We spent an amazing summer day with Nicole and Matt last weekend at their wedding. We first met them nearly one year ago and we knew that we would have a ton of fun together after photographing their engagement session last November. During their engagement session we spent an entire afternoon roaming around the Boston waterfront and around the North End and then for the next nine months waited on pins and needles for their wedding to arrive!
And it was so worth the wait! Nicole and Matt had their ceremony at St. John’s Prep in Danvers which is Matt’s alma mater. The school and chapel are set on incredibly picturesque grounds and I got goosebumps watching Nicole and her dad arrive in a vintage Rolls Royce in front of everyone.
Nicole and Matt also decided to see each other privately before the ceremony and we were so honored to be able to capture that incredibly emotional moment. We had a unique vantage point and were able to capture both of their emotions at that moment which made it all that much more special!
After the ceremony we all drove to the gorgeous Tupper Manor at Endicott College in Beverly. Rene and I were almost giddy with all of the phenomenal locations we found for photos! Here are a few of our favorites:

And I have to say that I truly believe Nicole is the epitome of elegance in this next image…

And we were so tickled to let Nicole and Matt have a little moment to themselves with all of this beautiful lighting and gorgeous shadows around them…

There are so many more to share including one of the best first dances we have ever seen!! Nicole and Matt told us they had a surprise but we never expected the incredible performance that they had perfected - it was just awesome! So even though they’re still having fun on their honeymoon, their entire gallery is ready and waiting for them as soon as they get home!
