderful Rockport wedding day and celebrations. I wish John and Ashley all the very best for the future together.

I could leave without getting them a wedding photo at the Rockport Arts Association that worked in the wonderful lights in the beautiful courtyard and this was one of my favorite images of the day.

BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY ENGAGEMENT SESSION – MIKE AND DENISE

I’m shooting Mike and Denise’s wedding in April next year in Boston, but I had the great pleasure of capturing their engagement photos this year at the Boston Public Library. It is a very unique space in the heart of Boston and offers a myriad of shooting opportunities, from the wonderful courtyard to the fascinating interior. The location couldn’t have been any more fitting as Denise is a Librarian herself, and both her and Mike have always enjoyed the Boston Public Library as a place to visit and spend time together.

BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY ENGAGEMENT SESSION – MIKE & DENISE

We started off shooting outside the main entrance that leads out onto Copley Square. The front of the Boston Public Library has a sense of grandeur that is hard to beat and made for the perfect starting point for their engagement session. We actually finished off here as well at the end of the night, to make use of the lights that came on after dark. Taking the time to grab some shots here was also a relaxing way to start the session and get Mike and Denise comfortable in front of the camera, which took all of two seconds. These guys were super fun to shoot and I’m really looking forward to their big day next April.

After capturing some shots outside we moved into the main courtyard, a spot I had been looking forward to shooting in ever since I had first seen it earlier this year. The white walls surrounding the courtyard produce a wonderful quality of light and the architecture feels like a European city rather than being in the center of Boston. The pillars, archways and fountain as well as the manicured gardens make for a great Boston engagement session location or wedding venue.

We wanted to make use of the space in a number of different ways and also after dark, when the fountain was lit by the lights within. After initially shooting here while the daylight lingered in the sky, we moved inside to capture more of the interior before coming back out for a nighttime session.

The Boston Public Library is as fun to shoot inside as it is outside and the number of spots to work with is fantastic, you just have to make sure you’re quiet :) Shooting in the main section of the library with it’s trademark green lamps and the high intricate ceilings framed Mike and Denise to give us some great shots inside, to compliment the ones we had captured outside. It’s always nice to come away from an engagement shoot and have a nice solid variety in the photos and the Boston Public Library sure does give you that opportunity.

Heading back out to finish the Boston Public Library engagement session we made use of the staircase again as we had on the way in. I like to be fluid when I shoot and capturing photos as we move through spaces, often using them again in a different way if we pass through them again. The light had faded into the night as we moved back outside to the main courtyard again and the fountain was lit beautifully, illuminating the water and the statue. Using a video light and some off camera flashes I was able to illuminate the background as well, to show off the wonderful pillared archways in the background and Mike and Denise have taken tango lessons and so we had to get at least one of their moves into the shoot as well.. The last shot we captured was back outside, where we had started, as I had wanted to get them a shot in front of the library after dark as well. It was great fun shooting with you both and as I said really looking forward to next April.

ROCKPORT ENGAGEMENT SESSION – ASHLEY & JOHN

Ashley and John are getting married in Rockport at Halibut Point State Park in September this year.  We met up at the end of last month, to visit a few of the locations and do a Rockport engagement session as well, while they were both up from Long Island to sort out some more of the details for the day.

The town of Rockport is a wonderful place in itself and Halibut Point States Park is a truly beautiful location to have their ceremony. Only a short drive from Rockport town center, this State park is site to an old quarry right next to the ocean and beach. They are going to have a ceremony over looking both, in late fall and I can’t wait to work with them both again for that.

We started of at the entrance to the park, at an old out building. This provided a great backdrop to get going and definitely gave it that New England feel. After shooting here we quickly moved on into the park, as the number of locations on offer were fantastic.

I have shot e-sessions in Rockport before and every time I come back here I like the place more and more. Being a Massachusetts wedding photographer I offer coverage throughout New England, although find that most of the time, I shoot in and around Boston. I always relish the chance to get out of the city and to the coast and this day was a really great one to be by the sea.

We made a looped trip around the quarry and took the chance of popping down to the beach as well; giving us a great variety to the look and feel of their New England engagement photography.

I don’t think that you can come to Rockport for an engagement or your wedding photography and not try to get the famous red lobster house in at least some of the shots. Once we were in town we grabbed a cup of coffee, because although the sun was shining it was a little colder than it looked, and then headed straight there. Ashley and John were a real pleasure to work with and I’m looking forward to getting back to Rockport in the Fall for their wedding day.
