This little precious little one is a gift for everyone around her. Born on the day Tsvetelina + Jerry had their first date, she was truly fated to be. I can tell this girl will have her parents wrapped around her finger. With one eye open, she is always paying attention to everything around her.
It's amazing how time flies by, it seems like no time has passed since we were at their wedding at Searles Castle last June. We can't wait to see her grow up!
When we first spent time with Nicole and Steve during their engagement session, we knew their wedding was going to be a blast. After climbing over 6' tall snowbanks, they are the type of couple photographers dream about - happy, relaxed and ready to party!
Their reception took place at the The Red Lion Inn Resort in Cohasset. Pretty much the number 1 perfect spot to have a beautiful fall wedding. The foliage was at its height and the decor couldn't have been prettier against the rustic backdrop. Tom Brady made multiple appearances throughout the night and it just so happens that the Pats won the game on the Trolley ride over to the ceremony. It definitely meant good luck and good times for the rest of the night!
We had the honor of photographing the classy black tie wedding of a very special couple in a place and date that means so much to them. They first met at Boston College and had their first date on October 17th. 7 years later to the day, they are tied the knot at the gorgeous Church of St. Ignatius Loyola in the heart of Boston College.
After the ceremony, they exited with style from a white handkerchief sendoff to a classic 1955 Thunderbird. After a quick stop at Linden Lane in front of Gasson Hall, we drove to their reception at Alden Castle. The rest of the night was filled with laughs and impressive dance moves!
You won't ever find a classier wedding than this Newport fairytale. The girls got ready at Forty 1° North (the site of that amazing shell wall). We then headed over by trolley to St. Joseph's Parish for a full catholic ceremony. Afterwards we drove to Belle Mer right as the sun was setting over the Newport Bridge. Mollie and Mayur have an incredible love story (think Romeo and Juliette with a happy ending). It fits that these two hoteliers would have a romantic high fashion wedding to remember!
What a fantastic couple we had the luck to be able to capture at the beautiful La Belle Winery. Their details were out of this world and the love they have between them is truly inspiring.
We are so lucky to have the best clients ever. Paige is one of those awesome chill brides you always hear about. Jim spent a lot of time in the air as his groomsmen kept lifting him up on the golf course and on the dance floor. There were so many hilarious moments throughout the day.
The excitement and anticipation before their ceremony at St Luke's Parish turned to joy and laughter during their reception. The Charter Oak Country Club was absolutely gorgeous with the fall leaves at their peak! What an amazing, beautiful, fun wedding! Congrats, guys, and enjoy Maui!
What a perfect day for the perfect wedding! Their ceremony and reception took place at the stunning Tupper Manor amongst their loving friends and family. They warned us ahead of time about the crazy dancing we were going to see. Literally EVERYONE was on the dancefloor the entire night including the 3 year olds, the 80 year olds and even their Jp. What a fun, beautiful and memorable day. Congratulations Christina and James, you two rock!
There's something so special about this quiet New England island right off the coast of Rhode Island. What better place to have an incredible engagement session, especially since it means so much to Alison and Jeff who know the island well. We spent the whole day exploring the beaches, the lighthouse and vistas. Stopping along the way for a champagne toast and even a few beers as the sun was setting. We will always remember this relaxing day and can't wait for their wedding in Newport next year!
Mary + Leon's wedding is day none of us here at Lovely Valentine will ever forget. We spent the day with a couple who clearly love each other with such passion and we were honored to be there to capture their special day. The traditional Cathlolic Vietimese ceremony took place at the St Anthony of Padua Church. Afterwards, we took the bridal party to Downtown Boston and had the rare opportunity to bump into Rob Gronkowski! We finished up the night at the Empire Garden Restaurant, full of dancing and laughter. We wish Mary + Leon a lifetime of love and happiness!
What a fun group of people we had the luck to spend this amazing day with! Lina + Steve had a beautiful ceremony and reception at The Oceanview of Nahant. The night was full of dancing and laugher. Congrats to the lovely couple! You deserve all the happiness in the world!
