While their original plans had to be altered, Naomi & Andy were able to have a huge wedding in their hearts thanks to live streaming.
Because of Naomi & Andy's strong religious beliefs, they held numerous heart-felt prayers. They held a prayer right before becoming husband and wife, had a joyous ceremony where great friends and pastors said prayers to welcome them as newlyweds, and had a prayer over their rings before placing them on one another's fingers..

Kelly & Erin chose their venue because it is extremely special and meaningful.
It is their friends Laura & Sarah’s new home which they offered especially for their wedding. They became their “framily”, as they are lovingly-dubbed, in Brooklyn, but have since relocated to Maine in order to be surrounded by beautiful nature.

College sweethearts Tom & Missy had a meet-cute during their time as orientation advisors at their university.
Turtles & squids brought Tom & Missy together in the form of fun, odd, and perhaps unrealistic drawings on Missy’s script for a play they were mutually performing in. From that day they knew they had something wonderful and their story soared.

Their day was beautiful, elegant, and sophisticated. Tad planned a stunning day full of small touches that made their wedding so personal. From having Cricket their pup attend the ceremony, to a custom Crawford logo drawn from The Boston Athenaeum's real logo, to a collection of port to accompany the well-crafted desserts, everything came together wonderfully.

The South End in Boston was a beautiful location for portraits because of its timeless Boston brick and cobblestone streets. Howie donned a matching black coat with his mom and smiled throughout his entire session. Being a senior pug, he enjoys long naps (with extreme snoring), loads of treats, and many many hugs and snuggles from mom.

The Burlington Waterfront during a summer sunset is one of the greatest places to be in Vermont. Jacob will be going into his senior year of high school while at the same time beginning his first year of college.
Jacob brought Sydney, his two year old puggle (Pug & Beagle mix). She enjoyed saying hi to almost everybody who passed us. (She especially wanted to play with the big dogs).
