The ceremony
An outdoor ceremony with family officiating changes what the photos are about. There's no venue to feature — the frames are Tony waiting at the front, Mary coming in with her bouquet, her dad's face as he speaks, the bridesmaids and groomsmen a few feet away, and the two of them at the altar under the open sky. Every look between them felt genuine and full of love, and the wide ceremony frames show why: everyone there was someone they'd chosen.
Details and portraits
The details came before and between: the bouquet, the rings, a champagne toast, the cake with its custom toppers. Then portraits in the autumn light — the two of them alone, a black-and-white kiss, the wedding party together, the bridesmaids celebrating. Small weddings give you time for these; there's no timeline breathing down your neck.
The reception
The day finished with the reception and the cake — twenty-four frames in this gallery, and not one of them posed in a way that would have felt strange to the two of them. A day that was personal, joyful, and deeply meaningful.
If you're planning an intimate wedding in Boston
- Four hours of coverage is usually the right length for a ceremony, portraits and the start of the reception — that's The Intimate package, $3,349.
- If a family member is officiating, tell me. I'll make sure their face is in the frames, not just the two of you.
- Autumn light in Boston is short and low — I'll schedule the portraits for the best forty minutes of it.
- What things cost and why is in the Boston wedding photography cost guide; the vendors I'd trust are in the Boston wedding vendor guide; and wedding coverage starts at $2,649.