Sarah and Joe certainly are loving people who we will always remember not only for the love they showed for their family and friends but also to us. At one point Sarah actually offered her slice of cake and her drink to me! The warmth they have and their giving spirits is truly an inspiration.
They met at the local Saloon bar (awesome spot for anyone in the Davis square area). They instantly had a connection and their lives were forever changed when Joe proposed during a sleigh ride as the snow was falling around them. What a romantic!
This couple is going to have a big wedding next August and to prepare, we made the trek out to western mass to capture their engagement session. We began at the perfectly wonderful Look Park. We then traveled to the Great River Bridge in Westfield, a special place for Erick since he worked on the project. What an amazing view between twin bridges! These two look absolutely radiant and we can't wait for their big Portuguese wedding next year.
Friday we had the pleasure of spending the day with Miss Grace and her parents. We were so impressed by how calm and sweet Grace was. She slept through her entire session and was a dream.
Nick is a firefighter and in the Coast Guard, so we made sure to add a little something sentimental to her newborn session. We also made sure to celebrate the change of seasons by adding a pop of red, orange and yellow to her nest. We can't wait for this family to come see us again soon!
With such a colorful couple like Kellie & Steven, it's no surprise that their officiant was NASA astronaut and ISS Commander Michael Lopez-Alegria. The two tied the knot beneath a vibrant arbor at the Woodstock Inn & Resort and were quickly escorted off by three Storm Troopers.
Kellie and Steven are adventurous, to say the least. Their idea for a relaxing vacation is spending an entire week in North Korea. Their passion for the extreme is what brought them together and what continues to strengthen their love.
It's funny how people come together. Cara and Enget met through Vui, Enget's sister who thought that Cara would be the perfect fit for her brother. After a romantic proposal at Cara's graduation ceremony, the two decided to tie the Knot at Waverly Oaks Golf Club.
We first met Enget at a wedding (shout out to Kelly + Louis!) as he was capturing their video as part of his brilliant Wedding4Wedding project. We loved their carefree style and had so much fun capturing their beautiful day! In case you couldn't tell, their lovable Dachshund Moose was the guest of honor. With the hot dog theme on virtually every detail, it's clear these guys love their pup and made him part of their celebration. We absolutely love this couple and wish them a lifetime of wet doggie kisses. Congrats guys!
This couple wow-ed us from the start. After their classic Boston engagement session, they were totally at ease in front of the camera while their love for each other shined through. This Saturday was supposed to be rainy but it was miraculously a beautiful day! Their ceremony took place at the Danversport Yacht Club while tears and smiles graced them as they wed. The rest of the night was filled with epic dancing.
Dan's a lucky man to marry a talented dancer like Lindsay but I have to give him credit for his incredible moves during their wedding! He not only nailed the lifts but even started a conga line that wound all the way around the dance floor. We are so lucky to be a part of such a beautiful and fun wedding. Congrats guys!
Have you heard? Nestled, by Lovely Valentine offers maternity, newborn and family portraits from our studio!
Theresa came by last week and we had a great time capturing her last pregnancy. She and her husband have three beautiful children and are expecting a baby girl next week. We can't wait to meet Miss Maeve Ellen later this month!
We are excited to announce that Justina + Chris's Searles Castle wedding is featured on The Knot! Their romantic and traditional wedding has been catching a lot of eyes lately.
Here's some exciting news for your Monday: Katelyn + Ryan's The Towers wedding has been featured on The Knot! We absolutely love the details from this military wedding with a nautical twist.
Wow, what a perfect night to walk around Gloucester! We begain at Cressy Beach and ended up taking a walk by the Eastern Point Lighthouse. Mary and Leon have been so much fun to spend time with and they definitely brought their A game to this lovely evening session. I can't wait to see what their fashionista style will bring on their wedding day in October!
