Jaime+Eric | Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico

weddings

I first met Jaime and Eric when they came down to do some scouting for their wedding back in February. As we were in the middle of our meeting (I use that term loosely since we really just hung out and chat) Eric got the news that his new rugby television show (he is the chairman of the Canada Rugby League) was green lit so we were already off to a great start. Jaime is no slouch herself being an incredible designer and writing her awesome food blog The Tomato Snob. She has some great recipes on there some of which I have actually attempted and more or less failed most of the time, but they still come out pretty delicious. It’s not important how they look it’s how they taste right? (Says the photographer…)

They spent the day with 60 of their friends and family at Dreams Villa Magna in Nuevo Vallarta. After the wedding they came up to San Pancho for a few days and we got to hang out and take some photos in the ruins and around town. Those will be up on Monday.

Their wedding is also being featured in the new Wedding Bells magazine hitting newsstands this week. Congrats guys!

Cindy+Scott | Newport, RI

weddings

Cindy and Scott were married in Newport, RI at the Atlantic Beach Club. It was awesome to be able to go back home to hang out and be a part of their day. I have to give a big shout out to my agents Jess and Brian whose wedding I shot last year in Zihuatanejo and who are just all around awesome people. They were at Connery and Pash’s wedding in Wellesley, MA and put me in touch with Scott and Cindy. Now they just need more friends to get married so we can party again!

Oh and side note: best wedding crasher ever. Keep an eye out.

Connery+Pash | Wellesley, MA

weddings

This wedding kicked serious ass. It was a three day extravanganza in Wellesley, MA and I was so lucky to be a part of it. I first met Connery and Pash in Zihuatanejo while shooting Jess and Brian’s destination wedding. When they asked me to fly up to Massachusetts to be a part of their day I was more than happy to do so. It works out well since I get to go visit friends and family and shoot a few weddings along the way.

In addition to being awesome peeps they both have amazing families. Pash’s family is originally from Ghana and if you’ve never been a part of a Ghanian dance party or partaken in the amazing food you are totally missing out. I was lucky enough to be a part of not one, but two dance parties and ate my way through the country at brunch the day after the wedding.

The welcome party was held at Wellesley College which is also where we did portraits before the ceremony.

The girls got ready at the Hotel Indigo in Newton and the boys got ready at Pash’s childhood home. Then it was off to Wellesley College for photos. The ceremony was presided over Pash’s father who is a minister at Wellesley Congregational Church.

The day after the wedding there was a brunch held at the Obeng house. I wasn’t technically working, but when I saw the incredible Ghanian clothing that the women wore (and the custom pieces that were made for Pash, Connery, and the rest of her family) I had to take a few shots.
