Coastal Weddings

George, from Coastal Life Photography, asked me to second with him again for a wonderful wedding held at Mystic Seaport and the Seamen’s Inne. Karen and Gerry make a beautiful couple; they were so relaxed all day–which makes for great smiles for the camera!

Again, I worked with the guys while they were getting ready and their bonding time pre-ceremony. The Seaport is such a cool place–lots and lots of places to make very different photos, and it’s really hard not to get into the period of the old whaling days. The guys took a walk thru the Charles Morgan (not my grandfather!!)-a restored 19th century whaler. The guys were particulary grateful they didn’t have to spend months hunched over, sleeping in 5 foot berths head to toe belowdecks with the smell of rendering blubber!

Aren’t they a handsome bunch! And Gerry so dapper, looks like a whale boat owner, standing at ease overseeing his vessel.

Nicole and Michael

were married at The Inn at Mystic with a great big fat Greek Wedding!
George, from Coastal Life Photography who I met at the Digital Wedding Forum conference in Mystic last January. asked if I’d be interested in working with him-uhm yeah! Mystic (my favorite non-Vineyard sea-village) and a Greek wedding too! Memories of seeing village weddings while I was studying in Greece came flooding back.

Nicole was so beautiful! Every detail was thought out and carried to perfection.

It was HOT! One of the hottest days I can remember–in June, no less–but everyone kept cool with lots of water and other libation. It was a black and white wedding, with gorgeous spring flowers adding the perfect color splashes against the green lawns, and black and white gowns and tuxes.

Michael and the guys goofed up a little after we did a little more serious formals; the guys were great fun, and their speeches were touching.

The Inn at Mystic is a fabulous venue with breath taking views, outstanding staff, service that is hard to beat.
