Rama & Beth: Alyson’s Orchard Wedding on 11.11.11

January 7, 2012 by Anne

What a date! Rama & Beth wed on November 11th, 2011 in the Keene, New Hampshire. The weather really kept us on our toes that day as it was filled with sun, then snow, then sun, then rain, then snow, and then clearing night skies! Keene is filled with old New England charm, one way streets, shops, and churches. They said their I do’s at the Keene Unitarian Universalist Church, and then celebrated with friends and family at Alyson’s Orchard in Walpole, NH. What a place! They have hills, landscapes, lakes, and a lovely barn like structure to host the reception in. We walked all over the grounds right before the sunset, and caught some beautiful light. They were so sweet, and constantly filled each other with love and laughter. The Big City Band played great music for all to dance into the wee hours of the night. Thank you Beth & Rama, it was such a pleasure to capture your special day!

Jason & Erin: All You Need Is Love

December 10, 2011 by Anne

Jason & Erin tied the knot on October 15th, 2011 at the Stone Mountain Arts Center in Brownfield, Maine. From the moment I met Erin, I knew her wedding was going to be a special one. With a keen sense of design, her special day was just filled with beautiful little details, and of course memorable moments throughout the day. They wed in the main barn, and then we dodged in and out of the rain squalls when shooting the family, bridal party, and newly wed portraits. We went to one of my favorite old rustic barns just down the road, that actually is owned by one of her family friends a the wedding! We also had some sweet shots on the dirt road right outside of the Stone Mountain Arts Center (aka the SMAC). Erin and Jason have a strong passion for music (hence why they connected with the SMAC) and you could see this in their place cards to seat their friends and family during dinner- they were mini record covers! As you will see below, the Beatles are one of their favorites. Dancing into the night was held in the newer Quisisana Barn that the SMAC recently built, and it had such a great festive feel that kept everyone dancing until the last moment. Thank you Erin and Jason! It was so fun to capture your wedding day, I simply loved it!
